“Melbourne's grand hotel”

In a perfect prime location, Grand Hotel Melbourne is a beautiful wonderful stay: great spacious clean rooms, a kitchen for cooking, authentic vintage decor with historical atmosphere, a home-like environment and standout hospitality — a manager praised for complementary chocolates, a handwritten card and a housekeeper staying late for delayed arrivals. One nit: a stay with no room cleaning at all.
