Top Old Melbourne Gaol Hotel Reviews

QT Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Room was lovely and clean, very spacious. Great location, easy walk to everything Melbourne has to offer!"

Novotel Melbourne on Collins

6/10 Okay

"Hotel description states “Luxury hotel” pretty average to me, rooms have no power points next to bedsides. Be sure to request a room with a view at booking time, otherwise you’ll have a room view with air-con system vents. Ensure you bring your own toothbrush, razor and basics no longer provided. Two sets of lifts; inconvenient for seniors"

Meriton Suites Melbourne

8/10 Good

"I had a great stay at Meriton Suites Melbourne, the staff interactions were great, the room was spacious and exactly as promoted, and I had a comfortable stay. Would certainly consider staying here again. One small note - due to location of my room I did have quite a bit of noise from systems - buzzing/humming, not other guests or street noise. I believe my room was close to a mechanical room, but I am a bit sensitive to humming noises so it may not have been noticeable to others. "
