Macedon Regional Park Vacation Packages

Good value but need a full time restaurant

We picked Treasury on Collins for our 4-night stay in Melbourne based on the great reviews, and we were not disappointed. When walking in, you get a glimpse of the historic building in The Bank on Collins -- the restaurant located on the building's first floor. You also get a sneak peak of the 2nd floor lounge area reserved for hotel guests, which was one of our favorite perks. Every day, some tasty snacks and free alcohol were available, providing the perfect happy hour before we headed out for dinner. There were also free pastries, waters, and other packaged snacks available on the same floor, which we much preferred over the typical (and expensive) minibars offered at most hotels. The room was spacious, clean, and modern. Since there's no minibar, the fridge was completely open for our own drinks and snacks, which was a refreshing change. There were other quirky additions to the room, such as a two-up paddle (an Australian gambling game), and a Rubik's cube (for which you're offered a free bottle of wine if you solve it!). The location was also excellent, with many great restaurants and shops nearby. We particularly enjoyed walking to the huge Royal Botanic Gardens, which was a nice change-of-pace from the rest of our Melbourne visit. Overall, if we ever have a chance return to Melbourne, we'll strongly consider staying at Treasury on Collins again.

Lovingly restored Art Deco hotel with delightful modern touches throughout. I definitely feel the vibes as I walked around, jazz piped through speakers, beachy photographs with a contemporary artistic twist. I’d call this place boutique and unique rather than luxe…which I for one prefer.

Rooms facing the river are cool. Great location and convenient. Housekeeping is awful.
