We (family of 4 adults) stayed for 5 nights in a 2 BR apartment in this property. The location is excellent. You can walk practically to a lot of the sights if you have the energy to do so from QVM, Flinders Station all the way to the Southbanks. Alternatively, it is easy to catch a tram or the free... more

Rooms are a reasonable size but a bit dark and gloomy. Standard room has kitchen area, lounge and separate bedroom. Kitchen is well equipped. Bathroom especially in need of refurbishment, lots of black mould around the bath. If you have a room with a bath/shower it is impossible to turn on the shower without getting soaked with cold water first... more

Being at such prime location made a huge difference to our trip in Melbourne! it's right at the mid point of town - i.e. you could pretty much walk to everywhere around CBD (from QVM to Flinders street, from William to Exhibition street. In case you're feeling lazy, the tram is at doorstep! It's our first time in Melbourne, our... more

I organised a stay here recently. We booked 3 rooms. 2 x 2 bedrooms & 1 bedroom appartment. Thought the accomodation was perfect, location great. I think if the staff had smiled their faces would have cracked. In one of the 2 bedroom appartments the a/c did not work for the first evening and even though it was Melbourne it... more

We were in Melbourne with our young family (2 children) for a short break recently. We chose the Somerset on Elizabeth because of its location which is great - close to the Bourke St Mall, major shopping centres and tourist spots. The weather was good, and we mainly walked around the city or took the trams. Our rooms were located... more

My husband and I stayed in a one-bedroom apartment at the Somerset on Elizabeth in March of 2007. The location in Melbourne is right in the downtown Central Business District, so it is adjacent to several shopping areas and downtown attractions. However, the hotel is on a main street with a tram line, so you will likely be woken up... more

We stayed in a one bedroom deluxe apartment and from the moment we arrived, almost to the moment we left, we were very happy with our choice of accomodation. Clean and well presented, although as pointed out in a previous review the furniture is slightly stained and unexpected for such a nice apartment franchise. There weren't any manuals for the... more

Great hotel. Loads to choose from in Melbourne, but if you can afford a little extra money, this is the place! a$180 a night (around £60 gbp) is great value to stay in the heart of melbourne. i was there for 3 weeks, travelling by myself and this was a brilliant place to base myself. staff were friendly and helpful... more

We stayed 2 nights in late April in a one bedroom suite. Arrived a bit early for check in but the staff asked for my cell phone number so they could call us as soon as the room was ready, and after about an hour of sightseeing, they called and we returned and went straight up to the room, the... more
