We had a great stay. Howey was well located and so close to everything. Room was big enough for us 3 and we will definitely be back.
Only downsides was there was no sink/microwave in the ‘kitchen’ area and our room was covered in finger/toe nails that obviously hadn’t been vacuumed up properly.

Great hotel. All the staff we met at the property were very friendly. The room was lovely. The only thing I found was the tv switching channels or just not connecting. But we weren’t there to watch tv. Great location, central to everything we needed.

Perfect CBD Stay
First time staying at The Howey. Selected this hotel as other go-to hotels were pricey by comparison. Very impressed. 8th floor room was very quiet, a surprise given the central CBD location (and close to trams on Swanston St). Lovely modern decor, spotless. Very comfy bed. Amazing shower! Staff very friendly at check-in, instantly felt welcome. Will recommend, and stay again.

Great room, staff and location.
Another wonderful stay. Great room, exceptionally clean and very cosy. Really well designed rooms (power points where you need them & etc) natural light and very comfortable bed. All the staff were friendly and extremely helpful. I love the gym too, small but enough for a decent workout. The location is brilliant. Excellent value. Many thanks team Howey!

I had prepaid the stay and at check in time, front desk staff tried to charge me again. They hadn’t checked and I had to insist and show them my bank account.
Empty shower gel.
Room was extremely dark, including the bathroom. Very difficult to do my makeup.

Good hotel, parking not great
Good quality hotel. Parking is a good 10-15 min walk. If you have a reasonable amountvof luggage you may struggle to get a car anywhere near the hotel. I think the hotel should state no parking, car park 10-15 min away

We liked our clean, pleasant room, but having construction work right outside our window which didn’t stop till 10:00pm the night of our stay, then starting at 6:00am the following morning wasn’t ideal. Would have been nice to not be so close to construction side or at least been warned
