Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms had a great view but were not soundproof, and the location was convenient but felt a bit dated. The dining was underwhelming, but the service was satisfactory.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The buffet breakfast was ample, and the facilities were clean, comfortable, and good value for money. The room was large, airy, and well-decorated. The service was kind and compassionate, making my difficult time a bit easier. The hotel's location was excellent, with easy access to transportation. The dining experience, however, was chaotic and a letdown.
I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel. The rooms were much cleaner and better presented than expected, with a good shower and comfortable beds that were made up for us daily. The spacious room even had a large balcony with views of the city skyline. However, the temperature inside was too warm for extended stay.
The hotel's rooms were dark and had a musty smell but the buffet breakfast was enjoyable. The heavy self-closing doors were a bit inconvenient. The service was satisfactory despite a mix-up with the room assignment. The location was convenient and central, but updating may be needed. Dining was good, although the service staff could have been more informative. The hotel had attractive views of Albert Lake Park, and it was close to transport links.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were very comfortable and spacious with a great view of Albert Park. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making me want to extend my stay. The location was perfect for exploring Melbourne, and the dining experience was top-notch. However, the food prices were a bit on the expensive side.
The hotel surprised me with its cleanliness and presentation, exceeding my expectations. However, a noisy party disrupted our stay. The room offered only a view of a wall, but it was sufficient for our needs.
My stay at Parkview was a mixed experience. The rooms, though not as clean as expected, were still spacious, clean, and very comfy, thanks to Parkview. The service was incredible, with staff members going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The location was great for our needs, although the strong Lynx body spray smell was a downside. Dining options varied from not nice at all to really nice. The facilities were adequate but could have been warmer. Overall, a decent stay at Parkview.
