Hotels in Southbank

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent stay – would definitely return Seamless check-in with really helpful staff. The apartment was spacious and had lovely city views. It’s in a great spot — perfect for a stroll along Southbank and easy walking distance to many of Melbourne’s main attractions. Everything was very clean, and the kitchen was well equipped for self-catering, with a handy local shop right next door. The gym was great too. Overall, a comfortable, convenient stay — I’d happily stay here again."

"A staycation to celebrate our son’s 14th Birthday. Access to Swimming Pool and Gym. We also get a bit of a view from the 25th Floor Definitely Recommended"

"Great sized room in ideal location. We stayed in a doublke queen room which was clean and tidy. The pool is great and the cafe service next to it was a bonus. The staff are very helpful always with a smile."

"The room was spacious, breakfast buffet was excellent, good location. Pool, gym and sauna was great!"

"Happy stay with you. The breakfast is great. The location is excellent. But there is only 1 chair in the room."

"The location felt a bit inconvenient to me. While it’s relatively close to some attractions, it’s still a bit of a walk to the Free Tram Zone, which makes it less ideal if you don’t want to rely on Uber. For travelers, buying a Myki card just to take trams or buses didn’t feel very worthwhile either. In terms of price, cleanliness, and overall vibe, the hotel was pretty good. The lobby and common areas had a modern, stylish feel, and the room itself was kept clean. However, in my room there was a large door next to the bed that couldn’t be opened, but I could still feel the draft and hear quite a lot of wind noise coming through. The room size was surprisingly small for the price point. I was a bit shocked at how compact it was when I first walked in. The bathroom and shower area also seemed poorly designed—if you opened the doors the wrong way, they could easily hit each other, which didn’t feel very safe. I didn’t use the parking or breakfast options, so I can’t comment on those. Overall, it’s a decent place for a short stay, but if you’re looking for spacious rooms or a super convenient location, it might fall short."

"My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stayed in Oakwood Premier Hotel. The receptionist guy on Friday Morning, 10th Jan, was super nice, friendly and kind. He changed our room facing the city view. We went straight to the hotel after we arrive in Melbourne to put our luggage in their luggage storage because the check in start at 3pm. However, our room were already ready, so we managed to get some sleep and rest. The bed is so comfortable and we got a amazing view! So I really enjoyed our stay there for the whole time! What a great first travel experience in Melbourne! Surely, we will be back!"

"This is my 4th times staying at this hotel. This time I got room 2207 for 4 nights and continue with 1206 for 10 nights. 2207 has a very nice view. I got the sunrise view on my first morning. I love staying in this hotel because it’s very near to my son’s apartment, walking distance to Crown Casino area, and near to the tram stop. Very convenient. The front desk staff also very friendly and helpful. The only inconsistent thing is the cleaning service. Sometimes they forgot to replace the bathroom mat, forgot to clean the bathroom floor, forgot to throw away the garbage and forgot to refill the tea and coffee. I got one hot chocolate drink that already expired."

"The hotel has an excellent location, very convenient for getting around Melbourne. The room was very clean and well maintained, and the service throughout our stay was excellent. Staff were friendly, professional, and helpful. We highly recommend Mercure Melbourne Southbank and would happily stay here again."

"The location is very good, just on the south bank of the Yarra River. Close to cbd. Just crossing the bridge. It is a 10-minute walk to the ngv Victoria Arts Centre. I was watching an art exhibition by Kaws Studios that day."
