Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited on-site dining — There's a snack bar but no full restaurant or room service, so you'll head out to Acland Street's cafés and eateries for most meals.
- Facilities rating below average — Guest scores for facilities are the lowest category at 7.2, suggesting basics are covered but without many extras like a pool or gym.
- Check-in ends at 21:30 — If you're arriving later than 9:30pm, you'll need to make arrangements for a late check-in.
- No pets allowed — The property is pet-free, so you'll need to make other arrangements for travelling with animals.

7.9Verified guest“The room was neat and airy with climate control and coffee. The setting was quite marvellous, within easy reach of a renovated theatre.”
7.9Verified guest“It is reasonably priced, fairly clean, and the staff are very welcoming.”
7.9Verified guest“The room was a nice size, the king bed very comfortable, nicely fitted out, and very clean. Everything worked well, with a big double-glazed window looking around St Kilda. Free parking, very central for eateries, the Palais Theatre, the beach, and public transport. Staff were friendly and helpful, and we loved not having a mini bar unless requested. Our friends' non-deluxe room was just as nice and had a lounge suite.”
7.9Verified guest“The staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful, but not intrusive. The location was ideal for the concert we were attending, and also perfectly located for St Kilda shops and the seafront. The room's presentation was also excellent.”
7.9Verified guest“I appreciated the prime location, just a short walk from the beach and surrounded by vibrant local eateries. The bed was very comfortable, the shower pressure fantastic, and communication before my stay was prompt and informative.”
7.9Verified guest“Lovely room and nice facilities. Close to the St Kilda shopping precinct, the beach, and markets. Trams run right outside the door. Any problems were sorted quickly.”
