Top Preston Hotel Reviews

View Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"We’ve stayed at View Melbourne a couple of times now. The room sizes are great and the location is great for ducking into the city or heading Prahran/South Yarra way. Have always found the staff friendly, useful, and helpful. Great spot for young families, like us, too."
