Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Close to the station. great twin room."

Great Southern Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Easy check in. I had asked for two single beds but when I got to my room the single beds were still in a king bed formation, However, a quick call to reception and housekeeping fixed the issue within 10 mins. Very central and close to public transport. Basic but neat and tidy. Beds were comfortable. I didn’t access parking as I travelled on public transport to get there. I would happily stay again."

Rendezvous Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place to stay if you love the cbd and the surrounding things to do within the cbd. I walked pretty much everywhere (outskirts as well) and the city is just a wonderful things to experience from outside (not in a car). The location of hotel is great because the tram is literally right across the street while travel supplies (toiletries) is found in a store about a block away (less than a 10 minute walk). Bars and restaurants are close by too."
