Top Royal Botanic Gardens Cranbourne Hotel Reviews

Pullman East Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Good location"

Hannah St Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were the loviest, place was better than described - highly recommend."

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Southbank by IHG

8/10 Good

"Amazing staff, close to everything"

Great Southern Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"We’re been here a couple of times. Price and location are key. The rest is what you’d expect for the price you pay 😉"

WRAP on Southbank

8/10 Good

"Excellent location for the National Art Gallery, only a 10 minute walk. Also very handy to tram into city, and local restaurants, cafes and supermarkets were just around the corner. A five minute walk to a wonderful French patisserie/cafe. The suite was very spacious, comfortable and the full kitchen and especially the separate bedroom was greatly appreciated. Good double glazing meant the inside was really quiet, and heard nothing from outside the room. However, there were a few issues with housekeeping, (no face washers supplied or hairdryer) no tea & coffee renewed, but these were quickly resolved by reception staff. The lack of a smart TV and streaming services such as Netflix was an unexpected disappointment these days, when even basic motels will offer this. Overall, excellent value for money and in a top spot, would come again."
