Air Conditioning and Heating
Every apartment has its own ducted heating and air conditioning to allow you to regulate the property temperature for your own comfort.
Recommended temperatures: Heating 20c / Cooling 22c.
Please turn off heating and cooling when not in the apartment to reduce power usage. To change settings please use the control mechanism located on the wall in the living area.
Building Entry
Entry into City Tower residential property is by security card. You will need to swipe your card every time you enter the building (including accessing the building from the car park).
Visitors to your apartment
The visitor intercom is located at the front entrance. You can allow access using the security phone in your apartment. Permitting entry to the building will automatically provide your visitor with access to the lifts.
Building Management
City Tower is a residential apartment complex governed by a Body Corporate Committee. Please take a few minutes to review the Body Corporate Rules, which are located in one of your kitchen cupboards. If you are unable to locate this document, you may request one from the Building Manager. The Building Manager is on-site from 8:30 – 5:00 pm weekdays, and may be contacted on 0421 610 213.
Please note any maintenance issues in your apartment are to be communicated to Guest Services, not to the Building Manager, as he/she will be unable to help. Please see the maintenance section for further details.
Car Parking
If you have requested a car park, you will have been provided with a car park access remote upon check-in. The car park is accessed via City Road. You will need to use your security card to gain access to the building from the car park.
Please note there is no visitor parking on site, however, other public car parks are available locally.
Check Out Time
Check out time for all apartments in the Corporate Keys Group is 10:00 am.
Cook Top, Range Hood and Oven
Every cook top is fitted with a range hood. Please ensure this is used when cooking. Smoke alarms activated by guests due to a failure to use the range hood incur costs for attendance of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade; these costs are payable by the guest.
Certain models of oven require the clock to be set correctly. If your oven will not heat, please check the clock is set before contacting Guest Services. If the oven will not turn off, ensure the door is closed properly and that no cooking function is selected. If the oven shuts down, it may have overheated. It will reset itself, but you will need to reset the clock (depending on the model, the oven may not function again until the clock is reset). Some cook top models have a safety switch installed on the splash back wall directly behind the cook top. These safety switches resemble a light switch and must be in the “on” position for the cook top hobs to operate.
If you require the full manual please contact Guest Services. Alternatively, most appliance manuals can be downloaded from the internet.
Dishwasher
A starter pack of dish washing tablets/powder is located in the cupboard under the sink in the kitchen. Additional tablets or powder can be purchased from your local supermarket. Please use only powder or tablets specifically marked for dishwasher use in the dishwasher. Liquids will damage the machine and guests will be liable for any resulting service charges.
If you require the full manual, please contact Guest Services. Alternatively, most appliance manuals can be downloaded from the internet.
Emergency Evacuation Procedures
Refer to the “Emergency Evacuation Plan”, located in the lobby. In case of evacuation, DO NOT use the lifts. Please contact the Building Manager if you have any questions regarding evacuation procedures.
Housekeeping
The linen in your apartment has been laundered prior to your arrival. If you have requested housekeeping, a Guest Services Agent will contact you by email to confirm the schedule for this service. If no housekeeping service has been requested, subsequent laundering of linen is your responsibility for the duration of your stay. Please ensure that linen is cared for and that white towels and sheets are not washed with coloured items.
Please note – do not hang any wet laundry across furniture. Doing so will damage the furniture, for which guests are liable.
Should you not have a housekeeping service and later wish to request one, please contact Guest Services.
Ironing Facilities
An iron and ironing board are located in the laundry area/wardrobe of your apartment.

All apartments are fitted with smoke detectors. Smoking in the apartment will trigger an automatic call to emergency services. Emergency services may charge for their service if alarms are triggered by the occupant or their visitors smoking inside. Any such charges will be payable by the guest.
