“Great Location, just make sure you close the curtains!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2010

Great Location, just make sure you close the curtains because you have a 'city' view aka the building across the road. And when you can see the people across the road through your net curtains and they wave to you, you suddenly realise that they can see you! Now I am thinking that I am wrong when I assumed hotels in the city had tinted or mirrored windows, but I have learnt my lesson now!!!!

Close to the casino and great restaurants, this is a good place to base yourself for a weekend in melbourne.

Pay with cash and you avoid the cheeky fees.

“Nice, Clean and Central”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2010

I stayed at this property for a long weekend on a trip to watch sport. The service on arrival was fast and friendly and the room were spacious clean and comfortable. The hotel is close to city centre and Flinders St Railway station and also close to the Crown Entertainment Area.
There is no restaurant as such at the hotel although they do breakfast, but a few local restaurants deliver to your room.
I found the hotel to be is a great spot and will stay there again.

“Perfect location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2010

The room was spacious, the view was pleasant, the location was very handy to Federation Square and public transport and the centre of the city. Travelodge Southbank is directly in line with the footbridge over the Yarra River which runs from behind Flinders Station to the Southbank. The area is always well-lit and lively at night and as soon as you get across the bridge, the hotel can been seen in front of you. A very pleasant and lively location at night just for wandering, enjoying the city lights and an icecream. The room was very clean and someone tidies and makes the bed every day. The heatpump/cooler was annoying but most hotels have these now. There was always someone on reception and they were very friendly and helpful, the only complaint I have is that they forgot to give me a wakeup call when I was leaving for the airport at 3.45am - luckily I set my own alarm. There is also a 24hr taxi rank outside the door and it cost $9 to get to the Southern Cross Station for the skybus. I would stay here again, it was even slightly cheaper than the small noisy apartment room I had on the other side of town for the first night.

“Can't sleep”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2010

We stayed at the Travelodge in 2 rooms - 1 with Queen bed, and one with 2 single beds. In neither room could anyone get a good night's sleep. Some feral-smelling cleaning compound had been used, which caused us to cough all night, and gave my Mother, in particulaly, a raging headache. There is no way to open a window, and the airconditioning is noisy and rattling. The two single beds were as hard as rocks, and terribly hot - as though a rubber sheet was underneath.

The buffet breakfast was passable.
