托拉諾酒店 (Tolarno Hotel)

I was looking forward to staying at the Tolarno Hotel after reading about the artists and artwork on display. But the room I was given was so dirty, and the smell was dreadful. I've been travelling from Sydney to Melbourne over a matter of 10 days and stayed in small motels and rooms above pubs, and all were spotlessly clean, so I was so disappointed to arrive at my final destination and have to leave the hotel and request a refund for the nights that I'd booked. There were stains on practically everything, the carpet was badly stained and rotten in certain areas, the shower screen, walls, skirtings, etc, needed a good clean and were so unhygienic, the TV had a thick layer of dust on the screen, and the blinds, which were broken, were thick with dust. The manager was very approachable and understanding and explained that cleaners had been in to do a deep clean and to try and eradicate the awful smell in the room coming from the bathroom, but obviously they hadn't sorted it. I'm sure there are a few rooms that are ok because I've since read some of the reviews, but the room I was given was really awful. He offered me another room later that evening, which was slightly better but still very dirty, and the sheets had stains on them, it was so bad that I had to check out early. It's such a shame because it could be a great hotel if the rooms were cleaned thoroughly and refurbished.

西式老酒店，很有古典風格，值得居住，房間陽光充足明亮，前台一個華人帥哥🤵非常專業，非常友善，點贊👍！

酒店距離聖基爾達海灘大約800米，附近飯店很多，出門左轉過路口還有個大Metro超市。酒店環境有精心設計，比較復古。樓梯地板踩上去會咯吱咯吱響。同樣晚間會鎖門，且沒有前台，入住需要打電話。

I’m not sure whether is from the hotel, but my partner got bitten by bed bugs from the hotel and the hotel staff is extremely unprofessional knocking the door 15 mins before checking out. This is clearly not for the weak hearted. Unpleasant experience would never come back.

it knows what it is, basic clean reasonable accommodation in a fantastic location. Not trying to be anything but it’s not. Old building of course could be done up but of course then all prices would go up equivalently so again and come back to the original point it’s simple basic accommodation that is useful when you need a quick night accommodation. Instructions were really good getting into the place late at night. The room was immaculately clean even if it was old. Overall would stay there if I needed accommodation for one night. I would suggest a touch expensive for what it is. 

Situated in an excellent location, close to restaurants bars and trams. Hotel had an original quirky style . Helpful and friendly staff on reception . Would stay again when in St Kilda area.

It was good for the price, although the hair dryer didn’t work and the window frames were dirty. The staff is very friendly and cosy.

Perfect location in St Kilda. Tram stop nearby and affordable parking. Room is a good size for two people. Artworks are a plus.

Service was fantastic.it was super quick and easy to check in and out. Loved the art too.

Hotel is old. Room painting is peeling. The painting in the room is artistic but scary 😱.
