10/10 Excellent

"This is a nice hotel that offers great location clean and tidy rooms The breakfast was excellent We have stayed here on numerous occasions Great value for money"

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Little Collins by IHG

8/10 Good

"Hotel was quite good, with some quirks/problems. Room was very clean, well-appointed and a good layout. Bathroom was very modern with a good-sized shower, room had both a desk and a couch-like chair for relaxing spaces other than the bed. Staff were very helpful, breakfast was pretty solid (quite busy, but plenty of food and pretty decent quality), and the gym is pretty decent and available 24 hours. However, the experience was not perfect. Most prominently, the bed was quite bad, being somehow too firm and too springy at the same time, made worse by awful pillows (the soft may as well have been empty, the "firm" was still comically soft). Likewise, the kettle in our room was the only kitchen appliance available but it was slow, loud, and spilled water every time we used it. Also, the shower was large and okay to use but getting the water in a human-habitable temperature range was an exercise in frustration. Overall, very solid hotel in an absolutely incredible location, but not without it's drawbacks."
