Top St. Kilda East Hotel Reviews

Hannah St Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay and facilities. We’ll be back!"

Rydges Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in an executive King room for 3 nights. The room was clean, spacious quiet with excellent amenities including a kitchenette. Location was great, walking distance to the CBD and close to tram stations, theatre, restaurants. The breakfast buffet was very good. We would stay here again when next in Melbourne."

The Langham, Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Great view, classic charm, and excellent service! I had a lovely and relaxing stay. The room featured a deep bathtub, crisp clean linens, blackout curtains, and a pleasant river view. Staff service was excellent—the receptionist thoroughly followed up on my booking’s F&B credit, and I was grateful for early check-in and a 1:00 PM late check-out. The breakfast buffet was solid, especially the fresh omelets and miso soup. The wellness facilities were a highlight: the jacuzzi had a great view with nice water jets, and there were complimentary teas and hydration stations in the pool/sauna area. Note that the pool has a glass roof, so visiting in the early morning or late afternoon is ideal to avoid direct sunlight. The property shows its age slightly, but the public spaces have a wonderful, timeless classic style. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway!"
