I stayed in the Shoebox rooms and they are small, but super clean and all I needed for an overnight in Melbourne. Very convenient location near Southern Cross Station

Hi Kirst, Thanks so much for your 5* review!! So happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us! We hope to see you again soon! Warmest, The Best Western Melbourne City Team
Very convenient spot. Close to all major places in the CBD plus easy access to transport etc.
The downsize is that the bathroom/toilet is extremely small and hard for a big made person to have a shower or sit on the toilet seat.

Hi Traveler We are so happy you found our location to be convenient. We are sorry your experience was overshadowed by the room/bathroom size. We aim to be transparent in the sale of our 7 room types at the hotel, as we appreciate one size does not fit all and that the Best Western is very unique in bedroom styles and appointments. Given the opportunity we aim to remedy any guest needs that may not be met at the time, and we hope to have you stay with us again in the future, in a room category that is suited to your needs. Thank you for your review. Warmest regards The Best Western Melbourne City Team

Whilst the room wasn't large (as advised on their www), it covered the three most important things.
1/ It was always clean.
2/ The bed was comfortable, thus a good night's sleep.
3/ The shower was big enough to have a wash in without constantly bumping walls.
Would be happy to return.
