ibis Melbourne Glen Waverley bintang 3

While it isnt near town, this hotel is ideally located for a great feed at the nearby plethora of Asian eateries within 300m, although there is a nice eatery located at the hotel. Fantastic room and facilities, competitively priced and handy for getting around the Eastern corridor of Victoria.

We were welcomed by a friendly, smiling receptionist, Tharindu. He was very helpful, bringing out a luggage trolley for us and showing us where to park while checking in. In our room, we were greeted by a platter of mini desserts and a card congratulating us on our 30th Wedding Anniversary, signed by the manager. We then re-arranged the room to suit us for 2 days and nights, including swapping out the desk chair for some more comfortable chairs. We were very grateful for Tharindu's easy nature and helpfulness. The room was extremely quiet, only once or twice did we hear a door shut, otherwise we weren't interrupted by any other guests and their movements. We were on the top floor (6th) which had great views to the north, over the Monash City Council outdoor and carpark area with plenty of trees. At night, the Glen Waverley buildings lit up, providing a surprisingly exciting vibe, we felt like we were in another city, in another state, not 12 mins drive from our house! The Glen has plenty to offer with shopping, cinema and a myriad of restaurants. Our hotel was just a 10 minute walk from everything, so we were able to go out several times to have a meal, a movie and the odd bit of shopping for some breakfast supplies. We didn't eat in the hotel restaurant, but they were very kind to let us borrow some crockery and cutlery for our stay. Everything about our stay was positive except for the small matter of having to park off site. The car park underneath the hotel costs $20 per day, so we decided to park 1km away in neighbourhood streets for free. Most of the parking around The Glen is limited to 2 or 4 hours, so you'll need to walk a fair distance to find parking spots.

Great Place to stay. Nice and helpful staff. Shopping Mall is just nearby. Far from CBD City. Parkings are available on street. Value for money. It's highly recommendable. Neat and Clean and Nice rooms.

We booked this hotel when we required one night’s accommodation in Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs. While this is pitched as a moderate priced hotel in the Accor Group, the hotel and room did not feel budget in any way. We were pleasantly surprised at how well maintained the hotel was, and the size and layout of our room which was spacious and pleasant. Our accommodation did not include undercover parking which was an additional $20 per night but we were easily able to find free parking in the public car park as it was the weekend. The room had tea/coffee making with milk in the fridge. Where the budget aspect of the accommodation is evident is that the room doesn’t have any wine glasses etc. (not sure if this was an oversight on the part of the cleaning staff as they had also forgotten to leave soap). The staff at reception were very pleasant and polite to deal with. The hotel is walking distance to Kings Way which is bustling area with so many interesting and varied restaurants. This alone makes this hotel a good choice in this area. Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay at IBIS. The hotel is clean and well maintained and the rooms are excellent for the price. We will definitely stay again. Recommended for anyone looking for a well located, well priced hotel close to restaurants and the Glen Waverly train station.

The room was comfortable and quite, there was hair on the bed on arrival. When they made the room up after the first night they didn’t bother taking the rubbish away. When exiting the lift the manager and another guest just stood in my way talking so I couldn’t get out without pushing past, could just be me being picky I don’t know. Decided to eat in one night never again. Told to take a seat anywhere and then didn’t worry about taking my order, I had to approach them. Food was obviously microwaved. Came out with in minutes and wasn’t even hot. Tried to order wine and the didn’t have 1 of the 3 I tried to order. A long dark hair in the sauce of the lamb shank as well. 🤢
