Top Donald Macdonald Reserve Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Buckingham International

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay. Breakfast was lovely and the room was clean and well maintained. Mattress was firm which we like"

Punthill Oakleigh

10/10 Excellent

"The "likes" for 16 days of stay - a home away from home : a) The location is very close to Chadstone Shopping Mall, Subway, Hungry Jacks and Oakleigh etc b) The bed, pillows and bedding were superb and clean c) The sofa/bed was very comfortable and clean d) The bathroom was clean and has hot water on the fly - the complimentary shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and hand wash were superb! e) The concealed washing machine and dryer was a life saver, it was sound proof while in operation - Kudos! Not forgetting about the mobile drying rack! f) The utensils provided were clean and adequate for light cooking g) Carpark was ample and ease of access from 2 entry/exit zones h) I was lucky to be allocated in the non-road facing unit with a balcony - peaceful rest and beautiful views on bright sunny days! i) Last but not least, the complimentary Nespresso pods with the machine - Nice touch! The "improvements" : a) Shower head with flexible tubing instead of the short arm version (semi-flexible) b) A mobile heater fan (the affordable one from KMart @ AUD 15)"

Nightcap at Waltzing Matilda Hotel

8/10 Good

"Stayed here for two nights. Checkin: Easy, friendly staff, no issues Room: Quite spacious, was clean, room made up nicely. Nothing outstanding, but nothing terrible either. Bed: Fine, plenty of pillows which is always a win, it did roll a round a bit and a bit uneven, but certainly has worse. Bathroom: The towel rack in my room was bent, the shower pressure and heat good. The soap/shampoo/conditioner was in a terrible location which really narrowed the space where you were standing. The shower screen was almost non existent, so the bathroom got really wet easy. Towels were thin, not overly white but clean. TV: Nothing to write home with Parking: Cramped, but fine. Closeness to Location: I was down to use the Lawn Bowls club, so couldn’t ask for closer really. Food: Pub grub was fine, nothing to write home about but not terribleZ Overall: was basically what i expected, no frills clean tidy safe."

Caroline Serviced Apartments Brighton

8/10 Good

"It turned out to be an excellent spot to meet our friends & family. Great spot for shopping, loads of fusion & non fusion restaurants, heaps of cafe's to choose from. For those not driving, there is a station close to the apartment. Yes yes, the trains can be disturbing only if you are a light sleeper. But its managable. My room was facing Male street & it was quieter. They provided on-site parking, which was very convenient — no time wasted hunting for offsite spots. The neighbourhood is lovely, and it’s a 15–20 minute walk down to the beach."
