Reviews
A little small I would only recommend it if you’re staying for a night or two. Minimal amenities but it gets the job done. It’s basically like University accommodation. I had a pleasant night here and the location is very good for Queen Victoria Market and the Melbourne Museum. Pretty good price though so you get what you pay for.
One thing I would put in high regard is the shower it’s really good, high pressure and heats fast.
Honestly booked this place the day on because the hostel I booked was horrendous, and I’m so happy I did. There is a communal kitchen, and the laundromat is very cheap. There is a mini game/pool area and outside seating to spend time with mates. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. And the location is right in the city, like a 5 minute walk to Melbourne central. Honestly such a saving grace. Will be booking here next time I come.
The room is very small. I feel like I can't even turn around when I'm washing in the bathroom. The room is relatively clean. It's a good choice if you just want to sleep for one night. For students who don't have a particularly sufficient budget, just one night is fine.
Overall generally speaking , I had a pleasant stay.First the positives which are the location,comfortable bedding and some amenities like iron board, safe box, good tv.
The reasons I'm not giving it a 4 star are - AC was not working that well .For the price, checkin at 2pm and checkout at 10am is not fair.that means the hotel is charging for 20 hrs of stay.Usually the standard in other hotels is 11 to 12pm checkout.Thirdly,they do not provide even one complimentary drinking water bottle which I thought was stingy.Also the queen size room was pretty small.
Mostly very small rooms with modern but gaudy decor, a bit cramped but reasonably comfortable. Good beds, cleaned nicely, friendly staff. Rooms have tea/coffee and a small bar fridge for your own drinks/food. Not all rooms have a desk/table …
The location is on the edge of the business district with easy access to transportation. It can be reached within ten minutes on foot from the business district. In addition, the tram in the business district is free and convenient for …
Absolutely delighted with our stay at Essence Hotel Carlton! Avi and the entire staff went above and beyond to make our time in Melbourne truly memorable. Their exceptional service and helpfulness were the highlights of our experience. We can't wait to return to this beautiful city, and Essence Hotel will undoubtedly be our top choice. Highly recommend it for a fantastic stay!
The staffs here are super nice and friendly. I have interacted with Avi and a few others. They are patient and genuinely wanted to help even for things that might not be their responsibility. Haven't had such good customer service for a while.
