Just thought this place was great… location, staff, breakfast cannot be faulted. Highly recommend this little Boutique Boudoir. more

We were going to Melbourne to see the Art Deco Exhibition at the National Gallery and some friends recommended the Albany. Reading the reviews we were a little nervous. I needn't have worried. The owners have obviously paid attention to past criticism. We had a huge front room in the Mansion section of the Albany. Spotlessly clean, freshly painted and... more

I'm afraid to say that The Albany is a wannabe "hotel" that is quite inaccurately represented on it's own website, and most sites I could find. Basically, it's a glorified hostel that just about makes it as a low grade motel. Hotel?? No way... They impose quite ridiculous conditions for booking cancellations, and this speaks volumes... is it because so... more

To call this a hotel is a shame. It is a roadside motel at best that offers nothing but headaches! Rooms overlook the parking lot with outdoor catwalks, and the rooms themselves are smelly, dirty and unsafe. Its debatable whats thinner the sheets or the walls.

The price is pretty cheap for this place. Let's break it down: Pros: - I find the location pretty good - The bed and pillows were... more

Stayed in a mansion room for a 1 night getaway with my mum. Room was nice, high ceilings and polished floorboards. Bathroom was a bit old and small, but beds were very comfortable. Free newspaper and breakfast included was a bonus, along with the free bottle of wine. Overall a pleasant experience, but definitely stay in a mansion room! more

This place is a dump from when you first step foot in to the moment you step out. the rooms are really bad, i wonder how can this place still be open......... more
