“Good hotel in a great location.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

The location of the hotel cannot be beat. It is right next to Southgate mall on the Southbank, within walking distance from Federation Square and the CBD. The suite was very spacious and in great conditions. My suite did not have a direct view of the CBD, but it was still a pleasant enough view. My only gripe about the room was the bathroom, which looked quite dated. The bathroom door did not even shut properly, and the running water was quite weak. But otherwise, the room was great.

The staff was friendly and helpful, except for the person who checked me out, who was a little curt when I asked him not to staple the invoice with the credit card receipt. Otherwise, a fantastic stay and would recommend it to anyone staying in Melbourne.

“Great hotel in Melbourne”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

I stayed here for business for 1 week and it was great in every way. Perfect location, an easy walk to Southbank shops and restaurants as well as a short walk over the river to the downtown area. The suite had plenty of space with a separate living room and bedroom, as well as a nice balcony and full kitchen (including a washer-dryer!). Very friendly staff. I would definitely stay here again.

“Home away from home -”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

Have stayed at this hotel many times with different members of my family and have always throughly enjoyed our stay. Staff so helpful & friendly - once one of my daugters was heavily pregnant & got gastro - the staff could not have been more helpful, treated us like family. Regardless if our visit is for the Australian Open, AFL football, Concert at Rod Laver Arena there is no where else in Melbourne we would even consider staying. I would suggest this hotel to anyone who enjoys superb service, outstanding service by the staff...........we always refer to it as our "home away from home"...................

“Excellent choice if you need more room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

Stayed here with the family on a business trip so wanted a bit more room than a hotel.

Quay West is excellently located on the South Bank opposite Flinders St Station. We had a 1 bed apartment that has a separate bedroom and a sofa bed in the lounge. We asked for a rollup bed for our 3 yr old and it was provided free of charge.

Rooms are large, well equipped with mini kitchen and 2 TVs. Hotel is very clean with friendly staff. The only downside is that there is no cafe attached to the hotel for breakfast but it's so close to the Southbank cafes it's not a real problem. Good rooms but don't expect hotel style service

“Excellent Accomodation, Service and Function facilities”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

I was extremely impressed with the apartments for myself and guests very modern, roomy and clean. The function room was well set up including audio and the function room service was excellent. Morning and afternoon teas were plentiful and "yummy" ... lunch well catered for all food preferences included. The staff customer service in this Hotel was exceptional, from the function and waiting staff, kitchen staff, nothing was a problem. The bar service excellent with them remembering our drink choice, the front reception brilliant offering suggestions, maps and taxi/car service. A lovely, safe, convenient location, wonderful morning walks along the river, close walking to great eating choices and into the city ... I thoroughly recommend Quay West.
Julie Sales Manager

Room Tip: Request a room over looking the River ... beautiful ...
