Mantra Wollongong

Apart from a good sized apartment, this property is a detriment to Accor hotels: a brand and loyalty killer. Cleanliness is awful and you get the dirty feel from the moment you arrive, park your car & walk the hallway. The expectation is already set and upon entering the room, that expectation becomes reality - paint peeling on window ledges, mould on window ledges, mouldy shower tiles, soap scum on shower tiles, cobwebs galore, heavily stained furniture, moisture damaged vanity laminate, stained carpets, stained walls. Hold every glass up to the light and you’ll see nothing clean and possibly the previous guests lipstick stains (like we did). I’d be embarrassed if I were the Hotel Manager and this was the product I was selling. Stay elsewhere in Wollongong, won’t be hard to find better.

2 nights staying with my husband and our puppy. Very old and below the average hotel.furniture was outdated and needed replacing but comfortable bed and clean bedding. Reception staff was also nice.

Liked: Large rooms, clean comfortable bed, pillows and linens. Good central location Disliked: Mould in bathroom grout. Overall worn condition; walls need repainting. Foil lining on oven tray placed over greasy unwashed surface.

The property was run down, the furniture was dated, the walls and doors were scuffed.

Extremely close to train station. Excellent value, any issues I had were quickly resolved. However the property doesn't seem to have disabled access from the street. This was not a problem for my elderly father as there were only 8 steps to climb. All in all 10/10.

We stayed in a 2 bed apartment for a birthday for 1 night which at $500 was a bit steep but we thought it would be a luxury stay. I have to say it was far from it. On first entry the room looked nice and well presented. However when you looked at the glass sliding doors and windows to the balcony it was obvious these had not been cleaned in a while. It looked like a kids party had been there with sticky hand prints all over. The glass fence on the balcony had many generations of spider webs and same said sticky hand prints. I know you might think this is picky but for $500 per night I expected much better. The dining table had metal angle brackets screwed to 2 of the legs and big screws through the top in a agricultural type repair. Then came breakfast the next morning there were no markings on the oven hob as it was that old so didnt know which knob did what or which way was high low,and when I opened the oven the tray inside still had previous guests bacon fat on the foil and the fridge had not been cleaned from previous guests. Bathroom also had mouldy spots. All in all those things took the gloss off to be honest.

Poor cleanliness, stained blanket, unit very tired and run down marks on walls.We were very disappointed with the accommodation. I would not recommend this property, which is a very poor reflection of the Mantra brand.

The price was good so im not overly disappointed with our stay as ....you get what you pay for. Reservation and checking was good. Staff were polite and courteous. Checked into a 2bed apartment. Wifi box was squeeling, so we unplugged it. Windows were fulthy and caked in black silicone...a very poor attempt at some maintenance. Ensuite bath was mouldy and had a very poor plaster job around the window. Cups and cutlery were dirty and still had coffee stains, couch cushions were stainee and smelly.... Like i said, you get what you pay for....would i stay at Mantra Wollongong again.....no.

Carpet cleanliness was an issue, cutlaries are too old , stained , needing replace for a healthy business. Cracked tiles , shower door does not close well ,
