Booked 2 rooms over June weekend. Caught up with family members involving Friday night football and some shopping. A very convenient location to do both and plenty of choice restaurants nearby. Friendly and helpful reception and rooms were clean and really comfortable beds. Parking was a bit congested at times but as it was included in the tariff proved much... More

The property has been recently renovated lifting it above its motel like design. Location is good - easy access to city centre as well many restaurants near by. Found the room a little bit noisy from passing traffic and also early risers trolling their luggage along the open walkway. But still managed a good night's sleep. Staff were responsive to... More

I had three nights at the Downtowner and also participated in a workshop convened in their conference rooms. The hotel rooms are clean and well appointed; the reception was welcoming and informative; the catering for the workshop participants was very good. All in all I rate this place as value for money given the location and facilities. Definitely would come... More

Excellent location for Lygon St. Clean and comfortable if a bit noisy from volume of traffic. Staff are friendly but do talk amongst themselves a bit in the dinning room and avail themselves of the coffee machine. Food selection tasty and generous portion sizes. Could benefit from being a little more attentive to customers.

Very conveniently located to business needs in Carlton, stayed at the Downtowner for 2 nights. Room appeared to be recently rejuvenated and was very surprised and pleased. Excellently located on the Lygon food strip and public transport close by (not that I needed it, but it's there).

Actually, 3 1/2 stars. The motel rooms in this establishment are obviously of the typical, dated design that were churned out around the country time and again. You walk in and think “Ah ha” as you recognise the familiar set-up. However, even with this present design, the Downtowner has tried to refresh the dated presentation, breathing freshness into the motel... More

Dear maxwellsmart86, Thank you for review, and I appreciate your thoughts on our design, even if i do not agree with them per se. As you noted we have updated our interiors and extra space - especially in the bathrooms which gives a far comfortable setting than you would find in a dated motel.

Downtowner on Lygon is quite comfortable, in a motel kind of way, with a spacious bathroom and enough room for two comfortably in the room itself. Close to restaurant strip, on the right side of town for airport connections and convenient to the city, happy to recommend for a night or two when visiting Melbourne.
