The best location to stay when you’re in Melbourne. Easy access to public transport (trams just in front of the hotel) lots of cafés and restaurants nearby. Convenience stores as well. It’s a 10/10 for me. Friendly staff. Highly recommended

Great stay in a super convenient location The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a very comfortable bed and everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The hotel itself is well maintained, quiet, and feels like a great balance between business-friendly and leisure-ready. Staff were friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful from check-in to check-out, which always makes a big difference. Overall, great value for money in a central location. I’d happily stay here again and would recommend it to anyone visiting Melbourne for work or a short city break 😊

If you want more than 10mins sleep, don't book here. We were originally on the 3rd floor, but instantly the trains were so noisy, so we did get moved to the 15th, but Ive never heard public transport like it. No tv except for your own Netflix account.Go somewhere else, trust me! 2nd photo is the view, you look right into everyone's apartment, and you can seeing everything! (river is behind it). We paid $450 for one night and I have never felt so completely ripped off.

Hotel was conveniently located and very functional, a 10mins walk to Southern Cross Station, 20mins to South Melbourne Market. There’s a washer and dryer in the room, so useful!

Prime location, just 5 mins walk from South Cross station. There is a tram station right in front of hotel entrance. However, the office hour of concierge is 8am to 8pm. Late arrival would be a concern.

It is highly recommended to get the suite with the river view! The view from the window is absolutely gorgeous. The suite is huge, clean, and modern; I really have nothing to complain about regarding my stay. However, their reception closes at 8 PM. If you plan to check in late, you need to pre-fill their forms and other information, and you only receive the instructions for your keys later that evening. I found this to be inconvenient and unsettling. This was the only downside of my stay.

Clean and quiet, Can see a good view from the apartment. Very good location, one tram stop in front of the apartment, so convenient.

The hotel is very conveniently located in the city centre with multiple tram stations within minutes' walk away. The Southern Cross railway station is just 4 minutes walk away. There are convenience shops and good cafes near the hotel too. I had everything I needed in the room - from washing machine to dish washing liquid. My room was facing the river and the view was great. Downside is the trams and trains do get noisy, especially if the windows are open. It didn't affect my sleep though. Reception is only open between 8am - 8pm. A friend also booked this hotel and he was arriving at midnight so he arranged security box to pick up his keys and it was smooth. The aircon makes some clicking noises, that did wake me at night. My friend mentioned the same issue with the aircon in his room.
