I booked the Family Ensuite Room, it is great for friends or family of 4 which includes a toilet, a queen bed and TV(don't receive well), wardrobe, table, a chair, hair dryer, iPod-docking station, air-condition, comfortable mattresses and great view. The corridors had 4 to 5 individual toilets, some with showers, and they are cleaned very often. There were vents so the toilet smelled fresh but the air can be cold during winter. The hotel had daily activities and we joined in the trip to the Queen Victoria Winter night market Hosted by Ben, and we had great time eating and shopping and taking lots of photos. The Hotel's mini cinema had pretty new movies like furiosa and kraven the hunter, we watched Paddington 2 and there was no subtitles. There's snacks and drinks Venting Machines at a few levels. I like the Food space which have 8 cooking stations and fridge space to keep my food. Dinning area comes with microwave, toaster, air fryer, coffee/tea stations. Plates/cups/pans/knifes are provided, you just need to buy your own food and cook there(some seasoning is provided too) and there might be food from other guests that are left for anyone to use. We got to use the Laundry space and the coin machine is right outside. I like the Hot Tub/Jacuzzi at the roof that is big enough for 4 to 8 people with a View of the city. This is a great Hotel with different room options and lots of Facilities spaces if you decide to stay in and chill. The check-in is friendly and fast, but the check-out is a bit slow because of the deposit refund, they have to check our room before they refund us. Everyone is friendly and my questions and queries were answered. The downside is that the room is not soundproof, we can hear people running, talking in the corridor and slamming the doors shut.

Booked a 6-room dorm, and was satisfied with the cleanliness and amenities. Bring your own padlock and bag to place your food in the common fridge.

It’s my first time sleeping bunk bed in Melbourne. There are few things that made me satisfied. 1. Friendly staffs, always with a smile and small talks 2. Big kitchen - you can cook your own there!!!! 3. The hotel takes cleanliness seriously- toilets & shower rooms are cleaned 5 times a day
Response from Property: Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We’re so happy to hear that your first time in a bunk bed in Melbourne was enjoyable. It’s wonderful that you appreciated our friendly staff, spacious kitchen, and our commitment to cleanliness.

This hotel is one of the best hotel in Melbourne. location is perfect because it is located in the center of city and easy to find. It is close to Victoria state library. Facilities us also good, especially the kitchen where cooking items well equippednt to use. Heating system is good and room is warm The best thing is this hotel's staff. They are very kind and nice. especially the staff, Melvin is the best staff. He gives guests good service and does his best to satisfy guests needs. I asked him to solve my room's heating system He solved the problem sincerely. Thank Melvin for your service. 이 호텔은 점알 추천하고 싶습니다. 방이 좁은 것 빼고는 모든게 완벽합니다. 시설도 좋고 겨울인데 난방도 좋습니다. 위치도 시내 중심가에 아주 가깝고 찾기도 쉬워 빅토리아 주립 도서관 근방입니다. 이 호텔의 부엌과 루프탑은 정말 칭찬하고 싶습니다. 주방은 넓고 주방시설이 완비되어 요리하기 정말 편합니다. 8층 위 루프탑은 멜버른 도심의 아름다운 야경을 감상하며 술 한잔 하기도 좋고 여기서 흡연도 가능합니다. 직원들도 정말 칞절하고 특히 밤에 근무하는 Melvin은 손님의 요구조건을 들어주고 해결하는 모습이 인상적이었습니다. Melvin, thanks a lot.
Response from Property: Thank you so much for your generous review. We're thrilled to hear you had such a positive experience at Space and that you enjoyed our central location, well-equipped kitchen, and warm, comfortable rooms.A special thanks for your kind words about Melvin.

Exactly like my last review. A Good place. Reliable. Reproducible. Mostly according to the Rules stated... One can't help some of the guests... like the ones who seem to have to clog the toilets at 2 a.m. & strew wisps of tp all over the bathroom. OR the Vegemite knife in the yogurt.....A mystery. The staff are on it str8 away, and keep a close and generous eye to keeping everything running common sensically.
Response from Property: Hi there,Thanks for another thoughtful and honest review! We really appreciate your recognition of the consistency we aim for — reliable, reproducible, and (mostly!) by the book.We have to agree... some guest mysteries may never be solved — the 2 a.m. toilet clogs and the Vegemite-in-yogurt saga being top contenders! 😅 Thankfully, our team is always on the ball and ready to respond quickly and sensibly.We’re glad to have guests like you who notice the effort. Looking forward to welcoming you back again soon!Best regards,The Space Hotel Team

Great hostel, lots of activities and social group outings. Located very close to the Markets and Melbourne CBD with the free Tram zone so easy to get around with plenty to do. I had a larger room but my friends had really small rooms that would be the only negative. Great roof top space for evening views and socialising with hot tub. The best hostel kitchen I've stayed in and have travelled the east coast and Western Australia. So many stations, great number of quality equipment and lots of space for food although fridges are always full np matter where you go. Really happy with this stay.
Response from Property: Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed our activities, central location, and rooftop space. It’s great to know our kitchen impressed you as well—we always strive to provide quality facilities for our guests. We do take your feedback about room sizes into consideration, and we'll continue to work on improving the overall experience for everyone.We’re so glad you had a positive stay, and we hope to welcome you back soon!Cheers,The Space Hotel Team

The amenities were amazing. Bathroom very clean since it’s going to be cleaned 5 times per day. Kitchen is really big and has much to offer. You can cook literally anything. Great social areas - mainly the kitchen and the rooftop.
