What guests think
At Mantra on Queen, guests frequently praise the friendly front-desk team, central location near the CBD and shops, and comfortable beds, while recurring complaints focus on the extremely tight, limited parking and rooms that feel dated or run down.
Some guests reported clunky after-hours check-in, repeated booking calls, or slow follow-up. Cleanliness feedback is mixed, with several noting tidy rooms, but others mentioning pests, odors, or maintenance oversights during longer stays. On-site dining was limited or closed at times. Best for short, city-centered stays where location matters more than on-site extras.

The room was nice, warm and cozy, also slept like a baby the bed is comfortable. Did come across a couple of cockaroaches but besides that the room was lovely. The receptionist + staffs are absolutely lovely and welcoming. The carpark is very tight to get through and out more suitable for smaller cars than normal or medium sized cars, also trying to find a spot for guest was hard since majority of parks are reserved or private parking but the good note is they directed us to carpark spots if there isn't any left on site. Overall we enjoyed our stay, close by to clubs etc and right next to the shops. The veiw in our room from the window was absolutely beautiful. Do recommend for anyone wanting to do a solo or going with a partner stay for a holiday or to just get away. Pricing of the place is worth it too and absolutely cheap especially for one night.

The property on level 22 the food smell in our room is so strong all day and night, feels that the room in a kitchen with non stop cooking, also parking in building is very bad, very very narrow and you need to be really careful otherwise you will scratch your car.

Check in staff were fabulous so energetic and fast and helpful. Room was as requested and described. Hot tub/spa pool was cold but nice in the heat no bubbles though. Car park was a bit rough to navigate with structural poles to dodge. No staff at check out so just did key drop, after waiting 15 mins with a few other rooms of people waiting to do the same.

I called in advance for an early check in, was unavailable on the day. We ended up checking in at 10-11pm after an event and it was very difficult as there was no reception and everything was via phone. Unfortunately there were a few of us who had the same issue and it was very clunky and we were waiting for accesses and a couple of room keys were mixed up amongst the other guests. No restaurant available as it was shut on the day. Car park is a nightmare. I don’t recommend driving in and trying to navigate the car park if you have anything bigger than a hatch.

Parking is their biggest issue for guests. Seems as thought they are all taken up by Permanent residents.??? Shouldn't there be a space for at least each unit. Do a lot of the permanents have more than one car Also car spaces were very tight. We did not park in the car park there but listening to a lot of our friends who also stayed there, as we had a venue to go to down at Grove, they were quite disgusted, It is as if car park spaces would only take a 3 cylinder car or less.

Great location and clean rooms. Staff member at check in was friendly. Recommend this location and facilities. Only bad thing is car parking. The carpark is extremely tight to get around - if you have a large car you will need to park elsewhere

Although it's called Mantra on Queen, the main entrance is not on Queen Street but around the back. I would not have felt comfortable returning to the hotel after dark due to the area and poorly lit access. On the good side, it was beautifully clean, and the bed was supremely comfortable. I also really appreciated the quality toiletries in sustainable (refillable) bottles.

For $120 per night, this would be a good hotel, though I spent good money ($322) based on its write up and pictures only be met with a run down building, well overdue for refurbishment. It was cold, dirty and it stinks. The beds are uncomfortable and the shower is great if you are three feet tall. I don't recommend, and I will never visit again.

Small pokey room overlooking rusty iron roof, bathroom door awkward to close when you went in due to space/configuration, hot water jug had something crusted into bottom of it so couldn't use, had to get the hot iron replaced (as bottom was filthy with brown muck from lack of cleaning) before I could iron my clothes - I'm sure other rooms may have been better & more spacious or nicer but mine wasn't a great experience.

Paid for one of the 'nicer' rooms. The floor smelt like stale vomit, the wifi didn't work, the clothes dryer didn't work and the parking was full. I was then redirected to another carpark which cost $138 for 2 days. And anytime any of these issues were brought to the counter staffs attention. Nothing happened. My room and parking for 2 adults cost around $850 for 2 nights. Biggest rip off I've ever experienced with a hotel. After complaining to the staff, I was told they'll be in contact to rectify it but still no phone call. Do yourself a favour and choose somewhere else, the Mantra on Queen is 3 star at best

Our room was ok, great view but I think I paid extra for that. The rooms bathroom was tiny and had ants in it. We only had 2 towels when we booked for 3 guests. It’s on a noisy street with a pub below and the windows don’t reduce the noise. No parking so had to park down the road and walk back. No restaurants on site or breakfast. The pool area and exterior of building is very run down. Staff were ok, not super friendly. Would not come back again.

The reception staff were lovely, we asked for a product to which they'd bring to the room but it wasnt what was asked, assuming they were out and just left whatever to make it up. The room wasnt what the pictures advertised and was very old and dated looking. The curtains had holes in them and the air conditioning did not work in the old duct vents even turned on to its lowest setting of 18°. The room definitely wasnt noise cancelling as we heard sirens no stop from the traffic outside and the room next door banging walls and slaming doors. The carpark is a tight squeeze if you have a large car and in general be cautious.The only solid point is the bed was very comfortable.

Staff at the Mantra was amazing. Called to confirm but wasn’t pushy. When I arrived after a long day of travelling, they were very welcoming. The room was comfortable and large. By myself but certainly could have had another person in there comfortably. The location was great too. Went for a nice walk in the morning and there were some nice cafes and shops around.

I was looking for a clean, comfortable hotel for the night in a convenience location for business purposes at a reasonable price. The hotel met all of this, however the service was 6 star. Reception staff were incredible when I advised I was arriving early and assisted me with parking so I could make a meeting. Then on check-out I requested an extension due to tele-meetings I had scheduled and again were terrific in providing me with an extension. Room was clean, comfortable and everything I needed

I booked for five people as in five adults got given a room with one double bed and one king bed had to ring and request a rollout bed because nothing else was available there was no toilet paper in the bathrooms, we had no towels. The place was dated and cramped considering what we paid. To be for the staff member that was trying to correct all the wrongs was doing really well and very helpful. The rest of the staff look like they didn’t even want to be there.

I called in advance for an early check in, was unavailable on the day. We ended up checking in at 10-11pm after an event and it was very difficult as there was no reception and everything was via phone. Unfortunately there were a few of us who had the same issue and it was very clunky and we were waiting for accesses and a couple of room keys were mixed up amongst the other guests. No restaurant available as it was shut on the day. Car park is a nightmare. I don’t recommend driving in and trying to navigate the car park if you have anything bigger than a hatch.

The room was nice, warm and cozy, also slept like a baby the bed is comfortable. Did come across a couple of cockaroaches but besides that the room was lovely. The receptionist + staffs are absolutely lovely and welcoming. The carpark is very tight to get through and out more suitable for smaller cars than normal or medium sized cars, also trying to find a spot for guest was hard since majority of parks are reserved or private parking but the good note is they directed us to carpark spots if there isn't any left on site. Overall we enjoyed our stay, close by to clubs etc and right next to the shops. The veiw in our room from the window was absolutely beautiful. Do recommend for anyone wanting to do a solo or going with a partner stay for a holiday or to just get away. Pricing of the place is worth it too and absolutely cheap especially for one night.

Although it's called Mantra on Queen, the main entrance is not on Queen Street but around the back. I would not have felt comfortable returning to the hotel after dark due to the area and poorly lit access. On the good side, it was beautifully clean, and the bed was supremely comfortable. I also really appreciated the quality toiletries in sustainable (refillable) bottles.

The reception staff were lovely, we asked for a product to which they'd bring to the room but it wasnt what was asked, assuming they were out and just left whatever to make it up. The room wasnt what the pictures advertised and was very old and dated looking. The curtains had holes in them and the air conditioning did not work in the old duct vents even turned on to its lowest setting of 18°. The room definitely wasnt noise cancelling as we heard sirens no stop from the traffic outside and the room next door banging walls and slaming doors. The carpark is a tight squeeze if you have a large car and in general be cautious.The only solid point is the bed was very comfortable.

Staff at the Mantra was amazing. Called to confirm but wasn’t pushy. When I arrived after a long day of travelling, they were very welcoming. The room was comfortable and large. By myself but certainly could have had another person in there comfortably. The location was great too. Went for a nice walk in the morning and there were some nice cafes and shops around.

Our room was ok, great view but I think I paid extra for that. The rooms bathroom was tiny and had ants in it. We only had 2 towels when we booked for 3 guests. It’s on a noisy street with a pub below and the windows don’t reduce the noise. No parking so had to park down the road and walk back. No restaurants on site or breakfast. The pool area and exterior of building is very run down. Staff were ok, not super friendly. Would not come back again.

Great location and clean rooms. Staff member at check in was friendly. Recommend this location and facilities. Only bad thing is car parking. The carpark is extremely tight to get around - if you have a large car you will need to park elsewhere

Clean room. Just wasn't aware of the $200 security deposit that they ask for when you get there and when you leave they only deposit it within 3 days. When travelling can be inconvenient if not made aware. Also left my medication in the hotel and they said they would post it to me but I would have to pay the postage which just altogether was bad service. Also the cafe entry point we're strange we had to order outside like walk around the whole thing even though we were a guest. Bit confusing.

The restaurant was under renovation & price of room was expensive for the outdated apartments and limited facilities. It really needs a revamp! I won't be staying again!
