Great breakfast, pool, good location with sophs and transport nearby

Patricia F. Couples - 1/25/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed two weeks here as visiting family. Good deal / price for long term stay. It was a 2 min walk from my daughter’s apartment, so the location was perfect for us as But the area itself is great - so many cafes, bars and restaurants on the doorstep. Tram and train station a few minutes walk for easy access to Melbourne or the beach. Loved the vibe here. We also walked into Melbourne along the Yarra river which I’d also recommend about a 45 min walk maybe, but beautiful. Everyone at the hotel was friendly and polite. There was building work at one side of the hotel, which our room overlooked. When I queried this, they were able to offer us another room which was greatly appreciated. It had a kitchenette- fridge, cooker ring and microwave which as we were there for 2 weeks, was handy for making lunch or breakfast.We didn’t use the gym but did try the swimming pool. It was grand, but it has part open glass on the street side so from the street you can see people swimming which was a bit odd. Didn’t stop us using or enjoying the pool. Would recommend this hotel and the area. Loved our stay here.

Felt super secure and comfortable

David L. Couples - 1/25/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

We would have liked our request to investigate and solve the regular beeping noise heard in our room to have been actioned. 3 double beeps were occurring every 90 seconds..it’s not relaxing

The location is well serviced by public transport as well as walking distance to many Melbourne attractions, the rooms are a good size and the facilities are first class.
