“Wonderful locationn for inner city Melbourne stay”

Reviewed 4 April 2013

A friend and I shared a 2 bedroom apartment for a five day girls catch up in Melbourne. Location is superb with proximity to St Kilda Rd trams and an easy stroll to city and southbank. Staff were pleasant and helpful throughout the stay. We chose the apartment so we could do some self catering. Range of kitchen utensils could... More

“Excellent family accommodation near the city”

Reviewed 24 March 2013

We stayed here Saturday 23 March so that we could participate in a fun run on Sunday morning. We booked quite early online, and requested a week or so later a late checkout so we could shower after our run. It couldnt be guaranteed, but we were asked to make contact closer to the date. We did this and a... More

“Excellent option in Melbourne city”

Reviewed 2 January 2013

I've stayed here a few times on business trips. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are spacious and well appointed and the location just south of the city centre and a short walk from the botanical garden is ideal. A tram stop is located less than 100m from the hotel, which provides access to all areas of the... More

“Perfect for business stay”

Stayed for a week in December for work in South Melbourne. Great location just off St Kilda Road and opposite the Botanic gardens. Hotel check-in is quick and easy and being a serviced apartment, I didn't really see reception again until I checked out. Apartment was fairly large for a one-bedder. Had a huge study area (bit of silly design... More

“Well located and quiet”

Reviewed 5 December 2012

We had a one bed apt that was well equipped, modern and clean. Comfy beds but hard pillows and no free WiFi, which in this day and age is not good. Even though we were on the 8th floor, our outdoor area faced a brick wall, so we had no view and it made the apt quite dark. The tram... More

“Well-located for NGV, Rod Laver Arena and Botanic Gardens”

Reviewed 17 November 2012 via mobile

A modern, clean apartment hotel, well-located to visit Botanic Gardens, Rod Laver Arena and the National Gallery of Victoria. The rooms are well-appointed including a kitchenette with dishwasher. Two bedroom apartments comfortably fit two couples and we easily got parking right out the front (free in weekends). A no-fuss stay in a convenient location at a reasonable price.

“Was okay, but....”

Reviewed 19 August 2012

Well, it was a good stay with the family. The downsides did include staying while they were upgrading the electricity in the building, so imagine our surprise to have power cut off to the room when we woke up in the morning. While it was nice to have them let us know it would happen (on check-in) the night before,... More
