We stayed here as we had an early morning flight the next day, it was ok. The staff are lovely, very nice people, we stayed in a studio room and in was very small. Balcony struggled to fit more than 1 person standing. Beds are very uncomfortable and pillows hard. I hate giving average reviews but the number 1 thing... More

The room was large and well equipped, with a full size stove, lounge area and dining table etc. The whole set up was spacious. Not far from the airport and we got into Melbourne easily on the tram - about 30 minutes (possibly more than usual due to a diversion?). Our room had a fair bit of road noise, but... More

My partner and I chose this hotel because the hotels at the Melbourne airpot are quite pricy and we have a reasonably early flight. This hotel is only 15 min drive from the airport and is located in the middle of the restaurant and shopping district and it is not far from the city either. Most hotels in the city... More

I can't say much more than this place really made me feel like i was still at home. When i checked into Essendon Grand it was my first time in Victoria. Since then, thanks to the help from the lovely staff i have been able to tour around with the good advice i received from them. It is situated in... More

Punt Hill apartments is an ideal place to stay in Melbourne. The rooms are spacious and well kept and the location is perfect - close to the city, right next to a variety of places to eat, drink and even a supermarket next door. BUT in my experience, if you are under the age of 30, are not wearing a... More

Positives: Very spacious, with modern decor. Most fittings look fashionable and pleasing on the eye, with large kitchen area and plenty of provisions (fully equipped kitchen, laundry facilities etc.). Relatively quiet, with lots of various shops in near vicinity. Negatives: The place totally lacks love - all that nice decor and furniture is simply tossed in with no regard for... More

Do not stay here if you are young. I was behind two old couples when checking in and they were treated like kings. However I was treated like a 14 year old school kid when I checked in (I am a 23 year old accountant). It was a bad start to my experience, a big no no for customer service.... More

Stayed here with my son for 2 nights whilst visting family. Had initially booked into a studio room, but was talked into upgrading to a one bedroom apartment for $20 more. Best money ever spent. Not that there was anything wrong with the studios, but for $20, was defietely worth it. The apartment had plenty of room and was surprisingly... More

I have stayed here on several trip home to Melbourne. I know the area well and this is in the best location with shops of all kinds across the road. There is a great bar on the ground floor and shops within 2 minutes. The rooms are modern and spotless and great size. Everything you could wish for is there!... More
