"Friendly helpful staff. "

"Thanks to Elvie, the friendly assistant manager, I had a wonderful stay. She helped me a lot with the little things, like laundry detergent. With its friendly staff and great value for money, this hotel should definitely be a top priority when visiting Melbourne. The only thing that could be improved is the Wi-Fi speed (for example, by setting up a password so only guests can use it). 멜버른 city에서 가성비 있게 머물 수 있습니다. 취사시설도 있어서 저녁 요리도 해먹을 수 있었어요. 다만 와이파이 속도가 좀 느린 점은 미리 알고 오시는 걸 추천드립니다. 위치든 시설이든 좋은 아파트먼트 호텔입니다."

1 Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived at 1 Hotel Melbourne in a state — and left as devoted fans. We had driven down from Sydney to collect our new Labrador puppy, Titus, and were on our way home when the car failed on the Hume Highway. What followed was five hours stranded roadside (the state of that road is a national disgrace in its own right), a long wait for a tow, and then another hour and a half back into Melbourne. By the time we pulled up at the hotel we were frazzled, filthy, and travelling with an eight-week-old puppy. Very few hotels will take a dog at all, let alone at short notice, let alone a puppy. 1 Hotel Melbourne didn't merely permit him — they embraced him. Bedding appeared. Toys appeared. Titus was greeted like an honoured guest by every single person we passed. They arranged charging for the car without our even having to ask twice, and when they understood what sort of day we'd had, a complimentary glass of wine arrived in the room. It was the kind of gesture that says someone was actually listening. What struck us most was that the excellence was not confined to one heroic individual — it ran right through the building. The valet, the concierge, the front desk, room service: every single team member was warm, unflappable and genuinely kind. For a new establishment, that consistency is remarkable. Most hotels take years to find that rhythm, if they ever do. Our daughter in the States had told us 1 Hotels was a wonderful group. She was right, and now we understand why."
