Lyf Collingwood was the perfect place to spend our last night in Melbourne after our trip from Healesville! The hotel is modern, stylish, and incredibly comfortable — ideal for all kinds of travelers. The 24-hour reception was super helpful, especially with our 5am check-out before our early flight. The amenities had everything we needed, and even though it was a short one-night stay, it was smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend for a convenient and comfortable city stay!

I absolutely loved my stay at Lyf Collingwood! The location was perfect - well connected to Melbourne CBD but lots of cool shops and nightlife in the immediate vicinity. I felt safe and secure as a solo female traveller. All of the team were so friendly and always greeted me with a smile! I particularly enjoyed the free coffee every day which was freshly brewed and could be made exactly how I like it. The room was spotless, and had a unique character, with plenty of storage space and a decent shower. Housekeeping was provided due to the length of my stay, which was much appreciated! I also loved the comprehensive and detailed online guides to the local area, and the interactive TV. The bonus of having access to a kitchenette, laundry facilities, and larger kitchen downstairs was a huge plus, and I loved how the hotel grows their own herbs for guests to cook with! The hotel was quite quiet, and most guests kept to themselves, but I imagine that the social aspect would be more prominent during peak season. Overall, excellent value for money, and a perfect blend between a chic hotel and high-end hostel.

The hotel is clean and great location. It's principles are great- communal cooking area and available hydroponic herbs, recycled 'who give s a crap' toilet paper, free coffee in foyer, etc. But it's qualities stop there. The room was small, pokey, didn't have an openable window so no fresh air, the bathroom shower wet all the bathroom floor - unavoidable; the sink was too small to get washed in, and there was no option to have the bed made or linen/towels changed. As an expensive backpacker hostel maybe its ok, as a hotel it just doesn't provide the room you need.

Super awesome place with friendly staff. They have everything you need. Free coffee and gym too if you’re an Ascott member. Great neighbourhood too, near smith street a main lane with great food and Gertrude street - cute shops and good vibes.

We chose this hotel because it’s very cheap and relatively close to the city. Room was big enough for two and staff were helpful. However, we saw a dirty bed sheet when we arrived, don’t know if they really changed it after the previous guests left. Anyway we asked to change it and easy fix. Overall, good stay for get away city hustle and bustle.
