Stamford Plaza Melbourne

CBD Melbourne|0.26km from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology
My husband and have stayed at The Stamford Plaza times many times over the years and have always loved it, but this was the first time bringing the kids, as we wanted to treat them to a special night out in the school holidays. PROS - The pool and spa were the highlight of our trip. After reading some previous reviews about the water being too cold we were a little concerned, but they were both absolutely wonderful. The pool area was clean and the pool was lovely and warm. The spa was perfect and HOT - just the way we love it. My children LOVED the glass elevator, this was a real thrill for them and they are already asking when we can go back to go in it again. We did meet some lovely staff during our stay, and check in and check out was fast and easy. The room was nice and clean. There is absolutely no view of the city lights (we were looking out onto a wall) but this is just due to the location and can't be helped. The central location is fantastic. CONS - No valet - I'm sure this was a service that used to be offered in the past? Our bags took nearly 2 hours to be delivered to our room, and this was time wasted that we were planning on heading out to explore the city. They only arrived after several follow up calls asking how much longer they would be. We only had 2 towels (and no robes) in our bathroom, even though our booking was for a family of 4. When our bags arrived, we asked the gentleman to please provide 2 more towels for the kids but they never came. We ended up needing to take 2 extra towels from the pool area back to our room. Our 'Indulgence Package' included a bottle of wine which we were told would be brought up to the room. This also never came and I needed to ask for it upon checking out. The real let down though was the buffer breakfast, which was included in our package. We have stayed at many 4 and 5 star hotels and this was possibly the worst breakfast we have come across - I wouldn't even rate it a 2. The coffee machine was broken, and there was no service asking if we would like a fresh tea or coffee. My son had the pancakes (pre-made sitting out with the bread) and he said they tasted stale and crumbled in his mouth. The hot food (eggs, bacon, tomato, hash brown) were all stone COLD - not even luke warm. I considered asking if they could pop my plate into the microwave to heat them up but lost my appetite wondering how long it had been just sitting out there. And the fresh fruit was dry and looked like it had been sitting out a long time. I wish we hadn't taken take package with breakfast included, as we could have had a hot breakfast for much less $$ from the McDonalds just around the corner. Our package also included late check out to 12 noon however our keys did not allow us entry back in after 11am. OVERALL - We would stay at the Stamford again however I think they need to advertise it for what it truly is - a 4 star hotel. We have stayed at many 5 star hotels in Melbourne such as Crown Towers, the Langam and the H

Hotel Grand Chancellor Melbourne
3.9/5108 Reviews
CBD
Centrally located this hotel is just above average. Secure Parking next door is offered but not guaranteed. Room service food is ok but not as hot as you would expect. Room is a good size & clean and neat. Staff very friendly. Good for a few days or overnight stay. Restaurants in the area are varied and abundant.
Mantra on Russell Melbourne

The location is good and it is very lively to go out. On the side is Chinatown. The food is very rich. It is also close to the concentrated place for us to join the tour group. The hotel facilities are very ordinary. It feels that it has been clean for a few years but the cleaning is still clean.

The room was clean and tidy. Every day there were people cleaning up the signs. Like other hotels, there are no slippers, toothbrushes, and the kettle is expected to ask at the front desk. Anyway, we bought the water ourselves. The hotel is very good next to Chinatown. It ’s easy to walk
The Victoria Hotel, an EVT hotel

pros: Good situation, Convenient transportation nearby. cons: Maybe cause of detergent or disinfectant of bed sets, I felt my skin was itchy that never happened the hotels I lived before. After I lay down in the bed for 20mins, the itchy feeling came. When I went out, no itchy feeling came. We three people lived in this hotel, I was the first person to feel that. lateron, other two felt like I was. Alo, one of staffs at the front desk is not professional, my room number is 339, I said three thirty nine, he didn't know; I said double three nine, he didn't get it ether and he said I said wrong number. These number expressions are common in the North America
Melbourne CBD Central Apartment Hotel
3.7/5105 Reviews
CBD
Fantastic location, solidly built apartments…. However…. Air con and heating didn’t work, two out of four overhead lights didn’t work ( holes in the plaster where light switches had been removed). During our four night stay our room was serviced once by housekeeping, and they left the door unlocked afterwards, so we came back to an open apartment after a day out exploring Melbourne. Only one key available for the room as well which was limiting for a family with older teenage children. Reception staff were lovely, so helpful and apologetic. They seemed overrun by issues though and couldn’t do much to address the fundamental issues!
Pullman Melbourne City Centre

We booked a quick trip to Melbourne for the footy. Because it was only 1 night we booked only a basic king room, and I also wanted to avoid a noisy 09 room. Arrived at reception to be informed they had upgraded us to an 09 room. I told the check in agent I did not want that room, despite it being an upgrade, and would be quite happy with the original room booked. She insisted on contacting the manager and they eventually moved us to an executive suite. This was a large and comfortable room, excellent bathroom and shower and comfortable bed. We did not notice any loud noise from Swanston Street from this suite. Quick trip up to the club lounge for a few drinks and nibbles before footy. Drink selection improved since our last visit and now a selection of spirits is available. Club lounge has nice staff. Breakfast there in the morning was also good. The club lounge has very nice decor. Will be back for 3 nights in August so hopefully will be as enjoyable.
