Hotels near DFO South Wharf, Melbourne

Can make simple meals, the room is clean and there is a washing machine

OK it has not good reviews and looks pretty shabby outside. But this place was very pleasant to stay at. $90 for a night and the bed was comfy, very quiet, big spacy room (no 5), very clean, great modern look with appliances, situated in good location. Service on check in was very friendly. Plenty of secure parking. Definitely stay again. Only negative was the water pressure was so slow. That's all

I just checked in today and it’s good for the price, the hotel receptionist Sarah was lovely and kept me well informed. I’m staying for 3 days and everything seems to be in shape. I read a review detailing hotel guest with drug problems, it’s a MOTEL you are going to get good and bad and everything in between in any of these places. There’s drug addicts at the five seasons difference is that they can afford it. Lol

Very budget accommodation. My room was on the 5th floor and had a good comfortable bed. There was an old wardrobe with only 4 coat hangers. I was staying for 7 nights so really coathangers are very cheap so a few more shouldn’t hurt the bottom line. There was a sink, kettle and tea & coffee supplied. There was also a small bar fridge which unfortunately completely froze my orange juice and milk. Asked reception to do something but nothing happened. Bathroom was clean and shower was good. Room was not serviced at all for the full week. Although 2nd top floor quite a lot of noise from establishments in the nearby lane at times, very very late including a few huge arguments. No drawers provided but a few shelves for clothes etc and a small table. Overall quite basic and only suitable if you are only going to sleep and clean up there but offset somewhat by the cheap rate. Probably look for a little better next time.

Standard motel. Overall good, clean and spacious. There is no breakfast service and no one comes to work until ten in the morning. The room is near the road (not the highway), so it's a bit noisy. The room has a window, but it doesn't seem to open.

Selina Central has a great location and in the central area. So close to the Australian Open Courts and walkable to many areas, in fact it’s right in front of the station. All the staff were absolutely friendly, helpful and accommodating. The beds has curtain and I’d say the cleanliness is great. Maybe just the ventilation in the room could be better, perhaps more fans or air condition.

It is equipped with a stove, a refrigerator, a washing machine, a bowl and a pot. It is very convenient. I bought six boxes of eggs in a small supermarket and burned them myself. The hotel has no breakfast to eat on the street, in the supermarket.

It's convenient to drive by car. Follow the white road, Maroon*** HWY, and turn left to Victoria RD. Then turn left at Melba HWY and you will be left. It's perfect to avoid the high-speed route for navigation. Hotel facilities feel old, especially the pool is a bit disappointing! The hotel provides a big bed room according to my request! The welcome letters are all in Chinese :) The hotel has a free 3 boxes of instant noodles (although we have not eaten) and three bottles of Italian mineral water! Surprisingly, the four small pieces of chocolate are delicious! All breakfast, lunch and dinner are served at the hotel, full western food! Breakfast is included in the room rate, lunch and dinner for two big ones for nearly $300! The nearest winery is just a 2 minute walk from the hotel. After the hotel reception has received the voucher, you can go there for free 5 kinds of wine! The tasting staff just happened to be a little girl from Shanghai. I was very kind. I bought 6 bottles of wine (can pay Alipay or WeChat). The next day I took a baby to go to the Wildlife Nature Reserve, which is 18 minutes drive from the hotel. !

The hotel itself is a very tall building, and the rooms are located on very high floors. The windows overlook the cityscape, which is very sunny! The room design is stylish, with a touch of French style! The room is quite spacious, especially the executive chair in the room, which is very comfortable! The only drawback is that there is not enough countertop to put items in the bathroom! Special praise for the front desk staff. When I checked in, they were very friendly and sincere. They took the trouble to solve my problems and efficiently!

The only good thing about this place is location: it is within the free tram zone and right next to the Victoria market (there's a great Indonesian restaurant nearby). The rest is full of problems: 1. They don't respond to emails. If they do, they don't answer the questions properly. I had to chase them up quite a few times. 2. The rooms are rather worn out. The arm chair looked too dirty and old that I could not bring myself to put my clean clothes on it. Shower doors are poorly designed - the whole bathroom gets flooded. The holder for the shower head can't be fixed - and difficult to reach. 3. The rooms are noisy (the ones facing the main street). 4. Most importantly however - when I thought I lost my door key (the electronic one) I went to the reception and asked them to cancel it and reissue me a new one. I told the receptionist that the electronic key had a sleeve with the name of the hotel and the my room number so if he did not cancel it, the key could be used to locate and access my room very easily. He then told me he had cancelled my old key and reissued me a new one. I was not convinced the electronic key code for the room had been reset but went to my room in the hope that he was right. I found my original key the next morning and of course it was working. So he had lied to me. If I had lost my key, someone could easily have come in to my room and steal my things or even worse come in when I was there. The key sleeve had all the info - hotel name and room number. He put my life and goods at risk. NEVER STAYING HERE AGAIN!!! Terrible reception staff. Their front desk staff are either poorly trained or inexperienced - this is surely a major management issue. I have work visits planned for Melbourne. Will not be returning to this badly run hotel.
