Kimberley Gardens Hotel, Serviced Apartments and Serviced Townhouses

Many things:

- Plenty of old school charm if you know what you are looking at.
- properly built around a fairly disused middle of property greenhouse garden type courtyard nothing too spectacular yet plenty of tables and chairs to sit out there and relax.
- public pool and spa were operational pool not exactly heated yet in the warmer months this time of year having a bit of a cooler yet not cold nor too cold etc pool was welcome and of course the spa is literally attached to the pool for quick and easy swapping to the warmer heated spa option.
-Both the swimming pool and the spa were clean yet the spa was a little on the slightly foamy from whatever cleaning products they use on it yet that was easily settled by just not walking the distance to the spa jets button on the other top side of the shallow end wall.
- Rooms were plenty spacious, everything available just tucked away in cupboards which with a 3 and 1/2 yr old boy wasn’t the end of the world actually helped with less things to grab etc
- brass door lock on the inside of the room didn’t work meaning our boy could reach the handle and easily could get the better of us if we let our guard down too much and just walk clean out of the room luckily hotel halls and corridors are quite large and not straight out onto Inkerman St lol
-close enough to toorak rd for our 9am Friday morning appointment at the australian/chinese consulate for travel document final processing sighting our son for stamp of republic of china travel document no visa required as he was born here and wife has PR citizenship ceremony offered yet her own country revoke her own citizenship if she takes on ours so PR was the way for us.
- Digressing lol back to the review, close enough to Lygon street, Chapel Street, Carlisle Street Acland Street, the city, short enough drive to docklands to ride the reopening night of the Melbourne Star Observation Ferris Wheel.

Location

The Layout, the Room, the access availability.
The cleanliness of most of the Room

Loved the central location - okay we were trying to stay close to my mother's nursing home in East Malvern but Kimberly Gardens was a great compromise.

Lots of kitchen gear to manage in-room self-catering.

Could it become our go-to place to stay in Melbourne?

Great accommodation for the South Eastern Melbourne. Clean safe neighbourhood and not far from the beach. Rooms were normal size and very clean. Access was easy.

Easy parking on site. Good size room with balcony. Well appointed, nice touch of chocolates and biscuits. Surprisingly nice complex mix of residential and hotel. Works well for easy access to beachside suburbs

Convenient location great price great parking

Beautiful, large room with a very comfortable bed and spa.

We have stayed here a few times in the past and return because we think it is very good. There is easy parking, the staff are very welcoming and it is close enough to walk to many restaurants and shops. If you don’t want to walk there is tram and train services reasonably close by. We really like the indoor pool and the spa in the room we had.
