Good match for:

  • Business Travelers: On-site conference rooms, coworking spaces and 24h front desk support busy schedules.
  • Fitness Enthusiasts: Free 24-hour gym and heated outdoor pool keep you active any time.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Budget Travelers: Nightly rates are higher and many amenities carry extra fees.
  • Beach Seekers: Urban Southbank location is more riverfront than beach access.

Bathroom only had very few amenities. Staff at Otto restaurant was horrible. They ask ...

Perfect hotel if you are visiting the exhibition center. And also all the restaurants and casinos are in walking distance. The rooms are modern and very comfortable. Tej service is very friendly and helpful. Even when I arrived early in the morning they did everything that I got a room especially after a 26 hours flight very appreciated - thank you again very much. Will come again.

Loved our stay, we had a king riverside view. The bed was comfy the pillows amazing, perfect for a couple. I have stayed many hotels and this room was by far the cleanest I have ever stayed in. The staff really friendly, and was the perfect location, tram out the front all food you can think of a 5 minute walk away. It was our first time in Melbourne this made it just perfect.
