Staff were so friendly and helpful. I left my bag in an Uber on the way from the airport. They kindly went to great lengths helped me and checked CCTV footage. Plus they made a special effort for my son’s birthday with a lovely card balloons and chocolates ! The hotel was lovely , great pool , very clean and overall a great experience!

First time staying at Dorsett Melbourne. Such an amazingly pleasant experience. We came here for our anniversary and brought our 9 month old with us. We had asked for a baby cot for the duration of our stay and it was already set up when we arrived. Weve tried several hotels in the city including Crown Metropol, and this has to be the best one for us. Cl Convenient location. Spencer street dfo within walkable distance, parked up there and walked over. 8 levels so jumping on a lift wasnt a long wait. Pools were super clean as well as the Gym. Staff are lovely and very attentive. We'll be back again!

After reading a lot of reviews I decided to stay here for a one-night staycation with my 5 year old daughter. Overall i would say it was okay. Things worth noting that weren't great: The pool area was cold and unclean. I literally had to find a member of staff and tell them that the steam room was disgusting. The pool itself was great and looked stunningly blue. There were no robes in the room. The breakfast was not great and the set-up didn't help. The toast station, water and condiments was in one corner and there was literally a huddle and queue to access. Teaspoons and glasses were empty and barista coffee isn't included in the buffet price. Things that were good: Friendly staff, lovely room, comfy bed, price.

Becoming a new favourite

Newly reburbished, stylish and modern. Tastefully fitted and decorated room and bathrooms and throughout the hotel. Comfortable bed, quality sleep although wish pillows were more firm. Free bottle of sparkling included with our booking as a Hotels.com VIP member, but it wasnt waiting for us when we arrived in our room so we did have to ask front desk to send it up. In room dining was decent and very quick. We ordered ribs and chips, with a side of baby veggies. Self service Club lounge was handy for a quick snack / drink. I did not get to use the pool, gym, sauna or spa this trip but my husband who has stayed before tells me the facilities are very good. This hotel offers excellent value for money, considering the good city location with quality service and facilities, highly recommended. Will return as we travel regularly to Melbourne for business.
