Why it made our top 3
We compared 13 eligible hotels in Melbourne. On review score, this one shared tenth place.
It is our Budget choice because €140.76 a night was the lowest eligible reference price after the upscale pick was set aside. A central address and a pool at that price explain why it made the list.
