Great place to stay. Centrally located to where we were going, making it easy to walk everywhere. Price is great with an excellent breakfast included. Only down side: Internet is very slow and bathroom doors close with a bang.

Couldn't have been more surprised by how close we were to everything in the city.So central for our needs.25 min walk to Marvel Stadium ,5minutes and your on southbank.
From our arrival to checking in ,staff were very friendly,our room was very clean,everything you need for a comfortable stay. Breakfast was more than adequate and again, the staff said good morning ,as they cleaned fresh tables for you to enjoy your breakfast.Car parking was easy and we look forward to booking again.

I've stayed many times at this hotel, and other Holiday Inn hotels in Australian and overseas, but this was easily the worst check-in experience - more than 20 minutes of waiting. Ignored the pre-booked parking as part of the booking and made us book via a QR code on the counter. Then when we returned from dinner it took 20 minutes to get into the room because the lifts were barely operating. No answer of the phone or the call button downstairs.

Clean and modern ambience. I like the area but the road in front is a busy highway. Other than that, I cannot fault Holiday Inn South banks.
5.0
A very pleasant one night stay and would visit again. The only downside was we intended to have an evening meal in the restaurant (as advertised) but found that this was not available. Having said that a very enjoyable stay

I have stayed here a few times and have normally loved it.
Not sure if they have had a change of staff but their service was really poor. Front desk staff were really not friendly.
House keeping didn’t clean our room, they just pulled out bedding up and took our towels and left us with none. Had to go to the front desk to get more as they would not bring us up any.
There was one guy collecting dishes from the breakfast who was very nice.

Accommodation just as we booked it online, friendly and helpful staff. Beds were comfortable, and it was quiet. Booked this online, thought the parking was included in the price, it wasn't. Parking available for $35 p/n
Would stay there again.

We love staying at Holiday Inn Express, Southbank. Whenever we come to the city for the night we stay here. It's clean, safe, great staff, the facilities are well looked after and the buffet breaky is always a winner!

The Holiday Inn Express Southbank is a modern, fresh, clean hotel well situated right behind the National Gallery of Victoria and Arts Centre for those seeing a concert or play.
Moreover, it is right behind the Southbank promenade of shops, bars and restaurants and only another few minutes stroll from there into the city.
It is particularly convenient for people driving into Melbourne with easy and fast access both into and out of the city.
The only single drawback from our stay was, on entering the bar area for a drink, every single table was filled with empty glasses and rubbish which had not been cleared away - even though there were only two tables with people sitting having a drink on a very quiet Saturday evening.
An otherwise excellent hotel was let down by either insufficient staffing or some very uninterested and or lazy staff rostered on that night.
That aside, I would certainly recommend this hotel.

A group travelling with 4 separate rooms, pleased we were all located on the same floor. Rooms were clean. A couple front of house staff need a little extra experience to have better empathy towards staff training as we all need to start somewhere, as well have more understanding to guess needs. Will recommend this place, would stay again. Thank you

The only thing was that no sheets were under the comforter and found but odd! Rest all was goos
10.0
Excellent central location and great value accommodation gif the price. Very clean, well equipped and functional room; I like the minimalism and how the hanging rail and shelf area for suitcase are tucked away from the rest of the room by the door and not in view! Very comfortable bed with choice of firm or soft pillows, and really good blockout blind so the room was very dark for sleep. Good breakfast included. This hotel is staffed by very helpful friendly staff; nothing a problem for them including looking after luggage before check in and after checking out, plus changed my room type with no fuss. Thoroughly recommend ⭐️
