Stamford Plaza Melbourne

Stamford Plaza Melbourne

10/10 Excellent
"I've always wanted to stay at the Stamford Plaza since I started working around the area in the early 2000s. It did not disappoint. A little old style Melbourne. It reminded me of hotels we've stayed at in New York and San Francisco. The king suite was well appointed and room service was pretty good. "
