My family and I checked in to the Pensione Hotel for 7 days and it was worth the money. Check-in was quick and fuss-free. Rooms were OK in size, for what we paid (we chose a double and triple) however the shower was a little too cramped for our liking. We still managed though, and for the price we paid,... More

We stayed here recently for the Australian Open and were i3 adults in a triple room. The room was excellent and serviced every day. The bathroom was tiny and would be my only criticism, but once again, it was clean and serviced daily. Every morning of the Tennis Open a full list of players on all courts was available and... More

We've stayed here twice now. The rooms are small but they're perfectly functional and for the price, they're great value. The staff have always been very friendly and helpful and the location is ideal for the Skybus and free trams to the F1 at Albert Park and the Australian Open. We've stayed there during busy times but both rooms have... More

On arrival we were upgraded from a twin to a triple. As stated in other comments, the bathroom is tiny and might be a problem for larger people or people with a disability. Watch when turning the tap on in hand basin, easy to get it all over yourself. There was also mould on some of the tiles in the... More

Our family stayed here for 3 nights. Two older parents with a 22 year old son in a 3 bed room. It was perfect, clean & well maintained. When you are traveling you spend so little time in your room. The rooftop terrace was delightful. I'd rather stay here than some over rated chain hotel where you could be anywhere... More

Coping with the tiny bathroom was undoubtably the low point of an adequate budget hotel in a good location for sightseeing provided you don't have a car. Parkingis impossible and it is not even possible for a taxi to stop on the major road at the front. Room was tired and the lifts overstreatched with constant traffic. Cannot really recommend... More

For a busy weekend in Melbourne, the Pensione Hotel is fantastic. Location, close to Southern Cross Station and its connection to the airport, made travel a breeze. The staff at the front desk were friendly and helpful and we were very pleased when we received an upgrade to the Courtyard Suite. The room was spotlessly clean and had all the... More

Melbourne is expensive. Australia in general is, to be fair. So I searched and searched and came up with this little gem. It's in a great location, very clean, very comfortable beds, although as other reviews have noted - yes - the rooms are small. But since I was visiting Australia for the first time, a hotel is a place... More

My daughter and I recently spent a night at the Melbourne Pensione and had very mixed feelings about it. For: Location - good location for most of Melbourne's city sights Upgrade - we were upgraded from a 2 singles to a triple room (which apparently was bigger but if that is so, I would hate to have seen the double...
