What a lovely hotel in the heart of the cbd area! We had a Next King room which was very spacious, the bed was firm and comfortable and the bathroom had a large shower, all nice and clean! Our booking included breakfast, we had a good selection to choose from and all very tasty. The hotel has a restaurant but there are so many lovely restaurants to go to nearby we were spoilt for choice. The staff were polite and friendly and we had a very enjoyable stay at Next Melbourne!
