Location & Neighborhood

You’re basically in the heart of everything that matters, with the MCG practically next door and the city center just a quick tram ride away. I mean, couples are rating the location 9.2 out of 10, which tells you something. The Jolimont area has this perfect balance where you’re close to all the action but not drowning in tourist crowds every time you step outside.

The Room Experience

The room setup here is what I’d call “smart comfortable” — they’ve clearly thought about what travelers actually need.

The beds are solid, the bathrooms are modern without being sterile, and there’s enough storage that you’re not living out of your suitcase the entire time. Actually, the whole place feels more like a well-designed apartment than a typical hotel room.

Breakfast & Dining

They’ve got the usual suspects covered, but also some local touches that make it feel distinctly Melbourne. The restaurant area gets good morning light, and honestly, starting your day there sets a pretty nice tone. Plus, with parking available on-site, you don’t have to stress about where to leave your car while you’re enjoying your meal.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is how it manages to feel both professional and relaxed at the same time. The staff seem to actually know the area — they’ll give you real recommendations, not just the standard tourist script. And that location score of 9.2?
