Novotel Melbourne on Collins

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel has a great central location, making it easy to access many city venues. The staff were great and the room comfortable."

Pegasus Apart'Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Staff at reception was not friendly or helpful. Strict about check in time, didn’t let us in even for an hour earlier. We were so tired after a long flight from Canada. They made us waited in the lobby till 3pm. Also, they did not provide slippers because of our room was not “luxury” enough… only gave us one pair after I promised to give them a review. We stayed for four nights and couldn’t get two pairs for two people?! Yes, here is the true reviews!"
