Melbourne accommodation from AU$85

• Carlton: Adults will love a stay near Melbourne’s famous Little Italy and Carlton Gardens. And the Melbourne Museum, located in Carlton Gardens, is home to the Pauline Gandel Children’s Gallery and an IMAX theatre.
• Kilda: The suburb of St. Kilda is home to whole-family amusements like Luna Park, a 100-year-old theme park at the edge of Port Phillip Bay. It’s also a great place to watch boats in the marina, as well as browse shops.

• QT Melbourne is a luxe, artsy hotel with modernist vibes in Melbourne’s CBD. Not only is it conveniently close to Her Majesty’s Theatre and Bourke Street Mall, it also offers top-notch relaxation with rainfall showerheads, in-room espresso makers, and 24-hour room service.
• The classic elegance of The Hotel Windsor, a short walk from Queen Victoria Market and the City Museum of Old Treasury, matches its 19th-century exterior. Though the hotel’s styling is timeless, its comforts are ultramodern, from luxury bedding to the on-site restaurant and bar.

• Art Series – The Olsen is an artfully decorated boutique hotel in South Yarra. Soundproofed rooms featuring kitchenettes and rainfall showerheads might make you want to spend the evening in with your sweetheart. But if you decide to go out, grab dinner and drinks at the groovy and retro Leonard’s House of Love.
• At The Como Melbourne MGallery by Sofitel, bathrobes, slippers, and pillowtop beds invite you to get comfy, while the rooftop terrace and onsite garden are special spots to steal kisses. If you’re up for a drink, try the SO Local Smoked Negroni at SOBar, the hotel’s tapas bar.

• Shadow Play by Peppers is a seriously swish aparthotel just 10 minutes' walk to all the high-rollin' action. Try your luck at the blackjack table or the pokies, then hotfoot it back to your posh digs and order a midnight feast from room service. With a pool, hot tub, bar and restaurant, odds are you’ll want to stay longer.
• The Grand Hotel Melbourne is exactly that — grand. Oozing old-world charm, this hotel is just a short walk to the blackjack tables. Kick back in the indoor swimming pool, order a cheese platter at their fancy-pants restaurant, or cook up a storm in your apartment. Yup, you’ll have your own kitchen here.

• The Westin Melbourne offers a drool-worthy, cooked-to-order breakfast that'll have you waking up with the chooks to be first in line. Located in the thick of the action, you can mosey on back for a dip in the indoor pool as often as your heart desires. Wine and dine the night away alfresco-style in the on-site restaurant, Allegro.
• The Langham, Melbourne: Even the biggest morning grump will turn into a chirpy early bird with the delish, cooked-to-order brekkie on offer here. And it's not just the food that's pretty special. The location, the pool and spa, the marble staircase, the cascading fountains, the fancy chandeliers … You might want to leave your trackie-dacks at home.

• Sweeping city and river views make Crowne Plaza, Melbourne one of the city's best digs for compulsive window gazers. After a big day exploring, there’s no better way to unwind than by sampling a few of the bartender's concoctions in the ultra-cool Dive Bar. In the morning, order brekkie in bed and drink in those vistas. And loads of coffee.
• Expect to pick your chin up from the floor at the Pan Pacific Melbourne. And it's not just the jaw-dropping views that’ll impress you — this entire place is seriously lush. Don't waste all your time staring out the window, though. Everything Melbourne has to offer is right on your doorstep, so get out and explore!

• The PARKROYAL Melbourne Airport offers a welcome refuge after being cramped up in a giant pressurised tin can for hours. Stretch out those weary muscles in the indoor pool. Or, get your blood flowing with a power sprint in the 24-hour gym. Afterwards, replenish those calories with a drink at Bar Airo.
• They're an attentive bunch at the Quest Melbourne Airport. They've literally thought of everything. Free airport and shopping centre shuttles? Tick. Laundry to wash your smelly socks? You bet. Outdoor barbie to grill a snag or two? Now you’re talking! And, to top it all off, you'll have your own apartment with a full kitchen. Don’t worry, there's a restaurant on-site if there’s no way you’re cooking on holidays.

Found a better deal on your hotel? No problem. Wotif's Price Promise will match the price and refund the difference, just so long as all the conditions are the same.
