Novotel Melbourne South Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"CLEAN ROOM"

Brady Apartment Hotel Flinders Street

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean and quite spacious. Kitchenette was a welcome addition to my booking. The Front Desk staff were awesome at Check-In / Check-Out. Unfortunately the pool and spa area was very grubby and left a lot to be desired with hygiene and cleanliness. My granddaughter loves to swim but she didn’t want to use those amenities. Could be so much better with a deep clean and pool towels available."

Best Western Melbourne City

8/10 Good

"I have stayed in the Best Western Melbourne many times. It is great value for money for a solo traveller. It is right at the corner of spencer st and flinders st so there are many public transport options. The skybus terminus is very close. The shoebox room is perfectly fine. Although my room this trip had a window onto a very dark space so there was no natural light. Other rooms I have had either have a fliders st view or into a brighter atrium so I preferred these ones. The bathroom is tiny with a mini sink, toilet and shower. Although the shower opening is VERY small.. There is a small 32 inch TV with just the basic channels. There is a kettle with teabags instant cofee and a mini fridge with a UHT milk. The Cafe downstairs is fab. It has breakfast, lunch and dinner and some large TV's with the footy or sport on. Has a bar as well. I will return again."

Hotel Indigo Melbourne on Flinders by IHG

8/10 Good

"Staff at front reception on check in were super friendly. Room was very clean and hotel itself was great. Very disappointed in dishonest housekeeping staff. I accidentally left a silk sleep mask. I called the front desk a few hours later when we checked into the next hotel a few streets away and was told that housekeeping had reported that nothing had been left in the room. Very disappointing as I know where I left it"

Rendezvous Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful historical hotel, with comfortably modernised rooms. The architecture and level of preservation of original details in the lobby and hallways was wonderful. It was clean overall, but there was an unpleasant, funky smell coming out of the shower drain. I managed this by keeping the shower door closed, so it just went straight up into the vent. I understand this is what you get in such an old (100 year+) building. The bed was comfortable, pillows substantial, and the soundproofing pretty good on the rail yards/river side. It made for a nice night time view. I would absolutely stay there again."
