The 6 Best Hotels In Melbourne
Melbourne, Australia is my favourite city. Melbourne is a multicultural, vibrant city that’s known for its world-class restaurants, rich arts scene and lively atmosphere. The city is a popular destination for travelers and backpackers. Melbourne’s iconic lanes are my favorite. I love the street art, and finding hidden bars. There’s so much you can do in Melbourne that it would be easy to spend a whole week without getting bored. It doesn’t matter how much time you have, but choosing a good hotel is important. Not all hotels are great in the city. Some of them were even worse! To help you get the most out of your trip to Australia, I’ve put together a list of my favorite hotels in Melbourne.

I thought it was a good job to maintain the character of the building while updating all public areas with elegant details such as gilded molding. The hotel offers a fitness centre, and the happy hour they offer each evening is a nice touch. The happy hour is a nice addition. The rooms are comfortable and spacious, with plenty of natural lighting coming in through the large windows.
