We recently spent 2 nights at the Lyall, and while the staff were efficient, friendly and professional, the hotel itself is looking tired and dated. Our room (which was upgraded) was OK, but small, and again, everything is looking run down and shabby. The carpet was badly stained and the bathrooms not what you would expect for this price point.... More

Really enjoyed my stay in South Yarra - so much more satisfying than in CBD. Wonderful staff, spacious rooms, outstanding breakfast, wifi. My only complaint was being placed in the farthest room at the back of the hotel, I was subjected to some pretty outrageous construction noise from next door and while I cannot fault the hotel for a neighbor's...

My wife and. I stayed recently for 10 Days in Melbourne seeing and catching up with old friends. Having spend some days downtown in another 5* star property, enduring slow service and extreme high charges for breakfast and wifi , it was refreshing to arrive at a privately managed property with all trimmings of personal und friendly service. The entire... More

My husband and I love this place! We have been four times and will definitely return again in the future. We have tried numerous places whenever we have the opportunity to escape the kids but this is our firm favourite. The staff are attentive without being overbearing, the spa is gorgeous and the rooms are spacious, well presented and clean.... More

The hotel offers everything a small boutique hotel could without sacrificing the experience, as large chains do. I am not a fussy traveler and I spent most of my... More

We stayed here for two nights in January at the time of our daughter's wedding. The staff were attentive, helpful- nothing was too much trouble - and helped to make this a very memorable stay. The location - 2 minutes from the tram into central Melbourne - is superb and its located in a quiet side street. Not to be... More

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Lyall Hotel and Spa while we were in Melbourne before touring further north. We could not fault the hotel or their staff. Their welcoming attitude was genuine and we felt comfortable before we were even shown to our room. The hotel is not large but has a genuine... More

Almost everything was perfect but unfurtunally the receptionist and bell man had to serve breakfast. Service was good but would be better if was a waitress just for that. The location is great, great shops near by. Rooms are amazing, perfect size.

The hotel was lovely however our room was a little tired and probably needed a new bed and a coat of paint. The main charm of the hotel is the friendly staff who instantly make you feel at home. Was a little disappointed with the champagne bar as there wasn't a lot of choice even with the French champagne. Unfortunately... More
