“Great location, basic facilities - not bad.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

Me and 3 friends got a good price for staying four nights at this place, and I wasn't expecting too much, which was good because the hotel probably barely met expectations. On arrival, we were given our room keys at reception, walked to our room, opened the door to find a shocked looking man laying on the bed. OK -... More

I stayed here with my boyfriend in November just for two nights. It couldnt be in a better location for getting around St Kilda and was surprisingly quiet at night since there's nightlife basically right outside the window (we had a fron facing room). We paid $110 a night from hotels.com and the extra $10 was to get a room... More

I stayed at the Cosmopolitan in august last year and was most impressed by the friendly staff who attended our every need. We decided to upgrade our room because we had believed we had booked a room with a kitchen and the staff gave us a higher standard of room without any hassle. They even told us to leave our... More

“Great place to stay with free parking and it's so close to everything”

If you are looking for a budget hotel in St Kilda, this must be one of the best. I found the staff very helpful and friendly and you are only a few minutes walk to Acland Street with it's vast choice of restaurants. The free parking is a great bonus too. More

I stayed with my husband for a night here and found it very pleasant. We booked a Cosmo Deluxe room which was good-sized and had double-glazing, so we were not bothered with street noise.
