Quest Ivanhoe
I stayed at Quest Ivanhoe for 80 nights and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. The apartment was spacious, comfortable, and felt like home from day one. Thanks to the long-term stay discount, the nightly rate was incredibly reasonable—great value for such a well-maintained and thoughtfully designed space. The staff were consistently friendly and attentive without ever being intrusive, which made the whole stay feel personal yet private. I appreciated how easy it was to live independently while still having support nearby when needed. The location is quiet but convenient—everything I needed was just steps away, from shops to transport. Bianca and her team clearly care about delivering genuine hospitality, and that shows in every detail. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a reliable, homely base in Melbourne. Wishing Bianca and her amazing team continued success—they’re doing something special here.
Punthill Ivanhoe
Staying at Punthill Ivanhoe was a great experience overall. The apartment comes with a fully equipped kitchen, which made cooking meals at home super convenient—no need to rely on takeout. I also appreciated having both a washing machine and dryer, perfect for longer stays. The only downside was some road noise during the night, which slightly disrupted sleep, but it’s manageable. The location is very central, close to public transit, making it easy to explore Melbourne. If you value independence and comfort, this is a solid choice with excellent value for money.
Centrepoint Units Heidelberg
I had a fantastic stay at the Centrepoint Units Heidelberg! The host, Leigh, was incredibly welcoming and responsive—offered to store my luggage after check-out until my flight, which was such a helpful gesture. The unit is perfectly located just steps away from hospitals, restaurants, and a supermarket, making it super convenient for both short visits and longer stays. The space itself is clean, tidy, and well-maintained, with everything I needed right at hand. It’s a great choice if you’re looking for a comfortable, hassle-free base in Melbourne’s Heidelberg area.
