墨爾本大酒店(Grand Hotel Melbourne)

Great location, close to Southern Cross Station and tram lines. Short walk to DFO for shopping and the Emporium. Great service at the hotel

Beautiful old Victoria Rail building with high ceilings spacious hallways and good sized rooms. The rooms are double glazed to reduce the noise from the nearby trains but they still audible - The rumble of the trains did not bother me but may do for others.

The Grand is in a top location. Its a 5 minute walk to Southern Cross station and about the same to the ****** and adjacent restaurants. Its also 5 minute to several tram stops which run quite frequently. The foyer of The Grand is a bit drab but you can't fault the friendly service or the rooms. I would stay there again.

Service was exceptional (thanks Denis), room was comfortable and was equipped with everything you would want. Surprisingly quiet while still overlooking the railway tracks. Access to Foxtel with a separate tv in the bedroom. Our room was only meant to be serviced once during our 5 night stay, but was made-up on a second occasion. The spa & sauna was a really nice addition (didn’t try the pool, but was still lovely & warm), while the shower did have some mould on the silicon around the tiles. Had a great stay and would definitely stay again.

The girl at reception was rude and very unhelpful. I would not come there again because of her and I have already told other people not to stay there because she was just plain rude. Parking is expensive and NOT free....brochures / websites etc say parking is available but do not say you have to pay for it. You have to cross a busy road and go down another road to get breakfast - its just stupid. Building itself is beautiful - room which we stayed though was really disappointing and not worth the money paid for it. The building is gorgeous from the outside but that is the only thing this hotel has going for it. It is expensive for the nothing they provide. And the reception girl on the weekend we stayed was just plain rude.

Had a room with the upstairs bedroom and bathroom. Stairway was steep and difficult for older people, particularly if lugging suitcases up and down was involved. Great location near the city and Southern Cross station. It is an older style hotel, with a lot of interesting and quirky features like massive hallways and super high ceilings. We only had 1 night, but it was good.
