特別特別好,服務非常到位,房間也很舒服,像家裡一樣。可以説,這是我全世界住過的最好的酒店體驗之一。 衹要英語流利,體驗絕對一流。 設備很齊全,有洗衣烘乾機,基本告別臟衣服。 和隔壁的餐廳有合作,可以送餐上門。 對面就是植物園,空氣清新,也有陽台,很舒服。

From the pre arrival communication through to check out our whole experience was great. The room itself was beautiful, comfortable, practical and clean. Quality fittings throughout. Staff all super helpful and location beyond lovely. We did a mixture of work and social on our stay and found this hotel and location great for both. Can’t wait to go back

This is my second time staying at United Places, and once again, everything was absolutely perfect. The service is impeccable — every staff member is genuinely warm, thoughtful, and professional. The room is spacious, beautifully designed, and fully equipped with everything I could possibly need. The in-room dining service makes the entire experience effortless and delightful. The modern interior design creates such a sense of calm and comfort — it’s incredibly quiet and relaxing (aside from the occasional sound of running water from the upstairs room). A huge thank-you to every member of the team — you’ve truly elevated my experience in Melbourne to the next level. As long as I continue visiting this city, United Places will always be my first choice for a short stay.

Our experience was exceptional from start to finish. The hotel itself is super dialed in, contemporary, welcoming and beautifully appointed. Proximity to the gardens, tan and restaurants/cafes was great. The staff were incredible - so accommodating and eager to make our stay as seamless as possible. Such a personal vibe. We will definitely come back!

Its clear from the moment you arrive at United Places this is no ordinary stay I was greeted by chic friendly staff followed by thoughtful touches like an artisanal cookie and fruit infused water after check in, which made a lovely way to start the experience every morning a beautifully packaged breakfast bag arrives at the door with assorted pastries, a baguette, and high quality jams, this was followed by a personalized delivery of granola with milk of choice, custom coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice, its the kind of attention to detail that sets this place apart! the decor is nothing short of exquisite, you can sense every detail from the luxurious bedding to the high end culinary ware is carefully considered then theres the shower itself is a spa like experience with two massive rainwater shower heads running simultaneously, everything here is of the highest quality then the in room kitchen is another unexpected delight that makes for a relaxing night of cooking but back to the staff, any request is a can do response and this is simply the standard room located across from the Royal Botanic Gardens and just a few tram stops from the CBD United Places is a sanctuary seamlessly blending boutique luxury with home like comfort.. I absolutely loved my stay here

We really enjoyed our time at United Places Hotel, it was perfect for us as we like to have a bit more space than a hotel room but with the services of a hotel, like room service, daily make up. The breakfast goodies were delicious and we liked having our own kitchen area. Having a balcony overlooking the gardens made our stay in Melbourne more relaxing. We loved walking though the botanic gardens to go into the center as it was a nice reprieve from busy Melbourne. Great little restaurants & cafes just close by as well. All the staff we really friendly, thank you for a great stay.

We had one night at the U.P. in the 2 BR apartment to see the Yayoi exhibition. It was a beautiful space, with views to the treetops in the botanic gardens across the road, with comfortable rooms and beds. The best thing really was the staff; they were on top of everything, very welcoming, helpful and interested in what we were doing, without being intrusive. Nathan, the manager, is a great communicator and leads a fabulous team. It was always nice to walk in and be greeted by the person at the front desk as we went to and from our rooms, this made it feel homely and nice.

One of my favourite hotels in the world. Truly unique with the best service. A home away from home. The views and the location are amazing and a celebration of Melbourne and South Yarra. The rooms are modern and comfortable and so enjoyable to spend time in. I love the pastry bag left on a peg outside the door each day. Thank you UP.
