Top SEA LIFE Melbourne Hotel Reviews

Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Atlantis was close to everything and easy to access. The room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was selective but fabulous. Staff were amazingly helpful and happy. Would stay again"

Pegasus Apart'Hotel

8/10 Good

"Main lobby was really hot. Checkin staff were obsessed with checking I owed my credit cards and wouldn't let me tap??"

Great Southern Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"A short walk from Southern Cross station so is very convenient when travelling by train or plane.Staff were pleasent. Room was quiet and had everything needed for short stay. Restaurant available for dinner and breakfast..Only critisism was room was located on level 1 which required negotiating a number of stairs to get to/from it. Difficult with large suitcase and if any mobility issues. Will request room on elevator level in future"

Meriton Suites Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"If Melbourne is looking for ambassadors to give a good impression of their city they should start here. The amazing staff at the lobby were just the beginning. We loved our room, we loved the location, we loved the quick response when we asked for something. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and I will definitely stay again when I have the opportunity."

Hannah St Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect spot, will be back!"

Aura on Flinders Serviced Apartments

8/10 Good

"Comfy bed, good shower. Handy location. Wireless phone chargers by the bed are a bonus."

Holiday Inn Melbourne Bourke Street Mall by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great property. Hotel felt like it was brand new. Rooms really modern, spacious and extremely clean."

The Langham, Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Could not recommend enough!"

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."
