Top Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre Hotel Reviews

Hannah St Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"The only thing we didn’t like was the front of the hotel was not very clear so finding the main entrance wasn’t easy but the hotel itself was lovely ."

The Victoria Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing experience very quiet had amazing sleep"

Great Southern Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Handy location a short walk from Sky Bus and Southern Cross station. Comfy room and warm shower. Helpful to be able to leave bag before check in and after check out. Big breakfast was very good value. Unfortunately other guests aren’t always considerate about being quiet in the hallways and sometimes it is also possible to hear water running from other rooms when guests flush the toilet or use the shower but otherwise it was quiet for a central location."

Clarion Suites Gateway

10/10 Excellent

"Nam at the front desk was great. Always a “hello” and happy to help! Pool was great! Room with view was fabulous. Comfy bed. Good shower. Great location. Couldn’t ask for more!"

Aura on Flinders Serviced Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was great, comfy bed, well equipped and comfortable. It was a little shabby, a few areas that needed attention, but the view from the balcony more than made up for it."

Meriton Suites Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff and a very clean room, would definitely book here again."

Dorsett Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Yeah, it was nice. Real nice. Breakfast was a real letdown though. They have a drink machine in the arcade area next to the foyer that is amazing, from coffees, to energy drinks, dessert frappes and bubble tea! I’d come back just for that alone! I’d just have breakfast elsewhere. Great staff too. Very helpful, kind and courteous- 10x ⭐️’s for the staff!"

Grand Hyatt Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Very clean room"

Novotel Melbourne South Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience, am planning to go again - highly recommend to others"
