Quest Flemington Central Overview
First Impressions
Walking into Quest Flemington Central, you immediately get that feeling of “oh, this is actually really nice.” It’s one of those four-star places that doesn’t try too hard but gets everything right — the lobby has this clean, modern vibe without being sterile, and the staff genuinely seem happy to see you. I mean, you can tell when hotel staff are just going through the motions, but here they actually remember your name after checking in.
Perfect Flemington Spot
The location on Ascot Vale Road is honestly brilliant if you know Melbourne at all. You’re right in Flemington, which puts you walking distance from the famous racecourse (yes, that Flemington where the Melbourne Cup happens), but more importantly for most travelers, you’re incredibly well-connected to the city center. The trams run frequently, and I love that you can easily explore both the inner city and some of Melbourne’s cooler northern suburbs from here. Couples especially seem to get this — they consistently rate the location around 9 out of 10, and I totally understand why.
The Apartment Experience
What really sets Quest apart is that you’re not getting a cramped hotel room — you’re getting a proper serviced apartment with space to actually live a bit. The kitchen setup is fantastic, especially if you’re staying more than a couple nights or traveling with family. You know what I really appreciated? Having a proper dining table where you can spread out your laptop or enjoy takeaway from one of the local spots. The apartments feel like someone’s stylish city pad, not a corporate hotel room with beige everything.
Food and Practical Stuff
Breakfast here covers all the bases — they do continental, full English, American style, and buffet options, so whether you want just coffee and pastries or a proper cooked breakfast, you’re sorted. The restaurant area has this relaxed atmosphere where you can actually take your time in the morning. And here’s something that’ll save you headaches in Melbourne — they have parking on site. Trust me, if you’re driving in this city, that’s worth its weight in gold. No circling blocks looking for a spot or feeding meters every two hours.
Why Guests Love It
Quest Flemington Central works because it strikes this perfect balance between hotel service and apartment independence. You get housekeeping and concierge help when you need it, but you also have the freedom to cook your own meals or just sprawl out in a living room after a long day exploring Melbourne. The fact that recent guests consistently rate it 8.4 overall tells you everything — it’s not trying to be the flashiest place in town, but it delivers exactly what most travelers actually want: comfort, space, and a location that makes sense.

Anita from Australia (7/10)
The apartment looked lovely, but the air conditioning was very noisy and no cooling in the bedrooms.
The pillows were very uncomfortable and the floor in the living space had obviously had some sort of leak.
It basically needed some maintenance.Linda from United Kingdom (8/10)
Good location and price, able to provide parking on site for a reasonable cost. Great deep comfy mattress.
