The Hotel is relatively small, but upper class. The service was perfect, any wish and/or problem was solved at short notice by the friendly staff. Although the rooms were quite small the hotel is worth the stay!!

This hotel is very pretty from the outside but the room we were given (we were told we were upgraded upon check in to a 'deluxe') wasn't great. It was clean and had all the basics but the furnishings are rather outdated and sparse. Goodness knows what a 'standard' room would have been like. We had dinner once in the... More

Thanks to the recommendations on trip advisor we booked at Charsfield hotel. We did not regret it! We are a French/Italian family of 5 persons (a couple + 2 children + 1 grandpa). We very much enjoyed our stay at the Charsfield Hotel, where we stayed 6 nights in total, last February and March. First of all, because the hotel... More

This was my first trip away with my young daughter and we were accompanying my husband on a business trip. Looking back, perhaps I didn't research it well enough - however even so, I think the staff could have been a bit more helpful to me. I guess I have gotten used to the treatment I usually receive when I... More

I picked this hotel after reading other reviews on this website. I was not disappointed. I enjoyed the Hotel Charsfield. The room was clean, the bathroom was clean and functional, the television worked, and the location was great being adjacent to a tram line. The free internet was a real bonus in a country (Australia) where charging for the internet... More

This is a gem of a hotel. The building is very pretty and well appointed, but it is not just for appearances. The rooms are very spacious, unusually large. Airconditioning is excellent. Location is quite good. If you don't have a car, a short ride on the tram will deliver you to the city in 10 minutes or to St... More

Stayed there at the last minute on NYE. Loved the beautiful old charm of the building, almost like an oversized B&B feel to it. Would highly recommend.

We stayed there two nights on our Australia tour and this hotel was one of the best we stayed at. Our room (301) was big and very nice and the whole hotel has much charme. The staff is very helpful. The hotel also offers free internet access. There are a couple of cafés and restaurants close by. By tram (that... More

My wife and I stayed at The Charsfield for 4 nights whilst visiting Melbourne. The Hotel has Charm and Charisma in abundance. Situated directly on the St Kilda Road, which gives you perfect access to all the tourist sights of Melbourne via the local tram stop which is only 2 minutes from the Hotel. However whilst the main attraction is... More

Charming little 'boutique' hotel. Loved the billiards room and the old-style reading room. The accomodation was neat and tidy and spacious enough for the price range. A good location for a tourist in Melbourne - although there isn't much happening within walking distance (aside from the Belgian Beer bar) it's a short tram ride from the city, St Kilda and... More
