"If car parking is essential, this hotel is the only one you want to stay. Forget the rest in Melbourne CBD. For those parking is not essential, I would suggest look for others especially for ladies. I don’t understand why there is no power point next to mirror for hair dryer or straightener. When there is only one mirror in the room. “If this is not important to you, this hotel is good”"

Everything was exceptional, from the beautiful hotel to the outstanding service we received throughout our stay. All of the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and obliging with every request we had. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their attention to detail made our experience truly unforgettable. Thank you to the entire Langham team for helping make my wife’s birthday so special. We thoroughly enjoyed celebrating this special occasion with all of you and creating such wonderful memories.
