A great, well priced location.
Location, affordability, great staff

I've stayed here several times and am happy to keep coming back. It's affordable, comfortable, and quiet. It's *just* outside the city, but a number 75 tram is just a few hundred metres away, making access to everything easy. It's a short walk to Rod Laver arena and the tennis centre. It's certainly not a luxury hotel, but I've always considered my money better served elsewhere while travelling! It's a warm comfortable bed, a lovely hot shower, and really great staff.
My only warning is the restaurant downstairs. It's disappointing. It'd be so great to be able to have a lovely, proper breakfast, but the selection really isn't great. So if you get the skybus in from the airport, quickly duck into the 7-eleven at Southern Cross Station and stock up on a few staples before you jump on your connecting mini bus out to the Mantra. Fill your belly with some toast or crackers and then go off and eat in the city rather than spending $40 for two people to have a substandard breaky.
Other than that, it's the perfect place to stay!

great location, very cold as no working heater

we had a relative stay, we were freezing in the room as the heater did not work and was only
given $40.00 off the price. we froze and could not get comfortable all night. for the money we paid, i would have expected a better stay.

i was disappointed, with the stay at the mantra
3.3
the room was freezing, when we asking for assistance, we were told to change the mode of which there was not a mode button, so we froze. not enough pillows, the room had not been cleaned properly, the remote control for the tv needed batteries so we had a hard time trying to use the tv. the staff in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast were lovely and friendly, reception staff were nice, they did get us a taxi on time. i was disappointed with our stay, its a lot of money for not to much.

our stay was enjoyable plenty of room to relax service was excellent the only concern was the mattress was very hard and we thought the sheets were a bit substandard for a quality hotel, but overall an enjoyable time.

Best hotel for MCG events!
Proximity to MCG, great bar, spacious room

Really enjoyed our stay at Mantra on Jolimont as we were attending the footy at MCG - only a 5 min walk away!! Safe parking, nice bar/buffet breakfast, comfortable room with clean apartment style facilities & lovely staff. The morning train noise,as our room was overlooking the train tracks, was the only thing against it. I also left something behind in the room & the staff were very helpful in arranging its return.
