Top Melbourne Waterfront Hotel Reviews

The Victoria Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"The Victoria Hotel remains my fave place to stay in Melbourne. However, as an older establishment, if you want the aircon to be whisper quiet, the best option may be to turn it off overnight, depending upon your room allocation. I also experienced the constant quiet sound of flowing water, coming from somewhere outside my room on this occasion."

Grand Hyatt Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Very attentive staff and clean room."

Pegasus Apart'Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Hannah St Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"A hidden gem practically on the doorstep of the Crown Casino. Front of house staff were great and the bed was very comfy."

Rydges Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Easy self check in, lovely interior decorating, friendly helpful staff, central location good food and bar"

ibis Melbourne Hotel and Apartments

8/10 Good

"Well located"

Great Southern Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"We had a basic room with no house keeping,it was clean and suitable for what we needed."

Novotel Melbourne on Collins

8/10 Good

"As others have noted, the lifts are something of a bother but if you aren’t rushing to get somewhere then it isn’t a problem. In terms of cleanliness, the place “felt” clean but unfortunately we found someone else’s drink bottle on our windowsill so I guess there’s room for improvement. Location is absolutely splendid, and the food and drink available on site were great and (for the city) reasonably priced. We very much enjoyed food service to our room and breakfast was just wonderful."

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Little Collins by IHG
