My original room had an old bed that played havoc with my back. At 7:00am the following morning I told the concierge and he was going to get the staff to make the bed firmer. Five hours later nothing had been done and his solution was to put doonas on the mattress to firm it up. I was most distressed, exhausted from moving out of my apartment and needed to taken strong painkillers and rest. Eventually I was put into a room where the concierge asked me to try the mattress as it was ‘a new one’. It was good. This room was not an upgrade but a downgrade to a single room from my two rooms. It was in better condition than the more expensive one. The bathroom/s need upgrading and hotel products need to be on hand. The second room had better shower products than the more expensive one. One tissue left in the box with no spare in the room or bathroom. No jug to put water in the fridge. The dining facilities were excellent both in food and staff. I have not paid the bill as I’m waiting for a proper adjustment not a one of $68.69 credit. There are two nights that I stayed in the cheaper room with no adjustment. Overall, it has left a sour taste and I don’t believe I will stay there again.

We stayed last year, and chose to go back this year as it was near to family. We paid over a $1000 for 5 nights. When we arrived we checked in and went to our allocated room. There was dirt on a light switch which looked like faeces which husband cleaned off and took a photograph. On our 2nd day I made the bed and the quilt had all stains on it. We reported this to the front desk and we where given a different room. Which we moved to and the guy assisted us with our luggage. When we got to the new room we found it was not cleaned to the standard of a 4.5 star hotel. We will definitely not be staying here again.

Good location

Good location with tram out the front for the MCG. 2 bedroom apartment was sufficent, although frypan needs an update if planning on cooking. Vent in room was covered in dust with finger prints on it. Found underwear and a towel in the washer/dryer and a false eyelash stuck on the light above vanity from the previous stay. Cleaning could be improved.

The restaurant and cafe area was great. Staff friendly and helpful. That’s where it ended. The 2 bedroom apartment was outdated and we felt we were staying in a 2 star hotel. The bedroom on the lower floor was freezing, we couldn’t heat it. Kitchen pointless. We won’t be staying here again.

We liked sitting on the balcony to have our breakfast and having views to the city. We met some friends in the lobby lounge which was a nice area. It was a bit tricky to get the water temperature right in the shower as there was a delay when you adjusted the tap. Overall nice stay and easy public transport options on doorstep.

Not bad but nothing special

I stayed at the Amora Melbourne for four nights. The experience was okay—but a few issues made it less enjoyable than expected. The room and corridors had a musty smell. My heating didn’t work properly (only blew cold air), and although a technician came, it wasn’t immediately resolved. I was offered a room change but was already halfway through my stay; I received a small space heater instead. Corridors were often blocked by housekeeping trolleys/vacuum cleaners, making access difficult (especially as I use a walking stick). The carpet in the corridors also had a number of large stains. Despite signs encouraging towel reuse, mine were replaced daily. The ceiling had dozens of small dead bugs—likely gnats or midges—clearly not a new problem. The spa bath couldn’t be used properly due to limited hot water. The breakfast buffet was basic and, I felt, overpriced; barista coffee wasn’t included, and the self-serve machine sprayed milk/chocolate everywhere. I also witnessed poor service when an well-dressed (and not young) guest asked for a serviette to clean up a floor spill—a staff member, who wasn't busy handed him a serviette instead of cleaning up the spill. IT systems seemed unreliable, even the post-stay customer survey link didn’t work. On the upside, the location is great, the room rate was fair, and Jacob behind the bar was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and professional. He was the service standout. With some improvements, this could be a much better hotel.
