InterContinental Hotels Melbourne, an IHG Hotel

Melbourne Central Business District Melbourne|0.99km from Melbourne Central
Stayed here as a Diamond Ambassador in an iconic suite - Check in experience was great, warm welcome, benefits acknowledged and welcome drink provided. Amazing room, ridiculous amount of space, comfortable bed, great little office/working area. Unfortunately, the general level of service/care factor is lacking especially when staying in a room costing over 1k a night! One of my complimentary water bottles was open/used and about half empty, yuck. Later that day I wanted to use my $25 credit on the minibar 200ml bottle of gin (which is listed as inclusive of 4 mixers). Gin was missing from the mini bar I couldn't find it. Called down to reception to ask if it was by request, they assured me it should be there and would send someone up. Waited 2 hours and no one came which frustrated me as I was waiting so called down again and was assured someone was on the way. Someone did arrive with a huge bag full of everything except the gin. When questioned didn't seem to know what I was talking about, I had to point to it on the minibar menu and was met with a very confused expression, he left. Then about 30 minutes later a different person arrives with the gin bottle, success. However upon checkout there were a bunch of mini bar items charged which I hadn't consumed, and in fact were not even missing. I hate having to have that conversation but after only 3 words they were ”happy to remove them” which makes me think this isn't an uncommon occurrence. I later noticed that the mixers were charged as well where as they should have been included with the gin purchase cost, but I couldn't be bothered wasting my time to try and sort it out. Club lounge service was attentive but did fill up and get quite busy in the evenings however my drink was always topped up and the staff there were friendly and engaging. Temperature control seems non-existent in the room and I'm convinced it makes no difference what you set it to. I had my do not disturb on until mid morning, so as I was leaving for the day dropped by reception and said I may have missed housekeeping and could they have someone make up the room. Arrived back a few hours later and it hadn't been done. All up a real mixed bag here, but can't help feel my simple requests were a bother and inconvenience.

We booked a loft room and had been eyeing off this hotel for over a year as one we would like to try. Unfortunately upon checking in the room was not at all what was advertised. The loft rooms look as if the living and bedroom space were all in one however the bed is upstairs in an open style loft. This would have been great for us because I could have relaxed on the bed (5mo pregnant!) whilst my husband watched tv and we could still talk etc. upon check in, we were allocated a room (510) which were 2 completely seperate floors with small awkward stairs between the two. This difference completely changes the dynamic of the space. Additionally - the loft rooms look bright with natural light, the room we had was extremely dark and looked out into a wall. I wonder if this was even a loft room because there wasn’t really anything similar about the spaces. A loft and a seperate floor are not the same thing? Unfortunately the hotel was fully booked so we could not be moved - and after finding make up stains on the unused (by us) hand towel, the bath being small and grotty, The couch being so sunken your legs hit the actual structural part of the couch making it too uncomfortable to sit on, and the whole place having a dark/dirty feel to it, we requested that we be able to cancel the booking with no penalty. At first we were told we could leave but wouldn’t be refunded, luckily we pointed out we hadn’t paid! Then it was said that’s fine, in that case we will keep your $100 deposit, luckily, no one had ever taken that from us either - so we were allowed to leave without charge. All in all - I would like to thank the staff. the gentleman we dealt with was only in his 2nd week and he was SO helpful and I really do appreciate the service he provided. We would have loved to stay, but at 5 months pregnant planning to spend the night in the room while my husband attends a show - I just did not feel at all like I would enjoy the time in the room. Had we both been going out, I would have been less bothered - but we shouldn’t have to feel like not spending time in the hotel is the only thing that makes it okay! We are now sitting in a hotel 500 metres away, same price, considerably cleaner and much more comfortable!! Will definitely remember to check trip advisor before booking next time because I can see similar reviews. Again, thank you to the staff we spoke to - they were a great reflection on the mantra brand which I have stayed at many times across many different locations and normally love and enjoy :)

YTI Garden Hotel
4/5129 Reviews
Melbourne Central Business District
I had my own kitchen with its cutlery (dishes, forks, knives, cups...). Also there was a microwave in the laundry room which was very useful when I wanted to heat my takeaway food. I loved that in the bathroom next t the sink there were hand wash and face lotion and in the shower there were shampoos, conditioners, body wash, which were provided abundantly. It was also for a very affordable price, less than $80/a night. It was also clean. Not to mention that I was not pressured to leave by the check out team and I didn't get a call reminding me to leave but the staff were very friendly and polite and waited until I left a couple of minutes after the checkout time. A really pleasant stay!

Generally, the hotel room was clean except the cups were not washed and kept. The location was great as it is very near to Melbourne Central Station and walking distance to Queen Victoria Market and State Library. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Avani Melbourne Central Residences
4.2/5141 Reviews
Melbourne Central Business District
Nice, clean, comfortable place to stay with great views........especially good location for Queen Vic Market, and easy to get in and out of the downtown if driving. Only two small complains: The room had a small nespresso machine: 2 people staying for 2 nights = only 2 coffee capsules! Not quite enough. I'm sure if we had asked at reception they would have sent a couple more, but for such a small thing, you shouldnt need to ask ! The other thing is the two way light switching is quite strange. Very difficult to work out how it worked and simply turn on the light in the room you are walking into. As I said....minor grumbles, and will definately stay again. One final point.....when we checked out we enquired about the possibility and rate for a long stay (about a month or so) later in the year. The receptionist said she would email me the information. Several weeks later, and I still havnt heard anything!

Imagine Lighthouse
4.1/591 Reviews
Melbourne Central Business District
I recently stayed at Imagine Lighthouse in Melbourne and was blown away by the modern, stylish apartments and excellent location. The view from my Room at floor 61 was stunning and mesmerizing, I could see the entire city. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, with all the amenities like a Super Large Pool and well equipped GYM I needed for a comfortable stay. The staff were very friendly. My special Thanks to Mr. KIT on reception for being a great Host and a Friend and providing great recommendations for local attractions and restaurants. Overall, I highly recommend Imagine Lighthouse for anyone visiting Melbourne.
Platinum City Serviced Apartments
3.8/570 Reviews
Melbourne Central Business District
I booked these apartments on a recent visit to Melbourne and wanted to spend a few days in the city. Location is excellent. Very close to flagstaff station and most places were within walking distance. Staff were very helpful when I needed to leave my bag as I arrived a bit early and needed a later check out. Their checkout time is 10 am so not the most helpful. I had an apartment on a higher floor with 2 bedrooms. They were clean and comfortable. There was a fabulous city view from one of the bedrooms. Bathroom was small but functional. I was comfortable inside the apartment. On the flip side, there were just 2 elevators servicing the entire complex. Most of the time one was either not working or stuck on the basement floor. So you end up spending quite a long time waiting for an elevator. Somehow the elevators and common area did not give a good vibe. It felt clean and unkept. On the first night I kept hearing sounds. I thought someone has broken into the apartment and went out of the room a few times. Following morning I figured it was from the apartment above me. But it meant I hardly slept. It was the same tue second night too but I just ignored the sounds.
