Stayed here with a couple of friends in Sept 2008. We booked this hotel mainly because the rates were cheap and the pictures made the rooms look big. Unfortunately, it wasn't the case. The rooms were super tiny without even a proper bathroom (it was merged with the room with only a shower curtain as a barrier). The inside of... more

Was traveling with family, 3 of us. Booked a standard room with 3 beds. However one bed is a bunk bed which is above the main double bed. To be fair this was the cheapest accommodation I could find in Melbourne at 99$ for all 3, but the room was a tight fit for the 3 of us. In hindsight... more

For the price of this hotel we were expecting more than backpacker style accommodation instead it was well below a value or budget hotel. The staff were unfriendly and unhelpful. We had to make our own kids bunk beds twice, and the bedding supplied was minimal and poor quality. There was no hot water for 2 out of the 4... more

Dear "Not Recomended for Families" The F1's offer some of the best budget style, basic accommodation. They have very competitive inner city rates and usually offer great value for money. Accor offers a variety of accommodation styles, ranging from the very basic to beautifully appointed luxury hotels. I was very sorry to see in this instance that there was a...

The location of this hotel is the good for almost anything you could think of. Be it food, shopping, entertainment or nightlife. you name it, you got it. And all these places could be reached on foot. I stayed there for 3 + 3 nights. The room size I got is reasonable, clean and with bathroom and toilet. It also... more

Location is no doubt great, right in the middle of CBD, short walk to Federation Square. However once you enter the building, horror begins to unroll. To reach the reception one has to pass through a dark alley to the elevators which take for ever to come. The reception area is cramped and like a bank counter manned by unfriendly... more

We stayed here just 1 night and happen to meet the Australian Open. This is the budget hotel you want: near coles supermarket, tram, flinders station, Southern Cross Station(walk 15 mins). Arrived early and we had to lock luggage $4 each until 2 pm to check in. The room is small as all formule 1 hotel. Only bad things is... more

Most of the other reviews of this hotel are fairly accurate. The rooms are smallish but ok for 2 people. The shower and toilet are separate and ok size but there is no bathroom to speak of. You have a sink with a mirror above it and that's it. Once you step out of the shower you really need to... more

The ground floor rear exit opens to a laneway known as Equitable Place, with great cafes including Barista Express. The location is hard to beat - trams, train stations, the best arcades, Collins and Bourke Streets are all close by. My room had a queen bed plus single bunk bed above it, TV, tiny shower and toilet, but few extras.... more

Formule1 is very conveniently located in Melbourne especially if you are relying on public transport on walking. We chose to use the stairs as the 2 lifts seemed to be working overtime as the hotel was full during our stay. We stayed in a room with queen bed and single bunk over the top. Bed was Very comfy and room... more

Formule1 hotel definitely exceeded our expectations! The location was awesome - on the corner of Elizabeth and Collins St, it was central to everything. We came to see the musical wicked, which we could walk to (only a block away). There was a Subway immediately next door, and just about every other shop in Elizabeth St! Great shopping was in... more
