Crest On Barkly Hotel is located right behind No. 1 St Kilda Road Melbourne. Just 8 minutes from Melbourne's Central Business District. St Kilda Road is recognised as one of the most prestigious business locations in Melbourne.
Melbourne's famous trams run past the door ready to take you to those marvellous Melbourne attractions you've heard about. St Kilda, the hub of Melbourne tourism with beaches, Albert Park Lake, the Grand Prix circuit, Luna Park, Aquatic Centre, arts and crafts markets and famous cosmopolitan Acland Street are all just a short walk from the Crest On Barkly Hotel.
Our room was comfortable & clean.
However we had to get a replacement power board as the one in the room was faulty. There was a large amount of leaking each time we showered and the bath did not drain quickly so there was water build up.
The setting on fridge was up high so ever thing was frozen in the fridge. The front desk staff on Saturday were very helpful.

Excellent service from Caroline. Breakfast options lacking. Room maintenance needs improving.
