8/10 Good

"I liked the property, the room, bed, curtains, all good, lights rather bright in the bathroom,. Like to stay another night, was quiet, slept well.. Still not sure what the Hotel is called..?"

Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Atlantis was close to everything and easy to access. The room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was selective but fabulous. Staff were amazingly helpful and happy. Would stay again"

Great Southern Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"A short walk from Southern Cross station so is very convenient when travelling by train or plane.Staff were pleasent. Room was quiet and had everything needed for short stay. Restaurant available for dinner and breakfast..Only critisism was room was located on level 1 which required negotiating a number of stairs to get to/from it. Difficult with large suitcase and if any mobility issues. Will request room on elevator level in future"

Meriton Suites Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"If Melbourne is looking for ambassadors to give a good impression of their city they should start here. The amazing staff at the lobby were just the beginning. We loved our room, we loved the location, we loved the quick response when we asked for something. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and I will definitely stay again when I have the opportunity."

Hannah St Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect spot, will be back!"

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Little Collins by IHG

8/10 Good

"Hotel was quite good, with some quirks/problems. Room was very clean, well-appointed and a good layout. Bathroom was very modern with a good-sized shower, room had both a desk and a couch-like chair for relaxing spaces other than the bed. Staff were very helpful, breakfast was pretty solid (quite busy, but plenty of food and pretty decent quality), and the gym is pretty decent and available 24 hours. However, the experience was not perfect. Most prominently, the bed was quite bad, being somehow too firm and too springy at the same time, made worse by awful pillows (the soft may as well have been empty, the "firm" was still comically soft). Likewise, the kettle in our room was the only kitchen appliance available but it was slow, loud, and spilled water every time we used it. Also, the shower was large and okay to use but getting the water in a human-habitable temperature range was an exercise in frustration. Overall, very solid hotel in an absolutely incredible location, but not without it's drawbacks."

"The food was neutral."
