Top Waterways Hotel Reviews

Grand Hyatt Melbourne

Grand Hyatt Melbourne

10/10 Excellent
"The most iconic Hotel in Melbourne in the 'Art Deco' style.. it is very sad though that the new owners from Singapore who are large retail investors, dont understand the significance of the hotels history or its presence in the future as they are undertaking Hume renovations that will removed the ground floor reception and bar/restaurant area and remove the lower foyer making way for increased retail space which in the location is all ready overserviced. Once the changes are made it will ruin the facade and tge vibe of this grand hotel."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Waterways?
The best time to visit Waterways is during the shoulder seasons of autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November).

During these months, you'll experience pleasant, mild weather, which is ideal for enjoying the outdoor activities Waterways is known for, such as exploring the walking paths and enjoying the waterfront views. The temperatures are comfortable, making it superb for leisurely strolls or dining al fresco without the intense heat of summer or the chill of winter.

For those looking to enjoy the waterways themselves, whether it's kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply relaxing by the water, spring and autumn offer calm conditions and fewer crowds than the peak summer period.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Waterways hotel for you.
How much is the nightly rate at a Waterways hotel?
Hotel prices in Waterways often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
