Best South Wharf Hotels

"We stayed at Novotel Melbourne South Wharf as a family and had a fantastic time. The location is ideal — right next to DFO for shopping, with easy tram access to the city and kid-friendly spots like SEA LIFE Melbourne and the Melbourne Museum. Our room was modern, clean, and had beautiful views of the city. The beds were super comfy, and the space worked well for a family of four, although a little more storage would’ve been helpful. Staff were friendly and accommodating, and the breakfast buffet had great options for both kids and adults. While there's no pool or play area, the convenience, comfort, and location more than made up for it. A great base for exploring Melbourne as a family — we’d definitely come back!"

"We had an another amazing stay here.  Staff warmth and approachability is a stand out.  Rooms are clean and comfy. Best location for the Southbank DFO, and so many restaurants on the Yarra right outside, topped of with an easy 10 minute walk to Southern Cross station for the express airport bus."

"Check-in on the first floor, after entering the room, the room is strange, I don’t want to sit low and change the room immediately, it’s not wrong, change the 11th floor, the view feels comfortable, the kitchen utensils are relatively old, the decoration is generally the same, the scenery is good~"

"The one-bedroom apartment I originally booked was upgraded to a three-bedroom apartment (actually a two-bedroom and one-studio) without any notice. The original one-bedroom was very cheap. The kitchen is a rare gas stove in an Australian hotel apartment, which is convenient for cooking. The swimming pool is small, but there is a 25 meter walkway, and there is a spa, sauna, and the night view of the Yarra River is also beautiful, which is really good value. The traffic is normal. It is close to the Southern Cross Station, but it is far from Federation Square, which means that it is not close to Chinatown and the main shopping area. It is close to the office area, which is suitable for business trips. The only pity is that its front office is beside a turntable, and there is no place to park for free around it. The only parking spaces that can be seen are also for the police. In this way, after you drive out of the garage, returning the keys is a very crazy thing. I don't know if anyone else solved it. I parked the car on the turntable, rushed in, threw the key and ran. . . . . . Too embarrassing. Check-in also has this problem, because its garage requires a key to go in. It can't be like other hotels. Stop in and then go out to check in. But if you do n’t check in, you do n’t have the key. . . ."

"The hotel is very unique and has a cozy feel. I booked a riverside room with a view of the Yarra River. The restaurant is great, and if the weather is nice, you can have breakfast by the river. The croissants and coffee in the cafe are excellent. The spa is especially recommended. I had a facial, and for $250, it was very cost-effective. Because I was in a hurry, the spa staff even started my service half an hour early. It felt very appreciated. It was a very good stay and I will go back next time I have the chance."

"The room was spotlessly clean, although disposable slippers were not provided. For a family room, the bathroom was a little on the small side, but it was manageable. Transportation is incredibly convenient. The hotel is located right next to the last stop of Melbourne's Free Tram Zone, which makes getting around the city center completely free and incredibly easy. From the airport, you can take the SkyBus to Southern Cross Station, and then it's just one free tram stop away. Crown Casino is just over the bridge, and there are plenty of dining options nearby."

"My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stayed in Oakwood Premier Hotel. The receptionist guy on Friday Morning, 10th Jan, was super nice, friendly and kind. He changed our room facing the city view. We went straight to the hotel after we arrive in Melbourne to put our luggage in their luggage storage because the check in start at 3pm. However, our room were already ready, so we managed to get some sleep and rest. The bed is so comfortable and we got a amazing view! So I really enjoyed our stay there for the whole time! What a great first travel experience in Melbourne! Surely, we will be back!"

"位置很好 空間很大 就樓下鐵路旁 不過作為早出晚歸的旅客 表示睡得很舒服"

"Generally speaking is ok. Need to walk around 10mins to tram station. Only complaint is the lighting in the room, we usually leave only the bathroom light on when sleeping (in case of need to visit bathroom at night); but bathroom light in AC hotel is linked to the dressing table light outside of the bathroom, which means we cannot independently turn off only the bathroom light. In the end, we have to leave a reading light on after turning off the bathroom/dressing table light, not ideal for a good night sleep."

"Excellent location and a very spacious pool. It's very convenient for business travelers, and the room amenities are modern. I would definitely stay at this hotel again. Shopping is also easily accessible, and there are several delicious Chinese restaurants near the casino."
