Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands

Basic hotel close to the train station. Not the closest to the city center but accessible by foot (20min). Big room with lit of space. Bed was comfy. Bathroom was practical.

I thought that this hotel was absolutely excellent. Located just a few minutes walk from Southern Cross train station (also where the airport buses are), this made an excellent base for exploring Melbourne's CBD and surrounding areas. The room was spacious, the bed was really comfortable (and massive for a solo traveller😆), the bathroom was extremely well equipped. It was excellent value for money too, especially with breakfast included. Breakfast was delicious every morning too, with a coffee machine, juices, fruit, cereals, pancakes, and a buffet selection. It's also very useful to have the fridge, microwave and kettle in the room, especially if you're sticking to a budget for other meals. The staff were all so friendly and helpful, from breakfast staff to those on reception. I simply couldn't recommend this hotel enough.

Very close and easy to get to from southern cross station. (Tip: there is a lift right near the channel 9 building, takes you straight down to the street the hotel is on) Check in and out was straightforward. Clean and well maintained, everything worked. Hotel room has cutlery, crockery, fridge, microwave and kettle with tea and coffee Best accessible bathroom we’ve had. Staff were all friendly and nothing was a problem for them. Any request or problem was dealt with friendly and fast. One staff member even went out of his way to tell me about the building across the road when we asked :) Breakfast was great and changed daily. Large range of choice. The hotel felt very safe and we did not hear anything from any other rooms.

We’ve stayed here roughly ten times over the last few years and it’s always our go to! It’s located a short 5 minute walk from southern cross, the staff are always very friendly and the prices are great (plus you don’t have a pesky $100 security fee to worry about). The rooms are always clean and tidy and most have decent few of the streets down below. The receptionist we had was super lovely and even went out of her way to look if there was a different room that was ready so we could check in early!

The hotel is in the perfect location to drive in from outer Melbourne, so perfect for people with a car. They use part of the public car park so there is plenty of space to park. Located right behind the southern cross and you can easily get to Tram on burke st by walking past the Southern Cross Station bridge. The room is quite spacious and very clean. Good size of TV with option to Chromecast your show. The staff are polite and very friendly.
