The room was so quaint and manageable. My single room window also looked out onto the Main Street. The breakfast was 15 dollars and filling. The gym was empty and had what a needed for a daily morning workout!

Travelled with my mother and we had 2 single beds. Could not access the safe easily as bed covered the door. The room was so small, and noisy as our room backed on to a vented area with some sort of motor that ran all night. The water was hot which was great.
Response from Property: Hi Peta,Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the hot water, but we’re sorry to hear that the room size and noise from the vent affected your stay. We also apologise for the inconvenience with the safe and the bed arrangement.We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention, and we will look into improving the room setup and addressing the noise issue to enhance our guests' experience.We hope to welcome you back for a more comfortable stay in the future.Kind regards,ibis Styles Kingsgate Hotel

Great location. Very convenient - can walk to tram stops and can walk to a nearby Coles and Woolies.  The only downside - the second pillow was a bit stinky which I realized late at night. Just ended up not using it instead of asking for a replacement.

I had a very disappointing experience at this Ibis hotel, which was by far the worst Ibis I’ve ever stayed in unlike the other blones which i swore by :  1. No Basic Amenities in the Room: The fridge was empty—not even water was provided, even for purchase. I had to go down to the concierge at midnight just to buy water after a long journey. Additionally, the fridge was leaking, and my items got wet. 2. Inconvenient Room Setup: • The plug point was far from the bed, making it inconvenient to charge my phone while resting. • There were no slippers provided in the room, and I had to request and collect them myself. 3. Poor Bathroom Design: • The shower was poorly designed, causing water to pool on the floor. • There was nowhere to hang or place my toiletries inside the shower, so I had to put them on the floor, where they got wet. 4. Lack of Essentials: yes its  a 3-star hotel, but i expected IBIS to have more facilities, just like other 3 star ibis hotels ive been to lets say in dubai or Malaysia which was FANtastic!  Here there wasn’t even a single plate in the room!  I expected better from Ibis, but this experience was far below standard. It was inconvenient and unpleasant, and I wouldn’t recommend staying here. .
Response from Property: Hi there,Thank you for your detailed feedback. We deeply regret that your experience did not meet the high standards you’ve come to expect from Ibis, and we sincerely apologise for the issues you encountered.We take your comments about the room amenities, fridge, room setup, and bathroom design seriously and will be addressing these matters with our team to ensure future improvements. We truly value your feedback and are committed to improving the guest experience. We hope you’ll consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with the service you expect from Ibis.Kind regards,ibis Styles Kingsgate Hotel

Very quick to check in. Room was more than adequate for our nights stay and super easy to find dinner nearby and to Walk along the river at night was just a short walk away. Having to pay extra for breakfast supplement (prebooked continental breakfast) was a bit surprising but only $6pp so ok. Checkout And getting deposit returned was easy.(Although not exactly sure what deposit was for since there was nothing in the room to take & had to pay cash for breakfast supplement.)
Response from Property: Hi there,Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear that you found the check-in process quick and the room suitable for your stay. It’s great that you enjoyed the nearby dining options and took advantage of the lovely riverside walk!Regarding the deposit, it is intended to cover any extras or incidentals during your stay, such as breakfast, parking, or room extensions. We appreciate your understanding, and we’re pleased to hear that the breakfast supplement was reasonable. Just so you know, breakfast charges can also be put on your room and settled at check-out for your convenience.If you have any further questions or need assistance during your next visit, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!Warm regards,ibis Styles Kingsgate Hotel
