“There's a distinct sense of place at this hotel in South Melbourne, where you're not far from city sights and a tram stop is practically outside. I particularly like the Malaysian restaurant, an unexpected find, along with the spacious rooms that make it suitable for families or longer stays. From what I gathered, it's a solid home base, especially if you appreciate having South Melbourne Market within walking distance.”
