Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Lovely hotel and lovely room. Very clean and comfortable. I had issues connecting to the WiFi, which I'm sure the staff could help with if I contacted them, but I didn't bother on this occasion. The breakfast offering, for what it is, is very expensive, comprising of about 5 or 6 small bain maries with 2 different food items inside, some breakfast pastries, a small fridge with some fruits, and fresh juices / coffee machine. A nice touch was being able to request fresh made omelets, poached eggs etc., however for the range of food, it's very pricey compared to other hotel offerings. It did taste great however! I was offered a 20% discount voucher for the downstairs restaurant, which was a nice touch. The food was lovely, and was a small manageable menu. Slightly pricey, but the 20% discount made me feel like I could justify it. The bedroom, though lovely, felt very stuffy despite the AC being on as cold as can go and on high fan. In addition, the curtains weren't as blackout as I'd like, as light still got in the room. The AC unit also had a bright light on it. Additionally, the windows glass is very sound proof. I was awoken very early by very loud roadworks or construction downstairs. All in all, a pleasant stay bar a few small annoyances!

Excellent location, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go in the city. If walking isn't your thing, the tram is less than 1 block away. The room was comfortable and amazingly quiet. We couldn't hear anything happening in the city. Friendly staff members just added to the experience.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
One star — fine hotel, but budget for the parking trap The room was fine: clean, comfortable, nothing wrong with it. On its own that's three stars. What I can't overlook is the parking. The hotel has no car park. It sends you to the commercial one attached to the building, where you take a ticket and validate it at reception. The rate is $49 per 24 hours — steep, but disclosed. What isn't disclosed is that the car park has a single exit and no in-and-out: every time you drive out, your ticket closes and a new one starts. I went out once during the day and came back, and was charged $100 for a single day on what I'd been told was a $49 rate. Nobody mentioned this when handing over the validation. I raised it at the desk and was told the car park is a separate business and there was nothing they could do. Technically true, but the hotel sends every guest there, hands over the ticket, and stamps the validation. If you build parking into the guest experience, you own the part where guests get caught out by it. That's what turns a mildly overpriced hotel into one I'd avoid. The room rate is already above what the property justifies; add parking that can quietly double on a normal day, and a front desk that shrugs when it does, and the value is gone. Without a car you'll have an unremarkable, adequate stay. If you're driving, park once and don't touch it until checkout — or book somewhere that doesn't need a strategy.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Fake Luxury: 5-Star Pricing for 3-Star Quality. I booked Lanson Place Parliament Gardens for my sister’s birthday trip. This hotel heavily markets itself as a 5-star luxury property, but the quality, service, and amenities are strictly 3-star level. 1. Zero Bathroom Privacy: We booked a Two Queen room but swapped because the bathroom had see-through glass walls—absurd for friends/family. We paid to upgrade to a One-Bedroom King, but the bathroom had a full-length window facing an office building. The curtain had a massive gap; we could see pictures on the workers' desks. Had it not been Saturday, they would have seen us using the toilet and shower. 2. Broken Promises & Heating: Management guaranteed a room on a higher floor would clear the offices. False. The curtain gap was larger, and we had to hang bathrobes over the window. That night, the heating broke. Melbourne dropped to 7°C. At 6:30 AM Monday, we woke up freezing and exhausted to deafening construction noise and a view of arriving office workers. 3. Financial Loss & Amenities: Expedia requested a cancellation, but Lanson refused a refund. We left at a loss and filed a credit card dispute. Beyond the service failures, the property is dingy and poorly maintained. The continental breakfast is low-quality, featuring self-serve vending machine coffee and minimal food choices.Verdict: Unless you need to be next to the hospital, avoid this place. Pay a little extra for The Ritz-Carlton instead—the quality is incomparable.

Nice location and traditional setup. Not quite five star though in terms of staff skill/knowledge and the breakfast is very basic. The rooms are nice but lack ventilation and subject to drain smell. No windows to open. The pool is very small and for 5 star would expect also a jacuzzi, steam and sauna, though gym is of good quality!

Our stay was enjoyable with some caveats. Great location close to the CBD and trams, clean and tidy rooms. It didn’t feel like a 5 star experience unfortunately. The rooms are large, clean and stylish looking but functionally didn’t make for the most comfortable stay (some amenities were empty and room cleans were late on some days). Overall the stay was positive however, if you’re expecting a true 5 star stay I’d consider elsewhere.

Adoramos o hotel Super bem localizado, podendo fazer os principais pontos de Melbourne caminhando. Tem um restaurante/bar muito bonito e agradável, com ótima comida. Os funcionários foram muito gentis e solícitos. O quarto era ótimo. O arquiteto foi muito inteligente conseguindo deixar um espaço não tão grande extremamente funcional. Com espaços para uma sala, cozinha, quarto e banheiro. O quarto tem todo o necessário e mais um pouco. Máquina de lavar e secar, fogão, frigobar, aquecedor, cafeteira, chaleira elétrica… A vista da cidade é linda e a cama muito confortável. Ótimo isolamento acústico também. Se voltar a Melbourne, certamente me hospedarei novamente. Ótimo custo-benefício.

We were very impressed with this hotel. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful on our arrival. Our room was very well appointed, clean, spacious and had everything we needed for our overnight stay. This hotel is just a 6 to 10 minute walk to St. Vincent‘s Hospital which was our reason for booking, and we were extremely happy with our choice. We would most definitely stay again
