The Victoria Hotel Melbourne
5/5 Excellent
Excellent location and clean
"Excellent location and clean. Good restaurant for dinner and breakfast buffet is a highlight. Communication from staff to customers can still be improved about whether breakfast is included in the room price. Would be even better if the room had a bath tub. Sauna is good. "

"Although the room was small it had everything you needed. Pull the curtains back to get more of a view, otherwise it's a bit dark. The staff were very helpful and friendly. And the hotel was in a great location. It was quiet at night too. I would recommend it and will probably stay there again."
