Stayed in a 2-bed, 2-bathroom apartment on level 15 of the Arkley block. Overall the apartment was great for us (family of 4) with loads of space, 2 good bathrooms and a full kitchen. We had a harbour view which was beautiful and the free tram stopped very close by. Minor complaints would be the distance from reception to the... More

Last visit was with my wife in November 2012. An overseas friend joined us there for a few days. Again, we were NOT disappointed. OK, we were not up near the new building area but sorry, I have lunch in my home city sometimes and suffer that. The convenience is great - trams within spitting distance, the security, full kitchen... More

Having stayed in the Docklands many times before, this was the first time I have stayed in the Grand Mercure Apts. & definitely the last. Dirty room (dishes from last guest/garbage not done), NO view other than construction site that fired up each morning at 545am! Parking allotment ended up in a $66 fine as misunderstanding of three spaces to... More

We stayed in a three bedroom apartment for 4 nights. The view was magnificent over Melbourne and the Docklands. Great position as close to a good selection of restaurants as well as Harbour Town shopping and a Safeway supermarket. There was also a small convenience store just around the corner. Had an issue with the DVD player not working and... More

This was my first visit to Melbourne and I thoroughly enjoyed it. We stayed at the Docklands Grand Mecure and we could not fault our room or the facilities. As noted from other reviews, locating the reception proved a little tricky, but not too bad, thanks to the assistance received by Melbourne's finest and our helpful cabbie. Especially given that...

A great location, apartments with business offices in a quiet area. Front of a promenade along the harbor and several small stores including a grocery store, not to mention a few restaurant. The tramway in front of the building that is entirely free and that goes around the city. Even public transportation is also available. The staff of the Docklands... More
