Great stay at Imagine Lighthouse. Amazing skyline views from the Sky Apartment, comfortable and spacious. Staff were fri
Pros:

Stayed in a Sky Apartment at Imagine Lighthouse and loved it. The view from the floor to ceiling panoramic windows was incredible, Melbourne skyline day and night. Felt like a real apartment with a full kitchen and laundry, not just a hotel room. Staff were really friendly and helpful throughout the stay, and Used the pool and gym too. Would book again

Cons:

Nothing, everything was Good.

Not bad was comfortable enough and in a good location just lacked cleanliness
Pros:

Location and facilities

Cons:

Cleanliness was a bit of an issue as our towels had stains on them as did the floor in the bedroom and bathroom tiles
The balcony door was very difficult to shut and had to slam it

Clean, comfty, and central
Pros:

Great value for money. Really comfty bed with amazing views in the city centre with lots of food nearby. Kitchen facilities + laundry were very handy. Staff were helpful and everything super clean.

Cons:

It’s feels like a generic hotel, rather than homely or unique.

Very convenient location.
Pros:

Very convenient in the heart of the city and lots of food locations available, specially if you like Asian food and hot pot.

Cons:

The bathroom was a tiny bit small and I didn’t have a microwave but there was plenty of food options.
