Novotel Melbourne Preston
$100-170 / شب
این را رزرو کنید اگر You need a polished, reliable HQ in Melbourne's north near the hospital or university and don't mind a commute to the CBD.
چرا مردم آن را دوست دارند
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping city views on high floors
- Solid 4.5-star standards in a suburb usually lacking premium hotels
- Access to the massive Bell City complex amenities (pool, gym, multiple dining options)
نکته سریع: A sharp, business-ready tower that feels surprisingly upscale for its suburban highway location, even if the 'resort' vibes are a bit shared-campus.
بررسی شده توسط @KatHeath: I stayed here for a quick business trip and it was exactly what I needed. The room was spotless, the Nespresso machine was a huge perk, and having an iron ready to go made my morning stress-free.
مهمانانی که اینجا ماندند میگویند
Reality check
The 'city views' come with a side of traffic noise, and the housekeeping sometimes misses the finer details like dusting bedside tables or clearing garden rubbish.
- You have business at La Trobe Uni or Austin Hospital
- You want a full-service hotel experience without paying CBD prices
- You appreciate easy parking ($20/day) compared to the city nightmare
تمیزی و نگهداری
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though reviewers occasionally note missed dust on bedside tables.
- Bathroom hygiene: Strong. Grout is typically white and silicone fresh. Water pressure is excellent.
- Maintenance: Good, but exterior areas (gardens, walkways) sometimes have accumulated rubbish.
- Linens & towels: Crisp white commercial grade. No complaints of stains or wear.
- Odors & scents: Neutral. No heavy perfumes, but hallways can smell of 'hotel cleaning product'.

Join the Accor Live Limitless program before booking; members often get free wifi upgrades or late checkout priority.
- ✨
The 'Stampton & Co' cafe downstairs does a grab-and-go breakfast that's half the price of the full buffet.

Ask for a 'refurbished' room; while most are modern, some corners of the complex are showing their 2008 vintage.
5 نکتهای که باید قبل از رفتن بدانید
💡The 'gym' is actually a proper commercial-grade fitness center (24/7) shared with the complex, better than typical hotel gyms.
💡You can't take leftover breakfast pastries out of the restaurant—staff enforce this 'stupid policy' strictly.
💡The walk to the tram stop involves crossing a very busy, multi-lane intersection.
💡The 'garden view' is sometimes just a view of the car park with some trees.
💡Room service has a $5 tray charge on top of the menu price.
