Quest on Lonsdale is a good mid-range option for business travellers and families. Though it clearly targets the former, families would find the apartments agreeable. Even though there is not gym on the property, Genesis Fitness is right across the street, and offers half-price entry for Quest guests (ask at hotel reception, as Genesis doesn't have the tickets).

Very compact but well laid out little apartments. Everything you need is here. Very practical for a few days. Only criticism I have is that they could use a bit of soundproofing. Heard way too much of the screaming baby in the next room....

Stayed at this property for 1 night. It was clean, quiet and the staff very helpful. Close to theatres and only short walk to CBD. Would suggest for short stays but not longer term as rooms pretty small. Bed was comfy though.

I stayed here for five nights on a corporate booking. This review is written in the context of the price charged for the room, which is similar to that charged by many other serviced apartment properties nearby. I found the room (on the sixth floor) absurdly small - you actually had to move the coffee table to make enough floor... More

I have stayed here before for a holiday a few years ago, but returned this week for business. This hotel is quite basic and the rooms are small but comfortable. The beds are HUGE, which is nice and there are plenty of extra pillows provided, which unfortunately for me was not any help as none of the pillows were adequate... More

Great service, great location. The room was basic but had what I needed for an overnight stay. There was some street noise coming into the living room area, because of the location of the bedroom, the noise was almost non existent. No hotel parking.

Handled check-in well despite the late hour. Apartment was clean and tidy and contained the essentials for washing and making drinks. Apartment is conveniently situated for downtown Melbourne, in easy walking distance of most of Melbourne. Small convenience store nearby for breakfast basics. Nice Greek restaurant couple of blocks down the street, Chinatown close by. Staff friendly. In Australian terms... More

Basic nice modern clean apartment. Not exactly central but a short tram ride. Having the market over the road was handy but noisy. A little overpriced but a 7 out of 10. Not really for us but if someones wants basic modern and clean accomadation and dont mind the price its ok.
