good location, hotel itself modern and clean, but the room we had was very small!! the bathroom in particular was tiny!!! ok for just one night but i wouldnt stay longer. more

The staff were lovely, and so helpful. The room was nice and big, fronting on to Spencer St , just near the Exhibition Centre, with plenty of restaurants around, and even a corner store to buy milk etc a couple of doorsaway. Double hung windows, no noise and a nice big plasma screen. Whatmore could you want? Great value, great... more

My partner and I stayed here with a little hesitation after some of the reviews...but give the price we were never expecting 5 star! This place is great! We had one of the smaller rooms, but lets be honest..were really only needed somewhere to shower and sleep and for the price we paid, thats exactly what we got....we have stayed... more

really surprised by reading the negative reviews on this site, yes the bathroom is small but very cute and very workable. If your looking for a really comfortable and trendy hotel in the middle of Melbourne for a great price then this is it, service is good and I am very happy to recommend it to people who don¹t expect... more

The room was small, bathroom had poor light, shower had no curtain, water flowed away from the drain to flood the bathroom yet they had a sign to save your towel to protect the environment.

Overall, not a bad experience. I received very good services from the staff, and the room was clean and modern. The wall-mounted flat screen tv is nice too. The location was good - being a short walk from Southern Cross station and also a 5 min stroll to the Convention/Exihibition Centre, it worked out very well for my purpose. There... more

When booking a single room at this hotel make sure you are clear about the dimensions of the room. Room 126 is the size of a dog's box with built- in cupboards around the bed, a desk and a bedside table. All of which don't actually fit the size of the room so you need to move yourself around this... more

Organised accommodation at the Above Pensione after reading a few reviews we thought we would give it a go. Worst Mistake Eveeerrr... We paid $150 per night per room. There was four of us going down for a long weekend. My particular room was suppose to have a double bed but instead was two single beds pushed together. Which is... more

I thought I'd give myself a treat, and decided to go to the Pensione, a nice boutique hotel. Instead, I got stuck in an 'unrefurbished' room, which is basically a very plain and boring, small room (nothing like what they have in the pictures), at an average of $140 per night. Suffice to say, I was highly dissapointed. In retrospect,... more
