A particular feature of Melbourne, capital of Victoria, is that most of its city sightseeing attractions are within or close to the central business district.
So Melbourne hotels in the city centre may be the best place for you to book accommodation, Some of the finest Melbourne hotels are, in fact, within the city centre such as the National Trust-listed Windsor Hotel with its traditional Victorian architecture or the modern skyscraping Crown Towers by the Yarra River.
As well, there are the smaller, more intimate Melbourne hotels right in the heart of Melbourne or close enough to walk to.
Melbourne hotels and other accommodation choices
There is a wide range of choices in Melbourne hotels and other accommodation places. Some factors to consider about Melbourne hotels and other accommodation are type, facilities, location, and cost.
Type: Are Melbourne hotels or motels what you're looking for, or perhaps a bed and breakfast, an apartment, or a low-cost hostel?
Facilities: Do you need parking space, cooking facilities, extra bedroom or beds, airconditioning, room service, Internet availability or, particularly for business people, secretarial services including photocopying and fax? Do you want a place with an outdoor or indoor pool, or sauna, spa or gymnasium?
Location: Do you need a city centre location or will you be just as content with accommodation away from the city centre?
Cost: For some, this is an overriding factor in choosing Melbourne hotels or other accommodation.
