Modern efficiency in Docklands waterfront
Opened in early 2010, the Travelodge Docklands is located in the heart of the up-and-coming waterfront district, a few short miles from Southern Cross Station and downtown Melbourne. The property is uber-modern: sleek lines and colorful furniture characterize the lobby and all of the rooms. Rooms come standard with spacious work areas. Breakfast is available for purchase in the guest lounge every morning.

Very good, but ...
This is an excellent hotel with great location for conference attendees. There is pedestrian bridge between hotel and the main train station. Airport gound transport is conveniently located very close to the train station. They charged extra for internet. They do not have gym in the hotel. I had to pay 15 AUD to hotel to go to nearby YMCA. If you directly go to YMCA, they charge 20 dollars. Breakfast was included in my package but I have eaten better breakfast before.

Visiting for a freind's 40th birthday party
Docklands location is good, but a visitor not familiar with the area might find it tough to get to the Docklands proper, or Southbank proper, as both are a short walk away, no clear directions in the lobby/room, and there isn't much in the immediate area. Hotel staff are very pleasant and helpful. Even though there were two of us in our room, we would need to call for the second washcloth and hand towel every day of our stay. You could get ice in a bowl by calling the front desk, but once our order was forgotten. Very helpful on return arrangements. (trip w/in a trip store baggage) It was noted that there wasn't a Gideon's Bible in the room.

Time-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
Worth noting is that the Southern Cross Station is a short walk away, and the city tram is a block away. Melbourne has a very good transit system, and even though there isn't much in the direct area, it's just a short trip to most everywhere in the city.

Great Location and value
Good breakfast, 1 block walk to Southern Cross Station: Long dictance trains, suburban trains, trams, and buses makes for little need of a car ( except great ocean road and phillip island) I had rented a car for 5 days, but could have gotten by with 2 days.

King size bed?
I stayed at standard king room for 2 weeks. Everything was good enough for this price except the king size bed. It was not a proper king size mattress. Just two single bed mattress were joined together on king size bed frame, so there was a gap at the center of the bed. They should provide proper king size bed if they advertise it as "Standard King Room". I had to sleep at the edge of the bed. It was like sleeping on single bed. I understand the hotel use two single bed mattresses for two customers, but then they should use another thin mattress to cover the gap if they use it as king size bed.

Great place to stay for a week/weekend trip.
Our experience at the hotel was a friendly and comfortable one, the staff were very welcoming and the hotel was very clean with modern style rooms. The location of the hotel is excellent, with easy access to all forms of public transport and within easy walking distance to the centre of Melbourne CBD

I was very impressed since I would
I was very impressed since I would never had stayed at a Travelodge before thinking it was only a budget hotel. However, the rooms were very nice. The Breakfast Hot Buffett was excellent as you had 8 hot foods to choose from. It was close to Etihad stadium for the football (only 1 minute to the end of the road). We had free parking, breakfast as part of our deal- very well priced. Quiet at night considering it was next to the railway station, we liked it but it is about 20 minute walk to central melbourne but then the Free Tram is only 5 minutes away. Great place will stay again.
