Top La Trobe University Hotel Reviews

Adina Apartment Hotel Melbourne Pentridge

10/10 Excellent

"Easy check and out. Nice, clean and modern stay. The only the part that was strange was finding out its history being a previous prison. Didn’t realise until we got there. Quite strange. No issue with the history itself just strange that you’d turn it into accomodation/ dining experience while promoting its history. Feels a little disrespectful."

Quest Ivanhoe

8/10 Good

"The reception staff were very friendly. There was no soap holder in the bathroom so had to leave wet soap to skid around the bench top. The Ivanhoe Quest was situated well for the train which made it easy to get in and out of the city. I thought it was very expensive, but then I did not spend that much time in the room itself. I paid for the convenience of location for the events I went to."

Greensborough Motel

8/10 Good

"Pool was filthy they said opens November but looked like never maintained. Parking very tight. Seemed to be lo g term residents with some engaging in business activities such as manufacturing protest badges bit all friendly and quiet after 10pm. Variety of food outlets around a 5min drive. Rooms very clean well equipped and tidy."

St Georges Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"It was nice big rooms and friendly staff."

Quest Bundoora

10/10 Excellent

"They go the extra mile to assist with any requirements you may have, the room was beautiful upon arriving!"

Bell Motel

8/10 Good

"Beds were nice and comfortable with lovely clean sheets as one would expect. Very happy with the staff and the location. Excellent parking. The motel is getting dated and the carpet in our room looked in need of a good clean also the vent in the bathroom was very dirty and looked like it had not been cleaned for quite some time. Being on the wall it would be so easy to clean - not sure why someone just hasn't taken 5 minutes to clean it - it just makes you wonder if the rest of the room is just given a quick clean."

Quest Epping

10/10 Excellent

"No TV instructions. That was annoying. But friendly staff, cleanliness, ok size, great having a kitchenette but didn't need it."

Nightcap at Excelsior Hotel

8/10 Good

"Don’t judge a book by its cover . Was surprised at how great it was . And dinner at the restaurant was amazing ."

Punthill Ivanhoe

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location next to Warringal Hospital. Quiet and convenient room."
