Mercure Melbourne City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and well maintained property"

The Victoria Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"I have stayed at the Victoria several times with no complaints, but this time I was disappointed, the bed was uncomfortable and there was an absolutely disgusting odour in the bathroom. Then an altercation with a staff member who did not want to honour a discount which was offered when eating at the restaurant, he was rude and condescending."

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Southbank by IHG

8/10 Good

"Great location and easy to get to everything we wanted to do. Breakfast was good. The beds a tad firm for my taste. If you are not comfortable with your travel partner the bathroom arrangement is not my favourite: frosted glass, inch of open space, no sound proofing."

Rendezvous Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Great location in the heart of the CBD with easy access to transport options. I stay regularly for work and the rooms are always clean and tidy and check-in is easy. My last stay, the hairdryer was broken and there was no conditioner in the shower, but otherwise it was a comfortable stay."

Rydges Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed overnight to see a show at Her Majesties theatre. Walking distance to hotel is why we initially booked our stay. We were both extremely happy with our stay. Front staff were very friendly and it took just moments to get us checked in. Room was beyond our expectations. Clean , modern , spacious. We took advantage of pre theatre menu at Bossley restaurant on site and had a very enjoyable meal on a relaxing atmosphere. Late checkout in morning was very appreciated after a late night. We will definately stay again. Thank You Ridges Hotel Melbourne."
