We stayed here for two nights to get over our jetlag after emigrating here from the uk. The base was very good. Nice bright airy room, with kitchenette bit and nice spacious bathroom. There were plenty of milks, teas and coffees in the room, which was great, and a little squirty bottle of washing up liquid for your dishes etc.... more

Before the trip, this was my 3rd choice hotel but it's certainly my 1st choice now if I ever go back to Melbourne! First the good things about the place: - amazing price for a 2 bedroom apartment (just nice for a couple and 2 kids) from AsiaRooms.com - just across the road from Southern Cross Station where the Skybus... more

The hotel is very central being at the end of Collins Street just opposite Southern Cross Station. There are 2 tram stops right by the hotel so moving around Melbourne is extremely easy. We ended up paying for an upgraded room becuase room #1 was right at the back of the hotel which involved having to get a lift/stairs up... more

We chose this hotel for its location which was convienent and had a tram stop right in front of the hotel. However, upon check in, the staff was extremely rude before we even said a word. He snapped our booking sheet from my hands before i said "hi, checking in please'. The attitude of the staff ruined the environment of... more

Stayed at the hotel as part of the travel package booked through the travel agent. Location is great, on the other end of Collins St. near to Southern Cross terminal and the tram stop is just next to the hotel. Southern Cross has DFS which is a plus to shopaholics. The room we stayed was a studio apartment, with a... more

27/6/2008 We were in Melbourne visiting family and decided to stay downtown for the night as we had a night planned out in Southbank and a museum tour the next morning. We booked this hotel with lastminute.com.au “secret hotels” for $122 including parking for a four star hotel, club room, king bed. The hotel was adequate for that price but... more

My partner and I stayed at the Batman as a base for 6 nights while we looked for more long-term accommodation in Melbourne. This hotel was clean, comfortable, spacious and good value for money. It's only a couple of minutes walk from Spencer Street train station and even closer to the tram stop which is literally outside the front door.... more

We arrived at the hotel on Anzac Day and we planned to attend a AFL game at the MCG the next day. As soon as we arrived, we turned on the television to watch some of the game that was being played that day....but there was no signal. When we rang reception, they said that they had reported the fault... more

I have visited Melbourne many times and generally stay at the same hotel but this trip I travelled with my husband and two children so required family room accommodation. Batmans Hill on Collins was perfectly located and seemed to have quite a good reputation. We stayed 3 nights in a standard family room which was quite big enough. I requested... more
