We arrived on an International flight at midnight and had to be back at the airport at 5am so the Formule1 was perfect. We wheeled our luggage to the motel and had expected to have to use the 'self-check-in' machine but the manager had stayed open as there were quite a few from our flight that were staying there. He... more

Check-in clerk was kind of unfriendly, location of the hotel is very convenient, close to the airport and a big gas station and McDonalds. Room was as any other Formula 1 hotel room, a bit cold at first but excellent heating system made an end to the chills. Internet kiosk was crap since th mouse was busted. 99 AUD per... more

Ok hotel to stay for an overnite and an early next day flight. You can walk there with a roller bag or two in just a few minutes on a path with good directions once you get outside of the terminal. Just basic. Seemed clean. Was $99 so cheaper by far than any of the hotels nearby. Beats taking a... more

On the plus side its a 5 minute walk from the airport so good for a place to crash...but the rooms and toilets feel like you are in prison!!! I've stayed in many a backpackers for less money that are far superior to this place which takes the phrase "budget hotel" to the limit, but then, I guess those backpackers... more

Everyone comes here for catching an early bird. It is 5 minutes walk to the airport and have a 24 hours McDonalds 2 minutes walk. The room is small but can provide at 3 or 4 persons sleep. It is also quiet enough for sound sleep. Compares to the nearest two famous hotels, it is a good budget airport hotel. more

Arrived this morning at 2.00am from Singapore. We had booked this motel because of it's proximity to the airport. We had hoped to get a few hours sleep and a shower before travelling to our hotel in St.Kilda.. We had prepaid for our room and was advised to use the after hours checkin machine. This would not allow us in... more

We had just returned from a flight from Singapore and arrived in at 2 AM. Our flight out to Adelaide was not until 9 AM so we just wanted a no frills place to sleep for the night. While we had low expectations for a place costing $99, Formule 1 managed to lower the bar. On the good side -... more

Stayed at this hotel as was transiting overnight in Melbourne - although I arrived mid morning I wasn't leaving until early the following morning. Had to wait for the hotel reception to open at midday, so hung around for 30 minutes outside. Once checked in I basically dropped my bags and went to the city, came back in the evening... more

Formule 1 have raised the bar in Australia for budget accommodation. They are cheaper than many hostels and the rooms are always clean, more than I can say for most offerings in the same price range. The location makes F1 Melbourne Airport a standout. Just a short walk from T1, T2 and T3. My wife and I often need to... more
