The hype
Travelers love the 'boujee' aesthetic and shopping convenience but balk at the add-on costs.
Hotel Chadstone Melbourne - Mgallery By Sofitel
$160-220 / 晚
如果以下情况适用，请预订 You want a luxury crash pad attached to the Southern Hemisphere's largest mall and don't plan on going into the Melbourne CBD.
为什么人们喜欢它
- Direct walkway access to Chadstone Shopping Centre (The Fashion Capital)
- Level 12 rooftop pool with skyline views
- Pastore restaurant's woodfire Italian dining is genuinely excellent
快速了解： A glitzy, gold-accented shopping fortress that feels like a spaceship landed in the suburbs—luxurious, but you are sleeping next to a highway and a parking garage.
@marwin_says 的评论: I booked this for my birthday and it was perfect. Being able to shop at Chadstone and then crash in this gorgeous room was a dream. That digital mirror art is even cooler in person, and the bath was pure bliss.
住过这里的客人说
Reality check
The bathroom design gets consistent hate—towel rails are mounted at ankle height, requiring a deep squat to dry your hands.
- Your primary vacation goal is high-end retail therapy
- You have a car and need a luxury stopover in the SE suburbs
- You love a rooftop bar scene without the city crowds
清洁与维护
9.3
- Housekeeping: Excellent daily service, though pool area can get cluttered with glasses on busy afternoons.
- Bathroom hygiene: Spotless grout and glass, very high standard of finish.
- Maintenance: New build feel (opened 2019), everything works, though some showers have a high-pitched pump whine.
- Linens & towels: Plush, high-thread-count linens and thick towels (once you find them on the floor rack).
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of signature expensive floral scent; rooms are neutral and fresh.

常见问题和隐藏提示
预订前您真正想了解的一切。
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the Level 12 indoor pool is heated and open year-round, with great views.
How much is parking?
Steep. Self-parking is ~$50 AUD/day; Valet is ~$95 AUD/day. Free parking in the mall is time-limited and monitored.
Can I walk to the city?
No. You are 17km away. An Uber to CBD costs ~$40-60 AUD depending on surge.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. The buffet at Pastore is excellent but costs ~$45 AUD per person if not in your rate.
What is the 'Australia Venture Capital' location?
This appears to be a data error. The hotel is firmly in Chadstone, a suburban shopping district.
Is it kid-friendly?
Surprisingly yes—Legoland Discovery Centre is just across the walkway in the mall.
内部人士建议
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast one morning and walk into the mall to 'The Social Quarter' for cheaper, high-quality brunch options.
- ✨
If you self-park, validate your ticket at the hotel front desk to ensure you get the guest rate, otherwise mall rates can apply.
- ✨
The 'Holism Retreat' spa is popular; book treatments 2 weeks in advance for weekends.
出发前需要了解的5件事
💡The 'City View' rooms often just look over a massive concrete car park roof before you see the city.
💡The bathroom towel rails are bizarrely mounted at ankle height—you have to squat to get a towel.
💡Housekeeping sometimes misses clearing cocktail glasses from the pool deck during busy weekends.
💡The 'doonas' (duvets) are extremely thick and warm; the AC struggles to compensate in summer.
💡You are technically sleeping in a parking lot complex—the glamour is all internal.
