A quiet yet convenient location in St Kilda...
Guests love the hotel's location, noting it is on a quiet street yet very close to Acland St, which offers many restaurants and cafes. It is also very convenient to Luna Park, the Palais Theatre, and, of course, the beach. Travellers also appreciate the nearby tram stop, which offers a speedy trip into Melbourne CBD.
positive:
Room for the whole family...
Guests widely describe the rooms as clean, comfortable, and nicely presented. Families in town for a vacation particularly appreciate the full kitchens, noting that the one-bedroom apartments come equipped with a Nespresso machine, as well as the laundry machines. Many offer a small balcony with a pleasant view.

A warm welcome to the neighbourhood...
The front desk staff have received many glowing reviews for their friendly and helpful service; new visitors often comment that they are pleased to explain the tram system and offer their knowledge of the area's attractions.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Pricey extras...
Drivers generally dislike the additional fee for parking, and some find the garage a bit "tight" for larger vehicles. Other travellers are annoyed by the daily limit on complimentary Wi-Fi, which does not stretch very far between multiple devices.
negative:
Tossing and turning...
Though many guests enjoy a good night's sleep, others find the beds too soft and springy. Guests in rooms nearest the housekeeping closet have been woken early by the sound of the team starting work.
negative:
Running hot and cold...
A few guests have reported difficulty adjusting or maintaining the water temperature in the showers, which have been described as a bit small.
