Guest Reviews

• Daniel (10/5): Great location + fantastic facilities - Very central Pillows were very thin and uncomfortable
• Nathan (9/5): - Location and size
• Mary (8/5): - After reading the reviews, my expectations were not high. I was pleasantly surprised at how cosy & comfortable the apartment was. FYI- this is not a hotel but an apartment in a residential building. This was no bother for us. The location is awesome, the view was beautiful. Very clean & tidy. Good pricing. Nice layout. The beds were Goldulocks standard. Too hard, too soft, ahh, just right ;) It was a pleasant stay. One mishap. A broken dining room chair.
• David (8/5): -
• Leah (9/5): -
• Tania (7/5): Great facilities in a fabulous location. Very clean and had everything we needed. - Location. Facilities. Layout perfect for our family. No WiFi. Beds seemed a little cheap. A bit of a pain to leave with car. Had to drive out and then go back up to leave keys.
• Hayley (8/5): - Great location, close to everything, really enjoyed the pool, spa and sauna and the views are beautiful Needs a really good clean, particularly carpets, walls and skirting boards but sheets and kitchen were clean
• Mark (8/5): - Location was fantastic and the pool area was amazing Had to hand my photo ID to receive keys for check-in at convenience store opposite the apartment building
• Katrina (7/5): - Location Could do with a refresh , No tea/coffee provided. Getting keys for the apartment is a bit of a hassle as you need to find parking.
• Joanna (10/5): -
• Senarathna (10/5): -
• Paul (8/5): - Good location, great view, comfortable beds. Master bedroom bed frame is very squeaky and wobbly. The mattress and pillows were very comfortable but the bed squeaked every time you moved.
• Susan (7/5): - Beautiful views in a lovely building. Location perfectly placed for our events. Beds in the second room were extremely uncomfortable, new mattresses would be good. Some areas were dirty, needs a deep clean.
• Karen (9/5): Superb - Location and bunk beds in second room Mattresses were very soft - but that’s also personal preference
• Kahurangi (8/5): The location was excellent, the host was easy to contact and the apartment was well appointed - The beds were the only issue, the mattresses were very soft.
• Shane (8/5): Really loved the location and views. Excellent but a few things like furniture could be improved. - Location and views were excellent. Easy to get to main parts of Melbourne. The property had cleanliness issues, stained bedcover, stained carpets, used the sofa-bed and not vacuumed and furniture was what we considered cheap. Main bedroom bed was squeaky. For the cost of the apartment, some better quality furniture would be an improvement. WIFI was flakey at times. All that said it was very good!
• Anna (9/5): Nice place, nice view & location. - Location & clean There was no hair dryer & not enough towels for shower
• Izawani (8/5): Very good - I loved the location as it was close to public transport. Also, it was easy driving to South Yarra as I had meetings there. Excellent communication with staff as they went above and beyond to cater for our late check-in. Clear instructions were given. Would stay here again next time! Both bathrooms needed thorough cleaning. The fan was not working in both bathrooms. The bathtub was blocked. Stove range-hood needs cleaning.
• Brittany (7/5): Excellent location, great apartment, needs a little TLC. - Location was excellent, facilities / building was lovely, so nice. Apartment was great, few things that weren’t as comfortable or up to the quality we thought. Few items in the apartment that need some attention; broken toilet seat, swollen door (couldn’t close properly), queen bed frame was unstable/very squeaky, making for a rough night sleep, front door slams. All in all, it was great but for the price we paid, these finer attention to details matter.
• Nick (5/5): Passable - Pool was great. Aircon worked well in the 2 rooms covered, but not well enough to cover the other rooms without aircon. Ensuite shower was great, even if it was arranged so the ensuite was in the 2nd bedroom. West-facing main bedroom with no air-conditioning and a very very very soft bed. The room was a sauna in the summer afternoon sunlight, even with the thin blockout blinds down, and never really quite cooled down despite air-con on in main living area. We ended up sleeping in the bunk beds in the second room because the second bedroom had a split cycle aircon unit, as well as an ensuite.
• Chloe (8/5): Perfect location, great for families - Great location, great view, lots of space Bits of rubbish on the floor from previous guests, carpet very stained
• Joanne (9/5): Lovely apartment in good location - Location Views Facilities One set of keys for family of 4.
• Lee (10/5): Exceptional -
• Annabel (8/5): Very good -
• Craig (8/5): Very good - Access to building facilities was limited (gym, rooftop etc)
• Melanie (4/5): Great location & central , good communications with managing body - Unit needs a good clean - carpets all stained , fridge needs defrosting. Beds & couch are very uncomfortable - sagging mattresses pillows aweful
• Jacob (4/5): was a little painful getting keys and the room was quite dirty. stained carpets and furniture. - it kept the rain off had to drag bags around as there was no option to leave bags at reception prior to checkin. Checkin was in a diffent location
• Kathie (7/5): Great location 👌 needs some TLC - Location was fabulous, right across the road from the Crown where we spent the majority of our stay. Apartment was spacious with kitchen and two bathrooms. Pool access was great and the lounge and BBQ area near the pool were a bonus. The apartment needs some TLC. Carpets are stained, pillows and matresses aren't great and some kitchen essentials would be handy for cooking. With some little upgrades this apartment could be really nice.
• Matt (9/5): Amazing apartment in a spectacular location. - Amazing location central to Southbank and the view was stunning. Two bathrooms were a bonus and an open space to take in the views were The mattresses on the bunk were a bit thin.
• Jonathan (8/5): Very good -
• Morgananne11 (8/5): Top location! - Fantastic location, within walking distance of lots of major attractions and public transport links. The building feels nice and new, clean etc. Swimming pool was fantastic, awesome views. Easy check-in/check out process. The actual apartment was 'basic' considering quality of the building it was in. Windows in the bedrooms didn't seem to seal shut and given its location, it was very noisy outside. Blinds have a 2 inch gap between them (2 blinds per window) which let a lot of light through. Pillows felt cheap, even with 2 Pillows they went flat when you laid on them, beds not that comfortable, very squeaky, couldn't move without making loud noises, the towels were small and single ply toilet paper. Full kitchen but lacking basic pantry ingredients (there was only a can of spray oil). Would still stay again - but would probably need to bring some items from home to make my stay more comfortable.
• Mike (10/5): PRIME LOCATION MELBOURNE CBD - The view is outstanding, I grew up in Melbourne and have stayed all over the city, with that said for the price, this is outstanding 👏 room with a balcony level with crown casinos roof you can see all the way to the mountains and beyond. Secruity is second to none including the free car park, so if you have your pride and joy with you this is the one!! There was nothing to dislike.
• Anonymous (6/5): Great location - Location and apartment tower Beds were terrible as was the couch and sitting area.
• L.sattout (10/5): Exceptional - Sauna, steam & pool access was great No access to the gym
• Daniel (9/5): Perfect location, great facilities and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend - The location was excellent. Walking distance to DFO, Bourke Street Mall, Rod Laver Arena etc. Public transport right at the doorstep too. Good facilities in the apartment. We used the pool, spa and sauna every night which we loved. Easy access to the apartment. The view was amazing! The bed in the main bedroom was not very comfortable and was very squeaky. Apart from that minor issue, we really enjoyed our stay.
• Corey (9/5): Will stay again - Location and facilities were excellent We liked everything and have no complaints but a couple of pool specific towels and a some face wash cloths would be a very welcome addition.
• Keith (10/5): Exceptional - Great location and tidy apartment The mattresses could be of better quality. The oven exhaust was not working.
• Darren (8/5): Very good -
• Natasha (10/5): It is an amazing apartment in perfect location. - The location is perfect. Everything was so close by, especially if you wanted to dine on Southbank. Will hopefully be back again. I really couldn't fault anything but if I had to it would be maybe more comfortable beds.
• Tracy (8/5): Stunning apartment in a great location. - Beautiful apartment with stunning views of the city. The apartment had everything we needed for our short stay, including a washing machine. Great location, very close to the river. Lots of restaurants and takeaways close by. Netflix was a bonus. Key collection process was difficult. We booked last minute, arrived off our flight and made our way to collect the keys from the 'secret' location. Had to download the instructions and property rules, however my phone was getting low on battery and it was a little stressful. When I finally found the code to give to the person who was giving me the keys, it turned out the keys weren't there. Had to wait for someone to deliver the keys - it took 1.5 hours all up. Couldn't access the gym room and the hallways and foyer (not the apartment itself) had a very strong chemical odour. The host did try to rectify the access to the gym, however it was too late by the time we'd heard back.
• Ji (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ronnie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Shane (7/5): Good -
• Rhonda (10/5): Spectacular view and great location - Best view in melbourne. Great location. Lovely having 2 full bathrooms. The host was very fast in replying to any questions we had. The elevator system was amazing once you worked it out - faster than most 3 floor buildings that i have been in - and very rarely stops to pick up other passengers during your 30+ floors trip. Pool/sauna/steam room is definitely a bonus - but pity we did not have access to gym. The instructions were clear but they were sent via such a large document that you need the dropbox app to open it, which can be challenging when you are travelling - and it was too large to email to have on my phone. Also so many pages - so cumbersome to print out. Perhaps convert to a smaller file. Bottle disposal was inconvenient - not allowed to be discarded on floor - needed to take it downstairs and ask reception to open up waste area. With such a lovely place, it was a pity that the bed mattress quality was poor (both bedrooms). However the positives definitely out weigh the negatives and we hope to make this our regular place for melbourne trips.
• Elzynia (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing location right behind crown. Views are spectacular. Kitchen is fully equipped. Appropriate changes have been made to include top sheets, proper doonas and a spare blanket on each bed. Everything was clean and immaculately presented, check in/out instructions easy to follow. We had no toilet paper in either bathroom when we arrived, but this was rectified quickly after I sent a message. This was obviously just an oversight by housekeeping.
• Sue (9/5): Great apartment, Great views. Great location and great value - Great views. Great location. Very close to Crown & Southbank. Clean . Comfortable. Great for a group or a family. Being in a residential apartment building there is no bag drop facility if you arrive before check in but we worked it out
• Jeffrey (9/5): Good value for money considering location, clean, comfortable and tidy with modern facilities - Great location and has all facilities, clean and quiet N/a
• Eddie (10/5): Exceptional - Everything the apartment was clean and great Nothing to dis like
• Evangeline (8/5): Amazing views and great location - The location was perfect. Very close to Crown Casino, Restaurants, Cafes, DFO, Public transport, Yarra River & Eureka Tower. The apartment is on level 37. The view is spectacular especially at night when the Crown Casino fire show is on display. The beds was not comfortable especially the queen bed. You can feel the springs. Also there wasn't a flat top sheet. Comforter bedding was used instead of duvets. We really felt the cold. It wasn't warm enough. Duvets should be used instead of Comforters for a place like this. We also didn't have hot water. This should have been checked by the cleaner or the manager.
• Harley (10/5): Exceptional -
• Scott (7/5): Good - Stunning views. Modern apartment. Secure parking included. Good facilities including pool, spa, sauna. No top sheets on beds. Thin mattresses on beds. Poor positioning of AC unit. Instructions should be a lot clearer re carpark address location. Information re key collection needs to be sent out much earlier (at least 24 hours prior as most people aren't checking emails all the time whilst on holidays - a text message should be sent to alert an incoming email). This would allow for planning when there is limited street parking in the area. Better still, why not simply have the keys collected at the reception desk of the Prima Apartment building like at any other hotel??? Even the staff at the Prima Apartments were mystified as to this means of key collection. Made the whole experience feel a bit clandestine having to go into a nearby convenience store and provide a secret code!! Finally, the complex has a name: Prima Apartments, so why call it Next to Crown? It's actually across the road too.
• Anonymous (10/5): great stay, probably just needs another key - great property with great views and nice and tidy apartment only 1 key was a little bit of a pain
• Kate (7/5): Top spot in Melbourne - Lovely spa/pool, great location, amazing view and good value with the free parking. only one set of keys which are required to access all areas of the building. The couch and mattress were not very comfortable.
• Luke (9/5): Superb -
• Christopher (10/5): Exceptional - Apartment was clean, modern, amazing view from the balcony and fantastic location
• Inga (9/5): Superb -
