The Hotel Cavalier is well located on transport routes and close to a large shopping complex at Knox. It was very well priced for my brief stay for a few meetings on the SE side of Melbourne. I arrived late due to a late flight and the reception was super helpful via messages and emails. They kindly placed my room key into a key-safe for me to self check in quite late. The room is spacious; the bed is comfortable, and the bathroom clean and user friendly. But for those looking for a bit of luxury, the facilities are ageing (eg curtains not hanging on the sliding rail properly, door chain was not functional at all, the door locks are old and felt “insecure”, and there was a bit of a musty smell in the room and corridors). Nevertheless, for a business traveller, I really appreciated the location, room size, comfy bed, etc because it is definitely not terrible but “very liveable”.
