Really modern and comfortable stay in a building with great facilities. The highlights were the gym and pool, an actual air conditioned clean gym with machines that work. A separate cardio area with great views, and the pool was beautiful with outdoors hot tubs with city views. The flat itself was really clean when we arrived and we had everything we needed for the stay (little sachets of laundry powder and dish liquid which were topped up twice, so were our towels). The tv worked great and had all the apps you need and it was quiet, couldn’t hear neighbours. Basically exactly what we needed - feeling at home for an extended stay whilst exploring Melbourne

The only thing we can think of is that the pool and hot tubs had a lot of chlorine in, made our eyes sting a little and hair crispy (but maybe we’re a bit fussy with that). The pool was still very enjoyable

The room was a great size, clean, with everything we needed for the family holiday. The amenities are outstanding, albeit the pool was slightly too cold for our northern liking 😂 location is great with a short walk to trams, trains and other items of interest in the city. Coles close by, Flagstaff park (with a playground, vital for a toddler) close by, and some good Asian food options. All in all a great place to stay and would stay again.

Only one thing, and minor was the fan exhaust system is very loud in the bedroom and being north facing with the aircon in the lounge the room got a bit hot, but nothing major.

Location was superb. Had a kitchen stocked with all the appliances, etc. Bed comfy, spa area pretty, gym modern.

No chairs or sun chairs at the pool. Had to go back up to the room straight after swimming. The room would have been quiet enough, weren't it for some kind of air ventilation in the bedroom, not connected to aircon, which was extremely loud. We had no way of turning that off. The noise from the streets wasn't bad. Would recommend for a few days. We stayed three nights.

The Aspire was the highlight of our 3 week stay in Australia. A modern, spacious, spotlessly clean luxury high rise in the heart of the beautiful city of Melbourne with gorgeous city views from floor to ceiling windows from our apt on the 23rd floor. Like I said, FABULOUS. The pool, sauna, work-out rooms on the 9th floor are not to be missed. Living room couch very comfortable. My husband watched the superbowl while we were there and was in heaven. Wifi is fast and secure. Bed, pillows, linens all very comfortable. Bathroom/shower excellent. Kitchen well appointed. Concierge Staff members are so kind and helpful (shout out to Katherine!!) FYI: Check out the William Angliss School of Hospitality at the end of the block (2 min walk). Their cafe offers excellent food at great prices. You can eat brunch and take dinner back to your apt if you don't feel like cooking or eating out.

We found absolutely NOTHING to dislike

We got a 1 bedroom apartment. All facilities are there, namely: - big screen ftal TV with youtu2and Netflix access - separate bedroom - AC unit in living room - fully equipped kitchen with gas stove, fridge, kettle, microwave and even a toaster - additional single bed - a sofa - washing machine - an iron and ironing board etc. Location is great and it is 15-20 min from main sightseeing places and theaters. Coles supermarket is 7 min walking distance. Southern Cross train station is next to Coles, ie also 7 min walking distance. Very comfy debds and pillows. Warm inside. Melbourne Airport taxi ride was only 30 min and costs approx A$30. But be aware if you travel to/from another airport, ie Avalon Airport it will take you 1 hour and cost over A$200. Overall great value for money

Reception works only until 6 pm so if you arrive outside of their working hours you gotta call them for instructions to enter premises. There is no room cleaning, unless you stay for 6+ nights. We would just stick out our rabbish bags outside the room. No food inside, but since plenty of cafés and a kitchen is available, it was not. a problem.

We give Aspire 10/10. The reception staff were excellent, especially Catherine and Angelene, they would give us suggestions of where to visit and how to get there, they made our 21 night stay so much better. We loved our room on the 23rd floor. The spa and pool are fantastic with views with it being on the 9th floor. Our room was so good looking down at an interesting intersection, always something to look at. It was so good to have a kitchen and washing machine. The tall buildings at night are so pretty. We would never stay anywhere else if we return to Melbourne. Thank you for my birthday gift, very thoughtful. Thank you so much Catherine and Angelene we miss you already.

It would be very hard to fault anything at Aspire.

Catherine and the other girl who attended to us were very lovely and helpful. I also got to meet one of the housekeepers who was lovely. We stayed at a 1 bed appartment. The apartment was spacious and had a beautiful view. The best part of our stay was the hotel facilities. The sauna and jacuzzi were amazing, the steam room was another level 😅. The pool was a bit disappointing as it doesn't get deep. But it was lovely to relax at. The gym is well equipped and great for a daily workout. Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to use the BBQ area. But it was very spacious and it has an indoor area where you can enjoy your meal and company.

We received different information from different staff member. We had requested an early check in which was granted but when we got there it seem there was a problem. One of the staff members sort it out quickly and we only had to wait 10 min. She seemed a bit distressed with the situation. She was absolutely lovely and did her best to sort out the issue. Unfortunately, I forgot her name.

Great price point and room sizes for our family group of 5. The hotel got us too rooms in the end of a corridor which was great, meant we could go between with no fuss or other people around. The view was incredible, could see so much which was wonderful for introducing my family to Melbourne for their first trip there. The beds were comfortable, warm, good size. Good kitchen appliances and a lot of kitchen utensils should you need them.

The first night was very windy and the building creaked so loudly, was very hard to sleep with the noise. It was swaying not that you could feel but you could definitely hear. Some sound proofing in the walls between the beams would be good, though I’m no engineer to know if that possible, just idea :)

This property had everything we required for our 6 night stay in Melbourne. It is within easy walking distance from trains and trams, Southern Cross Station is only a 5 minute walk away. Marvel Stadium is also within easy walking distance. The cooking facilities are excellent, the beds comfortable, the apartment was clean and there was plenty of room in the bathroom/shower. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful, and happy to help with hints on how best to get to the places we were planning on visiting. As we were not there for an entire week, the apartment was not serviced, but when we ran out of toilet paper, the staff were happy to organise a few spare rolls. We pre-organised a late check-in (outside reception hours) and it was a simple process, even for two very weary travellers. There is a Coles supermarket nearby if you want to take advantage of having your own kitchen, but there are also plenty of eateries nearby. We loved the apartment, and will definitely return here when next in Melbourne.

Nothing.

This hotel is in a great location, close to the city center, and very convenient for transportation. The rooms are clean and tidy, with complete facilities and comfortable beds. The staff are friendly and provide attentive service. Although there is no breakfast, there are plenty of dining options nearby. Overall, it offers great value for money, and I highly recommend staying here!
