I managed to pick up a 'winter warmer' deal off the Rendezvous website for $142. I suppose for that amount on a friday night it was okaaay, but for the regular price of $182 or whatever it is I would not be happy at all! Perhaps they just put us in the worst rooms of the hotel when you grab... more

Agree with most other reviews - the rooms are decorated well enough but are very small with no daylight and tiny bathrooms. The location is decent, but there are better values in Melbourne. The check in experience was horrendous - the staff was unable to find a room with even a minimal amount of daylight and the manager was rude... more

I visited Melbourne for the first time this year and took my chances with a booking on wotif.com, a priceline-equivalent website. Wotif has a mystery deal on Wednesdays, and since I knew nothing of Melbourne, I took a chance and ended up with a night at the Rendezvous for about $137.00 AUD (inclusive). The location was perfectly situated for the... more

Stayed in a "Commerce Room" at corporate rates... Which includes free internet and free buffet breakfast at The Grill restaurant. Room was clean, modern styling with warm chocolate hues and a small 32" LCD. Bed was comfortable, with a good range of pillows already on the bed. No need to call unless you're extra fussy and can't sleep without your... more

My wife and I stayed in room 544 during July. Let me first say all the other reports are accurate so I'm not going to ramble on. This is a nice hotel in a good location, but we must have had a room that hadn't been refurbished yet. There was scuff makes on the walls, but the room was very... more

I booked the Rendezvous through Wotif for a very good rate. The location cannot be faulted. As others have said, the hotel is in a very old building and the communal areas - lobby and atrium - are very lovely indeed. Some of the rooms have been recently refurbished and when you walk along the corridors they look smart and... more

I stayed at Rendezvous Melbourne on an overnight business trip. The hotel is absolutely beautiful, the public areas and conference rooms exude the old world charm of this wonderful heritage building. I stayed in a newly refurbished room which was modern and very well appointed (the bedroom & bathroom weren't large but had everything I required, and they were immaculate).... more

A great hotel, we have stayed here in standard rooms and now also a suite. Staff are always helpful and the place is always clean. more

We were attracted to the Rendezvous as it had been refurbished and affordable and as we had a 3 day seminar to attend (plus we had 2 extra days to shop) it was in a great convenient location with ease of access to southbank and obviously the city. We stayed in one of the refurbished rooms and it was okay... more
