    It was beautiful but could have been exceptional with just 2 small changes.
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Fabulous (42sqm), Guest room, 2 Double, City view
    • Stayed 1 night

    However there 2 thing that would have made my stay exceptional: The bedspread was a little rough on the skin, not soft enough to my liking and other hotels ive been. That definitely a big factor for me and my husband as it incorporates to a good night sleep. The Pool could have been a little warmer to really enjoy an indoor pool in adults hours or even better had a Jacuzzi. This would have made the area more popular and people would have stayed longer and thus using the bar more which could be a plus for the hotel revenue.

    Everything was perfect, beautiful vibrant hotel from the amazing smiling customer service, dancing vibe bedroom, to the sophisticated bathroom with little touches that made the difference compare to other hotels, amazing toilet jet which i personally find delighting, swimming pool area and ambiance.

    Unfortunately the housekeeping service was not up to standard. We had three people in one room and I needed to call every day for an extra set of towels as only two sets were provided. I also needed to request replacement mugs and spoons, soap and tissues as these items weren't replenished when used items were taken. Attention to detail needs to be improved for the price point of the hotel.

    Super cosy room, comfy bed, excellent pool area and delicious food.

    In room dining didn’t seem to match the quality of the rest of the hotel. It wasn’t bad at all, just felt it could be a little better for the price.

    Loved the quirks and styling choices. Staff were all amazing. great location

    Coffee wasn't the best but that's all I can come up with as a negative. Otherwise everything else on offer was great.

    Breakfast was amazing. Such a large selection of food. Location was so simple, staff were very accommodating.

    The bar service within the room is super expensive. Water took a long time to warm up. I didn't like how the bed sheets were two sheets sandwiched over the blanket, it would all become loose and felt cheap for the price per night.

    Beautiful decor, very clean. Lovely reception staff. BEAUTIFUL welcome message for our wedding with some gorgeous sweets waiting for us upon check in.

    Nothing

    Excited for our stay at W Melbourne, reception staff were excellent , booking in was quick and professional staff made us feel welcome. Unusual entrance, not at what we expected as a 5 star hotel, a little underwhelming. Our room was spacious and very comfortable, the toilet with the warm seat and automatic opening was a bit of a novelty. The pool area was incredible and we throughly enjoyed the afternoon enjoying a swim and wine. Drinks and meals terribly overpriced. Stayed 2 nights and our room wasn’t made up. Unsure if we would stay again but it was a worth a visit.

    1. Not the fault of the hotel, but coming home late it is hard to find the entrance of the hotel ... or perhaps that was the wine

    1. Location is excellent. Central and walking distance of many attractions 2. Rooms are really well designed, lots of cool elements
