“Top Hotel”
Great hotel in a great location easy access to the city, casino,southbank shops would definatly go back next time I stay in Melbourne Melba,s restaurants food was great, plenty of variety, and just pleasing to sit and enjoy the food
“Fantastic Fantastic Fantastic”
Didn't get a room with a view but having paid so little booking the advance special rate we didn't really expect to. However, what we did get was incredible value for money! A gorgeous hotel in the heart of Melbourne, clean luxurious rooms with the traditional turndown service, amazing afternoon tea, friendly staff throughout and a fantastic spa with an infinity hot tub that overlooks the Melbourne Skyline. There was a real sense of relaxation at this hotel despite it being right in the centre of South Bank. All staff were great but particularly the Concerige - asked for a recommendation for a roof top coktail bar and was given details on the spot but also had a follow up note under the door of our room. The porters and bell staff did their jobs efficiently and with a friendly manner. Felt completely at home!
“Traveller”
The hotel is excellent interms of location. The rooms are clean and luxurious.
“The Langham has it all!”
Most certainly the best location for visiting Melbourne. The roof top swimming pool and jacuzzi have fantastic views over the Yarra river and Melbourne and what better way to see it than from a hot bubbly jacuzzi! Quick walk over the bridge to Flinders Street with station and tram network. Our room though no view had a great mattress for a good night sleep, clean and comfortable room. The work desk was well appointed. The entrance lobby spectacular with waterfall and the food absolutely fantastic. Recommend the buffet (all you can eat)and if you like sea food as we do then there is crab, mussels,oysters,king prawns to help yourself to. As far as I am concerned it is the only place to stay and I would certainly return again.
“Hotel made the trip”
This was one of the nicest hotels I have stayed in. The staff were amazing and so helpful. The location was brilliant. If you find fault with this hotel then nothing would please you ! I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Definately be coming back
“Melbourne's Best Hotel”
Excellent Hotel, Great Location, Extremely helpful Staff. This hotel would provide the best breakfast of any hotel in Australia (in my view).Allover, a great place to stay. If you like chinese food it is very close to a great restaurant The Red Emperor.
“Cant wait to go back fantastic”
Had a delightful time at the service was fantastic, close to every thing. And found cheap weekend parking close by.
“Luxurious Langham”
Have just returned home after spending 4 wonderful nights in luxury. Staff were very friendly and helpful, room was beautifully appointed with the most comfortable bed possible. Thoroughly enjoyed the Melba experience at night with the beautiful view across the river. Fantastic location, quiet and comfortable with a luxurious ambience. Would certainly like to come again.
“Great hotel”
My family and I loved our stay at the Langham, Melbourne. We were only there for one night, unfortunately, but should we ever return to Melbourne we will certainly want to return to the Langham.
“good, but room to improve”
Health club equipment could be upgraded
