No wonder I couldn't find it.
The name of the hotel is the Florence Hotel on Malvern Rd, very little signage and what signage there is small and tucked away in doorways. The hotels main name is the Mercer Hotel on Florence St, large signage. The Florence Hotel reception is co-located at the Mercer Hotel reception. I found this very confusing and just plain complicated.
