It never happened. Despite OpenTable following up about our reservation, the reservation didn’t exist in the system on the restaurants end. We were offered no rescheduling, apologies or really any attempt to make it up to us in any way. This experience was a major reason we booked this hotel and it was something we had to miss out on in our time in Melbourne.

For myself and my friend, overall it was hugely disappointing experience. I was visiting from interstate, so we decided to go here. Personally it was too sweet. We were the only two people having high tea at this time. The staff understandably where more focused on other events upstairs being a wedding and hen's afternoon, so there was limited interaction with the staff, except to get our coffee orders

Scones and sandwiches were fine. Pastries were tasteless. Couldn't tell one flavour from the other. Didn't seem fresh. Service was terrific, our Attendant was friendly and efficient.

Our group really enjoyed the High Tea, thank you, the room was charming and the waiter ver polite and attentive. The glass of sparkling wine was very nice and the food was exquisite. I recommend Rendezvous for an excellent High Tea at a very competitive price, compared to other hotels.

The food wasn’t what was on their website. They all tasted the same. The parking wasn’t cheaper as advertised.
