1. The Terrace at The Settlement

"My wife and I stayed at The Settlement on the 7th and 8th due to a family bereavement. The staff were caring and compassionate from Check in to departure. The rooms are a generous size and spotlessly clean' The food was excellent and the waiting staff and bar staff attentive. Special thank to Jason for his care and kind words at a difficult time. I recommend The Settlement if you need accommodation in the Cranbourne area use The Settlement."

Top Cranbourne Racecourse Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Melbourne Southbank by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoy staying here. Will be staying here again. Staff are friendly and attentive. Really rate it."

Great Southern Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"I had several issues with this property at first. Things like the heater a/c didn’t work. The in room safe was broken. But … after the first days (we were there 4 days) we were moved to a room where everything worked. So that was OK."

Rendezvous Hotel Melbourne

8/10 Good

"nice"

The Victoria Hotel Melbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located so easy access to different food outlets, transport readily available. Very helpful staff"

Mercure Melbourne Southbank

8/10 Good

"I stay at this hotel each year when I visit family in Australia. I have been coming for years now and stay from 1 to 2 weeks at a time. I love the location right by the Yarra river in Southbank with easy access to the CBD. I love that the hotel is small. The rooms are quiet and adequate. The bathrooms also adequate. The staff are friendly and responsive. They have the best buffet breakfast which is often included in the hotel price. This year however, not only wasn’t my breakfast included, but the price of the hotel had gone up considerably. Coming from overseas, hotel price is an important factor for me. However, for now, I like the hotel well enough, that I will continue to stay there on my annual visits to Melbourne."

Hotel Grand Chancellor Melbourne

8/10 Good

"Staff, room and location were all wonderful. The only downside was that when arriving in our room there was a fan/air con that was extremely noisy and grating. We advised reception of this when leaving for the afternoon, and were told they would look into it. On returning a new reception staff member advised it has been fixed by maintenance so a room move wasnt necessary. Unfortunately a 4am, the noise started again and was intrusive enough to wake us up. Thankfully the following night it happened around 11pm. When checking out we let reception know, only to be told that a maintenance request had been filed and they were aware the problem wasnt fixed. It wasnt a huge deal, but was disruptive and we would have accepted the room change had we not been told the issue was fixed. Otherwise the room was clean, and location near QV, melbourne central and trans is great."

WRAP on Southbank

8/10 Good

"This apartment is in a great location for staying in melbourne. The apartment itself could use a little bit more TLC some walls are scuffed, one tap was loose and the bathroom silicon could use a bit more cleaning, but these were minor things. Check-in and staff were excellent. The bed was comfortable, sheets and bedding clean, which was just what I needed."

Oaks Melbourne St Kilda Road Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at Oaks St. Kilda but I would definitely come back for a leisure stay. The property is close to trams and very close to CBD. The staff werre very friendly and helpful. I wanted to especially thank Jude and Shamjja for their assistance and patience. Their professionalism was on point and they understood exactly what I needed to do when I stayed at property. Thank you both, its much appreciated. This property is well located and very convenient."
