Grand Hyatt Melbourne
Staying at Grand Hyatt Melbourne was an absolute highlight of my trip to Melbourne. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the city center, with plenty of dining, shopping, and attractions nearby. My room offered breathtaking views of the skyline and Royal Park, especially stunning during sunrise and sunset. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night’s sleep. Staff were friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Everything about this hotel felt premium without being overpriced. It’s clear they care about guest experience. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Melbourne—and I’ll definitely be coming back.
The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne
Staying at The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne was an absolute highlight of my trip. The entrance isn’t on Spencer Street—instead, you enter from Lonsdale or Little Lonsdale Streets and take the elevator straight up to the 80th-floor lobby. From the moment you step in, the concierge greets you warmly every time you come and go—it’s such a thoughtful touch. Breakfast, afternoon tea, and dinner are all served on the top floor, offering breathtaking views over the Yarra River and Docklands. The panoramic rooms deliver stunning sunrises and sunsets, even if the glass has a slight tint and the viewing angles are somewhat limited—still, the vista is unforgettable. My room was on floors 60–79, quiet and luxurious with excellent privacy. Breakfast features a small but fresh selection of fruits, bread, and yogurt, while drinks and main dishes are à la carte—though the quality more than makes up for the variety. I especially loved the hand-poured coffee. All bath amenities are Diptyque—luxurious and fragrant—and the bathtub is deep and relaxing. After exploring the city, returning to my room, having a light snack, and soaking in the tub was the perfect way to unwind. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience, and the value is truly exceptional.
Park Hyatt Melbourne
This newly renovated five-star hotel stands out from the rest—spacious rooms and incredible value for money. The only minor downside is the location: only a bus stop right outside, with a 5 to 8-minute walk to the nearest train station. But honestly, everything else more than makes up for it. From the moment you step in, the service is impeccable, the ambiance is elegant, and the breakfast is absolutely delicious—fresh, varied, and well-prepared. I even got to meet the hotel’s friendly Labrador during my stay—it was such a sweet surprise! This little moment added a personal touch that made the experience feel warm and welcoming. Overall, an outstanding stay, and I’d definitely return.
Sofitel Melbourne on Collins
Staying at this hotel was an absolute highlight of my trip to Melbourne. Located right in the heart of the city, it’s incredibly convenient for exploring top attractions, shopping, or business meetings—everything is just a short walk away. The room view is spectacular, with floor-to-ceiling windows that open up to breathtaking cityscapes. Watching the skyline light up at night was truly magical. The staff went above and beyond with their professionalism and warmth, making every interaction smooth and welcoming. Despite being in the middle of the city, the hotel feels surprisingly quiet and peaceful—like a serene retreat amidst the urban buzz. It’s not just a place to stay; it’s an experience. I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Melbourne, whether for leisure or work.
Pan Pacific Melbourne
My stay coincided with my birthday, and since my flight arrived at 7 a.m., I headed straight to the hotel. To my surprise, they allowed me check-in at 9 a.m.—something I’ve never experienced before, as most hotels require you to wait until 2 p.m. even if rooms are available. What a fantastic start to my special day! After a long-haul flight, I was exhausted and grateful for the early access to a quiet, spacious room with an amazing view of the city. The evening dining experience at the hotel’s restaurant was memorable too—because it was my birthday, they surprised me with a bottle of wine and a small cake. It felt so personal and thoughtful. The room itself was luxurious, well-appointed, and offered excellent value for money. From the warm welcome to the little extras, this was truly a perfect stay. I’d definitely return in the future.
Pullman Melbourne City Centre
Staying at Pullman Melbourne City Centre was an absolute highlight of my trip! From the moment I booked, the attention to detail was clear—right through to a little surprise upon check-in that made me feel truly welcomed. The room itself is stylish and spacious, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering breathtaking views of the city skyline. Waking up to that view instantly lifted my mood. The bathroom is a standout—huge soaking tub perfect for unwinding after a long day. I especially loved the afternoon tea and dinner options; both were beautifully presented and created such a warm, inviting atmosphere. This isn’t just a hotel—it’s part of the experience. If you’re looking for a romantic getaway or simply want to treat yourself in the heart of Melbourne, this place delivers on every level. Highly recommend!
InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto
Staying at InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto was an absolute delight from start to finish. The room service was attentive and thoughtful—every detail, from fresh linens to a little welcome note, made me feel truly cared for. The room itself was immaculate, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable, with a perfect blend of modern luxury and classic elegance. I appreciated the quiet atmosphere, especially after a long day exploring Melbourne. Located just two blocks from Southern Cross Station, getting around the city was effortless—walkable and convenient without the hassle of transit delays. The building’s historic façade adds charm, and the overall ambiance is refined yet welcoming. For travelers who value comfort, location, and attention to detail, this hotel is a top-tier choice.
Hyatt Centric Melbourne
Staying at Hyatt Centric Melbourne was an absolute highlight of my trip! The location is unbeatable—right next to Southern Cross Station, just a 5-minute walk to Flinders Street Railway Station. It's also within the free tram zone, making getting around super convenient. Everything I wanted—from restaurants and cafes to shopping and attractions—was just a short stroll away. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a great bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. Breakfast was generous and delicious, offering a variety of options to suit all tastes. Overall, the value for money is excellent. This hotel truly delivers on comfort, convenience, and quality—definitely a top pick if you're visiting Melbourne.
Hilton Melbourne Little Queen St
Staying at Hilton Melbourne Little Queen St was a great experience overall. The hotel is incredibly convenient—right outside the door, you have free tram service, making it super easy to get around the city and explore all the major attractions. I asked housekeeping for slippers, toothbrush, comb, and a firmer latex pillow, and they arrived promptly with no delay—great service! Breakfast was a bit limited: just a few steamed dumplings and the standard English breakfast, which felt a little repetitive. That said, it was still satisfying and got the job done. One thing to note—the rooms face a busy street and a narrow alleyway, so don’t expect scenic views; the windows are more about privacy than panorama. But honestly, that didn’t affect my stay much. Clean rooms, friendly staff, excellent location, and good value for money. Definitely would return.
Imagine Marco
Staying at Imagine Marco for the second time was an absolute delight! This time, I met a young white staff member who genuinely loved Chinese culture—her friendly and thoughtful attitude stood out compared to others. I paid $30 to check in three hours early, and it was totally worth it—I got a spacious two-bedroom unit with excellent space and comfort. The laundry room even has a dryer, which made my trip so much easier. Best part? The view! True sea-facing views that look straight over Melbourne’s vibrant cityscape. Across from the building is Melbourne Square apartment complex, and right downstairs is a supermarket—perfect for grabbing essentials without needing to go far. It’s just a 20-minute walk to the city center, making it super convenient for exploring. From location and amenities to staff hospitality, this place truly delivers on every level. A top-tier stay that I’d highly recommend!
Quest Southbank
Staying at Quest Southbank was an absolute highlight of my trip to Melbourne. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk from the city center and surrounded by great restaurants, cafes, and shopping spots. The apartment-style room was spacious and well-designed, offering plenty of room to relax without feeling cramped. I especially appreciated the airport transfer service arranged via email—prompt, professional, and the driver showed up right on time. It made my arrival stress-free and seamless. If I ever come back to Melbourne, this will be my top choice again. Highly recommend for travelers who want comfort, convenience, and value—all in one.
Quincy Hotel Melbourne
I recently stayed at Quincy Hotel Melbourne for a mix of business and leisure, and it was an outstanding choice—especially for travelers who value smart pricing without compromising on comfort or style. From the moment I walked in, the modern, tech-forward design stood out, with a vibrant lobby that felt energetic yet welcoming. The included amenities made a real difference: top-quality coffee, complimentary evening drinks, and a well-stocked mini-bar that added unexpected luxury to the stay. Even though the room is compact (as expected in a central city location), it was thoughtfully laid out, quiet, and fully equipped with everything needed for a relaxing getaway. Location-wise, being right on Commercial Place puts you steps away from the CBD, major transport hubs, and Melbourne’s famous laneways—perfect for exploring on foot. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the staff were friendly and efficient. While larger rooms are available upon request, this one was ideal for solo travelers or couples. With its unbeatable location, thoughtful touches, and overall great value, I’d definitely come back and recommend Quincy Hotel to anyone visiting Melbourne.
