Birches Serviced Apartments Melbourne Guest Reviews

4.2 out of 5

Birches is good value and well situated for families and business travellers alike. It is not 5 star, but it doesn't purport to be. Our apartment was clean and functional. Some of the fittings could do with an update, but everything worked. The reception staff were pleasant and helpful, and the onsite parking at $10 per day was reasonable. It is within a 10 minute walk of the MCG and Tennis Centre. There are a number of cute cafes and restaurants within a few minutes walk, and tramlines are also close by.

Excellent value, and th staff are very courteous and welcoming. Very accessible and parking really secure. The only drawback is the traffic noise in the corner rooms, but this is beyond control and is rectified iif doubke windows are closed. Thanks

A nice little apartment which suited our needs fine. A great area to stay in, there's a lovely park just across the road. It's close to a tram stop and a ride to the CBD is quick. Would stay here again.
