Hotel 4-Star di Victoria, Australia

I recently stayed at this hotel and was pleasantly surprised by how much more upscale it felt compared to other hotels in the Franklin Street at the same price point. The facilities, including the indoor pool and gym, were great additions and made the stay feel more luxurious. The reception area was well-maintained and the staff was professional, giving a very positive first impression. Our room, which was for three people, was just the right size for us. It comfortably fit two large suitcases and a smaller one without feeling cramped. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a well-equipped, comfortable stay with a touch of class.

Location is very good. Just 5 minutes walk from Melbourne Southern Cross Train Station. Where it's connected with the airport by Skybus in 30 minutes, connected with Sydney by train in 10 hours. Free tram line is nearby. Recommended.

During my recent business trip to Mercure, I was impressed by the outstanding service and comfortable accommodations. The staff were friendly and efficient, and my room was spacious and well-equipped, and the restaurant provided excellent dining options. A fantastic choice for any business traveler!

Arriving Melbourne late at night and have a morning flight the next day. Chose Parkroyal given its price and super convenient location: just walk pass the footbridge at 2/F of the terminals and take the hotel lift at the carpark to reach the reception floor. Room is big and clean, water is hot enoguh and with a bath tub, sadly it was too late I haven’t used it.  The service was good too that they have totally no problem at all for me to store the big luggage for 5 days as I will be flying to Tasmania for few days trip with a small luggage.  Just don’t like about the pillow which are too soft. But the rest, perfect!!

The hotel location is good, near the airport and easy to find. The checkin and checkout process is easy, pretty clean room but I found some white hairs in my bed and floor. Good food but small portions for the price I paid. Overall was okay and good experience for a short stay during transit.

We stayed here for four nights. 1. The staff is courteous. 2. Perhaps it's due to the Oaks brand, but the hotel has a strong scent of aromatherapy throughout. 3. The room is spacious, but overall it shows some wear and feels a bit old. 4. The location is convenient, right next to Flagstaff Station. There’s a convenience store (very expensive) and Chemist Warehouse nearby. 5. If you want to use the parking facility, you must make a reservation in advance. 6. Laundry costs AUD4, drying costs AUD4, and laundry powder costs AUD2. The washing takes about 30 minutes, and drying takes about 40 minutes. 7. Aside from toothpaste and a toothbrush, all other amenities are provided including body lotion. If you need more, you can ask the front desk. However, there is no daily room cleaning service, so you need to take out the trash yourself if necessary. 8. Interestingly, the room we booked was already with a garden view, but they said they upgraded me to garden view (with the same room type). They must have made a mistake of upgrade 😆 9. TV is without youtube nor Netflix.

Temporary accommodation is an option because it is close to the city center and not expensive. However, they only informed us when we arrived that there was no elevator. This is not very friendly to many backpackers. If they have a lot of luggage, they may not be willing to climb the stairs without prior notice and need to find new accommodation.

We were warmly welcomed and assist with the check in by jays. She is friendly and polite making the check in an ease. The room was clean and spacious, the bed were very comfortable. Air con was working well. There’s a kitchen component which was handy as I like fruits. Our room is on the 9 floor and facing very closely to the next building which I felt a little watched. The hotel has a gym and a semi heated indoor pool and sauna which is lovely, you can go anytime without checking the weather. Trams just right below and eateries around, very convenient. On our last day, it was raining and Desmond went beyond and above to shelter us with umbrella to our cab. I had a good deal with the platform I booked with and I think it was value for money for us and we enjoyed ourselves at the hotel. Highly recommend :)

The hotel location was perfect. Close to all the city center attractions and just right next to Victoria market. The hotel facilities are acceptable and clean. Just inside the room and hallways are a bit too dark for me at night.

Very small room for what it was worth, but decent stay otherwise with great communication from hotel staff prior to stay. Arriving in Melbourne on a red-eyed flight meant that we needed a room to rest prior to standard check-in times. Both email and phone communication with staff prior to my stay was fantastic, and very accommodating. The room itself could've been better with more space to move around. I also wasn't too big of a fan of the small bathroom sink and half-glass shower (which made water escape really easily onto the bathmat and tiles). I would've liked the city view room lookout, but construction next to the hotel and an earlier check-in time meant this request couldn't be accommodated, which was fine by all means. I was just thankful the hotel could give me a quiet room on the third floor, and away from the noise of the construction. Otherwise, a decent stay and very centrally located to Melbourne Central and eateries.

We booked this new hotel out of curiosity and trust of large brand, but quite disappointed The hotel located at an area outside t4, next to the big parking building/bus terminal, but there are no/minimum signage/directions leading to the hotel, while only one arrow at the bus terminal pointing at the big building with the large novotel logo, making everyone thinks that we can access the hotel through the well lighted bus terminal with ease, but sadly there is no crossing facilities between the terminal and hotel, you will need to lift your luggages, jaywalking through two car lane and climbing up the lane islands if you dont want to walk back 200m for the unnoticeable correct route; in fact the only route leading to the hotel from the airport is the side walk OPPOSITE to the big arrow with poor lightings and no signage at all. As a tourist with heavy luggage, thanks for offering the chance to weight lifting. When we arrived and reflect the problem, concierge said they also received similar complains. So nothing has been done to correct the nonsense and good luck to all the up coming visitors. The room is decent to be honest and with a clear view facing the car park building we mentioned earlier, no much to see yet no problem for us too. Bed is soft and comfortable allowing us to have some good rest. However, theres an empty black bottle in the rubbish bin i believed to be the leftover from the last guest, hope the housekeeper can have a closer look in the future. Some facilities have great designs that i would like to greet the designer/procurement and admire their mastermind for installing those equipment and challenge the wisdom of humankind. For instance: the anti-intuitive shower switch for change to top shower or handheld shower head, it is semi cylinder disguised as part of wall mount of the top shower, which is about 1.9m - 2m from the ground, for those who cant find the switch and not tall enough will have to stick with what was preset. Second, the hot water dispenser at the breakfast bar, you can simply press the two buttons on top and nothing would happen, turns out there is an extra sensor you need to block with your thumb and use another finger to press the buttons on top, this can encourage guests to give up on the hot water if no one is around to ask. The breakfast is the most disappointing part, frankly all quality are high standard but the choices are few and basic, simply bacons/ eggs/ veges/ salad/ hams (well the mushrooms are very impressive though), there is also a honey hive (with a rectangular frame) but mostly empty at the middle (at the time of 7am) where the side are hard to spoon out, ppl try very hard but the loose stands make it even harder to spoon out, the frame eventually collapse and guest gave up to take the hive. No staff notice/try to fix the collapsed honey hive/ change to a new one during my whole breakfast ( around half an hour) and remain the same when we left. The pancakes supposed to be eat with the honey are dry and inedible imo too. The price for the hotel is not cheap comparing to the nearing but the standard does not meet up with the price, facilities are new and thats the only advantage on the table. PS: the hotel offer free shuttle to the terminals too, try to mention and book for your shuttle as there are only 3-4 seats if everyone have large luggages, otherwise the concierge will be surprised you did not ask for this hidden service with no mentioning during check in and no timetable ever provided when you check with them in the morning.

I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Melbourne while en route to Albury. The stay was average overall—comfortable enough for a short visit, but nothing particularly stood out. The location was convenient for my travel plans, and the room provided the essentials for a night’s rest. While it served its purpose as a stopover, there’s room for improvement in terms of ambiance and amenities to make the experience more memorable. It’s a decent option for a quick stay if you’re just passing through.

Great hotel, within a quiet but safe part of Melbourne. The tram stations are within the free tram zone which makes it convenient to travel around. The hotel itself is great. It was clean, and the bed was comfortable and the room was very very modern. The hotel is a highly recommended place. Great value for money!

The apartment was super clean, lots of light and a view of the port! The staff were ever so helpful and friendly. Close to the free tram and a chiller, nicer part of town!

Decent room size for 4 people and clean. Good view out the windows. The housekeeping didn't change our dirty sheets though and we had to go to the gym to get new clean towels because they did not have any for us one night. The water pressure was also very low on the 1st night, but they did fix it for us the next morning.

The hotel is beyond my expectation. Location is superb, just within few minute walk to Southern Cross Station, which is super comfy for transit. The staff was very nice and friendly. I checked in quite late at night and the receptionist kindly helped me carry my heavy luggages upstairs. Room is spacious and well-furnished. There are also a microwave & a small fridge with plates and forks available in the room. Bathroom is also well-equipped and tidy. I'm very satisfied with Travelodge and will definitely come back once travelling in Melbourne.

Traveling as a group of 2 mothers and 2 daughters (late teens), the 2 BR Executive suite was perfect. The apartment was clean, bright, spacious and just so comfortable. We will definitely use again. The staff were attentive and friendly, and even called me a few days before our stay to ask about bedding configurations, whether we needed a car park, and a few other details.

It is very convenient at the pier. It can cook rice, there are pots and stoves, and a big bed is relatively small. It is recommended to have a two-bed house with a family of three. Breakfast is simple, filling your stomach is no problem.

The hotel is a bit far from the Melbourne CBD and there are trams nearby. About 10-15 minutes walk to Costco and Woolworths. The environment and facilities in the hotel are very good, you can cook by yourself, if you come again, it is highly recommended

The one-bedroom apartment I originally booked was upgraded to a three-bedroom apartment (actually a two-bedroom and one-studio) without any notice. The original one-bedroom was very cheap. The kitchen is a rare gas stove in an Australian hotel apartment, which is convenient for cooking. The swimming pool is small, but there is a 25 meter walkway, and there is a spa, sauna, and the night view of the Yarra River is also beautiful, which is really good value. The traffic is normal. It is close to the Southern Cross Station, but it is far from Federation Square, which means that it is not close to Chinatown and the main shopping area. It is close to the office area, which is suitable for business trips. The only pity is that its front office is beside a turntable, and there is no place to park for free around it. The only parking spaces that can be seen are also for the police. In this way, after you drive out of the garage, returning the keys is a very crazy thing. I don't know if anyone else solved it. I parked the car on the turntable, rushed in, threw the key and ran. . . . . . Too embarrassing. Check-in also has this problem, because its garage requires a key to go in. It can't be like other hotels. Stop in and then go out to check in. But if you do n’t check in, you do n’t have the key. . . .

The location is right on the edge of the city center, lively and quiet, the environment is good. However, the front desk is not in the same place as the apartment and needs to be found, so it is best to know some English. In addition, the house is separated by a partition, the sound insulation effect is not very good, the party is opened next door, and it is very loud.

Location is very good because it is just next to a stop on the free tram system. There are shops and supermarkets nearby and some restaurants. You can also easily walk to the CBD, river and Southern Cross Station. It is relatively large and has plenty of amenities. The only negative was that the soft chairs are covered in highly visible greasy food and drinks stains. They should either use a faux leather or something or throws that can be washed. Also there seemed to be a huge excess of bedding which got tangled and uncomfortable. A simple duvet, sheet and two pillows would be better in my opinion. But otherwise, all good!
