Top Scienceworks and Melbourne Planetarium Hotel Reviews

The Victoria Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Staff best I have come across in all the hotels I have visited at"

Meriton Suites Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"US travelers, Meriton Suites Melbourne far exceeded my expectations. As a lifetime platform elite member of Marriott, Meriton suite provides superb rooms with full kitchen and laundry units at 1/2 the price of a good Marriott hotel room. It is an apartment hotel, so room cleaning is every 4 th day."

Liberty One

8/10 Good

"Apartment was fit for purpose and all in all a reasonable price. A few critiques would be that the bedroom was stuffy without the door open which also let light into the room and having to take our rubbish to the to the bin drop is fine, but the bin drop room was putrid smelling and not a pleasant way to end our 1 night stay."

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Little Collins by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"It was hard to find in the beginning because the signage was not clearly visible. It was also weird that you need to go up to 2nd level for the reception. Staff were a bit disappointing because they are not as responsive but I guess, they are just doing their job. The room was clean, equipped though a bit small. The food could be better with more selections but for the price, it’s ok. Will I recommend? Definitely. My friend recommended the place to me so I will. A plus, it was close to a Filipino restaurant where we dined some much needed comfort food! Much Mahalo!"
