Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Good"

1 Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived at 1 Hotel Melbourne in a state — and left as devoted fans. We had driven down from Sydney to collect our new Labrador puppy, Titus, and were on our way home when the car failed on the Hume Highway. What followed was five hours stranded roadside (the state of that road is a national disgrace in its own right), a long wait for a tow, and then another hour and a half back into Melbourne. By the time we pulled up at the hotel we were frazzled, filthy, and travelling with an eight-week-old puppy. Very few hotels will take a dog at all, let alone at short notice, let alone a puppy. 1 Hotel Melbourne didn't merely permit him — they embraced him. Bedding appeared. Toys appeared. Titus was greeted like an honoured guest by every single person we passed. They arranged charging for the car without our even having to ask twice, and when they understood what sort of day we'd had, a complimentary glass of wine arrived in the room. It was the kind of gesture that says someone was actually listening. What struck us most was that the excellence was not confined to one heroic individual — it ran right through the building. The valet, the concierge, the front desk, room service: every single team member was warm, unflappable and genuinely kind. For a new establishment, that consistency is remarkable. Most hotels take years to find that rhythm, if they ever do. Our daughter in the States had told us 1 Hotels was a wonderful group. She was right, and now we understand why."

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great hotel in a great location. It's in the CBD but just off the main streets enough to be quiet. I could easily walk to the Southern Cross rail station, the Vic Market, and tons of other fun places. It is also super close to lots of busses and trolleys so getting around was really easy. The breakfast buffet was fantastic with a huge array of options - pastries, cereal, eggs, sausage, pancakes, toast, beans, potatoes and more. So tasty. The property was clean and staff were friendly and accommodating. I felt safe and secure as a solo traveler. The only (minor) downside was that there was no view. It's a tall building surrounded by other tall buildings, but I'd rather go out and enjoy the city than see it through a window anyway. All in all, I would definitely stay there again and would enthusiastically recommend it to friends and family."
