City Park Hotel

When I arrived the desk was unattended but a note attached to call them. I did so and was immediately greeted with a friendly smile who went through the check in very smoothly and accommodated my needs as best as they could. Undercover parking was a huge bonus as we had driven four hours and needed parking close to unpack our family of five.

The facilities were sparkling clean and comfortable with everything that was needed for the stay .There was a nicely folded extra blanket in the cupboard with an extra pillow .Complementary newspapers for guests at reception .Windows had double glazing which worked a treat blocking out traffic .The hosts are welcoming and nice to converse with .There’s a Woolworths Metro near by .Great pizza and pasta across the road . I enjoyed walking around looking at the heritage buildings and houses of South Melbourne intermingled with some newer architecture.Had fun watching the local dogs playing in a designated dog park close by .10 mins walk away is the Main Street full of interesting shops and pubs .No.12 Tram to St .Kilda or into the city .

The hotel has an excellent location, if you can walk and are not tired, everything you need is at most 3km away, SkyDeck, Albert Park and Municipal Market. Within 1km you will find markets such as Coles, Aldi and Woos.

bit rough and dirty . cupboard fell apart where boil water . light switches very dodgy in the bathroom. turning shower from bath bit touchy pulling lever and very old stained bath , heating cooling average. room service ok, no face washers. ammenities not topped up as stayed over a couple of days. tea sugar etc. staff friendly . parking okay bit tight. value for money I think I would pay no more than $110 per night. not $331 for two nights.

Both receptionists were great. I was a tad late to arrive, but they were so understanding and helped my son and I out. My son loved talking with them both and made us feel welcomed. The room was perfect, and the location was as well.
