Top Essendon Hotel Reviews

Ibis Styles Melbourne Airport

8/10 Good

"Arrive in late from an international long hall flight. Phoned the hotel and they came and picked us up. We normally walk but after a long hall the pick-up service was great. Staff friendly and room clean and comfortable. We will stay again."

Veriu Queen Victoria Market

8/10 Good

"The property is ideal for visiting Melbourne as a solo traveller and ideal for longer stays. Room is spacious and cleaned regularly. Mini kitchen is adequate for making breakfast and small meals. Staff are very kind and polite. Bicycles can be stored in the luggage room if you are cyclist. Be advised that some of the rooms are above a bar (not part of hotel) which is noisy until around 10pm. May be a problem for people who are light sleepers. Recommend ask for a room away from the bar or on higher floors to reduce street noise."

Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean and comfortable, but unfortunately, for some inexplicable reason, there was a problem with the water in the bathroom. I was unable to shower or even flush the toilet and spoke to reception about the problem. They were very apologetic and offered me the use of another room. They also offered me a free breakfast. I was appreciative of their efforts, but asked to speak to a manager when they were available. I received a call later in the morning and discussed the matter with the manager. She offered her sincere apologies and assured me that I would be looked after when I next visited the hotel. I cannot fault the manner with which this unfortunate matter was handled, and would definitely recommend the hotel for those travelling and in need of the convenience of public transport and/or passage to the airport."

Vibe Hotel Melbourne Docklands

10/10 Excellent

"The reception staff at check in and departure were fantastic. The young lady who looked after our check out was able to offer us a discount after I listed off the issues with the room. 1. No skirt around the bed base 2. TV did not operate properly it would switch off after a few minutes. Apparently a known issue. 3. Room was not serviced even though extra towels and pillows were delivered. Apparently you need to put out a swing tag to have the room serviced. 4. The pillows initially supplied had zero support whereas the extra ones supplied were fantastic supportive pillows. 5. Getting a drink at the bar was nearly impossible as staff kept disappearing out the back for 15-20 minutes at a time. 6. There was a pile of sawdust at the bottom of the bathroom door from where it rubbed. 7. The initial towels supplied were almost threadbare whereas the extra towels supplied when requested were fantastic fluffy towels. 8. The 2 prints on the walls were hung on an angle that was visible without using a level. Other than that the location is fantastic and if these few things were taken care of we’d stay there again."

ibis Melbourne Central

8/10 Good

"Love the water refill station, keeps me hydrated while walking around the CBD. Shopping mall is close. About a 10 min walk depending how fast you walk haha. Loved the breakfast Buffett, love my OJ. Vegetarian and vegan options. I wish there were strawberries for breakfast. All my 5 mornings didn’t have it available, something minor but I would’ve loved breakfast even more. I had a vegan Mediterranean pasta for dinner. Delicious. I had a 5 other friends that went to the hotel and we were discussing about the beds. Clean, but the beds were harder than I’m used to. People who prefer softer beds would not be a fan of these beds. Staff made check in easy, I landed around 11pm and head to the hotel right before midnight. There was one worker by himself helping a couple of guests. I was still in line and a 2nd worker came through and helped me. I appreciate that. Thank you for having me at your hotel. This was my 1st time in AUS and I’m already wanting to come back. See you guys next year! -Royce"
