Top Chinatown Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Little Collins by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Received a room upgrade and free breakfast, one block from Southern Cross, very convenient for train travel."

Hotel Grand Chancellor Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and quite spacious. Love that we could open windows and had a little balcony. Room temp control was a bit temperamental but eventually managed to turn aircon off. Breakfast was great with lots of hot/cold options and a decent coffee machine. Evacuation added some excitement to the stay late at night. Had to wait outside while fireys investigated - seems it was a wiring issue."

Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Location is brilliant - just across the road from the Southern Cross Station where Skybus provides express passage to/from the airport. Also lots of food options, convenience stores and shopping nearby. Checking in/out was a breeze and the staff (including housekeeping) always helpful. We are grateful for a small grace period given to check out a wee bit later. Facilities - we didn’t use but a more than adequate gym and a decent swimming pool. Room was quiet, clean, spacious and comfortable. Basic amenities were there together with a good refrigerator, great smart TV and in-room safe. My only gripe was the bit of morning light seeping in from the sides of the roller blinds. But that’s me - I tend to wake up late. Thanks, Atlantis!"
