The room having a kitchenette with a microwave and kettle, etc. was very nice and the room was spacious. But the heater was difficult to control (it won't operate the usual way) and to make it work, I had to the staff. The safe inside the room did not work and they had to send someone to repair but after spending long hours, it seemed to work again at first but failed once again. Other than these I had a good time.

The accommodation was adequate. Whilst everything had been cleaned, there was grime built up on grouting and around the fridge seal that wasn’t great. In the kitchenette, a refillable pump was provided with dishwashing liquid but the contents was weird. It had separated into two levels and I couldn’t bring myself to use it. I didn’t use or even look at the kitchenwares. I had brought my own cutlery, etc.
Unfortunately the place is very dated with thin walls, next door’s television blasted through so I wore headphones.

I’m a little baffled by all the 5 star reviews. While the location is amazing and the staff were very helpful, the rooms are rather average. At first glance they appear to be well-cleaned, but looking closer there was dust and little bits of rubbish gathered on the carpet around the edges of the room, the curtains had huge tears in them, there were marks all over the walls and there was dirt/mould in the shower grout. Overall it just felt old and grotty. Thankfully the towels and bedding appeared clean. The bathroom is very dated and rudimentary at best and the toilet didn’t flush properly. I’m glad we were only staying for one night and will book elsewhere next time. 3 stars is probably being generous and is for the location and the staff.

Good kitchenette; close to restaurants - good, but that also means there can be some late night noise on the weekends so take earplugs. Close the Aust Catholic Uni, parliament house and easy walking to Fec Square and the National Gallery of Victoria. The Little Gordon cafe next door is excellent for coffee, brekky n lunch.

The lovely man who checked in (unfortunately I didn’t grab his name) my mum and myself for our one night stay made our experience 10/10. It would be the hotel’s loss to ever lose an employee like him! Super friendly service!

The room itself was perfect size for my mum and I. The staff organised 2 single beds for us before arriving without any hassle, along with the extra towels we requested!

We will absolutely be staying here again in the future.

Convenient location near the princess theater. We stayed only one night while in Melbourne to see the show Annie. The man who checked us in (cannot recall his name but he was from Spain) was very nice and provided a list of restaurants in the area that stay open late so we can get dinner. Room was dated but comfortable and warm with good working heater. Would definately stay there again when in town for another show.

Great location for theatre district/Chinatown

Very clean and nicely renovated hotel well located near Melbourne public transport, theatre district and numerous restaurants/cafes for all day dining. Bed was a little hard but OK. Checked in early (prior to theatre matinee session) and Lily (Guest Services) kindly found us a room that was available for early check-in. Tissue box in bathroom only had one tissue in it but Lily happily provided us with another box when the matter was reported. The complimentary tea/coffee/hot chocolate station in the reception sitting area is a great idea and well appreciated. The gift provided to us by the Hotel for our special occasion was unexpected and a nice touch.

Good choice with a decent basic hotel in Melbourne

Fantastic location if you need to stay in the hotel, walking distance to public transportation and restaurants just outside your hotel. It is located in the \"elegant\" section of China town near the Parliament.
Spacious room, adequate amenities, with the right price, it is a very good choice rather than pay much more in the old hotels.

In a position on the edge of the vibrant China town area very convenient for the free city centre tram network and adjacent to many great dining options.
A lovely small apartment hotel with friendly personal service.
The rooms are well thought out with a kitchen and dining area and everything you need to self cater if you wish.
Great value compared with larger hotels in the crowded central tourist areas. Everything is accessible for tourists on foot or using the trams.

Experience at City Limits Hotel.

Stayed for 6 nights. Good room service, hotel and room clean. Security is excellent. At the Reception, great people to always welcome with a smile even when cheked in at 2 am and very helpful. Vicinity to city centre is great. Walking distance to Tram less than 2 mins. Organised own breakfast. If a mini electric stive and a pan could have been provided would have just been superb. My bad, i did not ask for. Great experience at City Limits.

Haven in the city

This is my new favourite inner Melbourne hotel. It's up the end of Little Bourke, which is quiet but still close to everything. It has 24 hour reception, and the lovely man checking me in was chatty, informative and super-friendly. He went out of his way to check me in early. There is free (good) coffee in the lobby and filtered water on top. The room itself was spacious with a King-size, super-comfy bed, and everything else you would expect for a 4-star kind of experience. I like the relaxed, non-fussy vibe. And it's next door to a great Melbourne cafe where breakfast is available 7 days a week.

This was my second stay here, and once again, it was a very pleasant experience. The hotel was clean and well-maintained, with friendly staff who were always happy to help. A nice perk was the no extra charge coffee machine in the guest lounge.

Price-wise, rates can fluctuate depending on the season and local events, but anything under AUD 150 per night is very reasonable for what’s on offer here. Overall, I had no complaints and would definitely recommend it for a comfortable, hassle-free stay.

Nice, simple no-nonsense small hotel with big clean rooms. Next to a lot of bars and restaurants. Great for solo travellers. My room had also a small kitchenette with a microwave, sink and some plates and cutlery, which was nice. Only problem I had was the exhaust fan didn’t work well, so bathroom would fog up a bit, but fades away quickly

We stayed at City Limits for 4 days and would definitely recommend. The staff were always super lovely and greeted us every time we left or returned. It is in the perfect location for both expensive and cheap eats. The street noise at some points of the stay was noticeable, mostly surrounding restaurants throwing glass in their recycling bins or car horns, but we were aware of this from other reviews prior to booking. Easy to get everywhere needed. For the price, it can’t be beat!

Exceptional value for money here - everything was better than expected.

Fantastic location! Right near some excellent restaurants and bars.

My ONLY complaint was the bright, flashing light on the TV when it was off. It would have been nice to be able to unplug it but I couldn't get to the plug so I threw a couple of towels over the whole thing, lol.

So great otherwise; would definitely stay there again.
