A little outdated but I still loved it, great location and my room was a decent size. Customer service was okay, no real issues just not overly friendly.. would stay again!
My stay was good. The hotel is close to food and public transport.
Sal’s New York pizza was close by and well worth it!
You could only go to your floor on the elevator, normally would be fine but my friend had hurt her back and I couldn’t go to her level.
Easy commute to theatres, good onsite parking. Rooms clean and easily accessible.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Stayed in one for the one bedroom appartments with kitchen, was a lovely stay but the place probably needed more of a thorough clean. The bath was stained which happens over time but we are glad we found the lighter from the previous guest before our 1 year old did.
For what we paid, id recommend updating the TVs.. the one in the bedroom wasn’t even worth watching it was so small.
Overall would stay again but needs a bit more love!

Comfortable Stay!
Our stay was comfortable in a large 1 bedroom apartment. We needed parking however there is nowhere directly outside to park while trying to check in - only a bus stop. The rooms are a little dated but like I said comfortable with a large kitchen, bathroom and living area. We had a balcony which needed a clean but it was raining during our stay and didn’t spend any time out there. Only real criticism that would need addressing are the floors - they needed a good clean. In the kitchen the floor was actually sticky and could see footprints of previous people that had stayed.
Staff were polite and had a call from reception a few hours after check in to see if everything was fine.
Overall I would stay again as it was an extremely quiet room and had a good nights sleep.
The location of Oaks on Lonsdale was wonderful for attending the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the room was larger than we expected with all the conveniences that you would expect from an apartment - full kitchen and a laundry with washer and dryer.
The bed was comfortable and the room and the rear of the building was very quite.
My only issue is that the wifi is the slowest that I have ever had with speeds of 1-4 mb/s download and less than 1mb/s upload, even slower than you get aboard a cruise ship
If the wifi was better I would give them a rating of 4.5 to 5

Great value and comfort
Very quiet and clean and comfortable hotel which is conveniently placed to do business in the city
The Oaks Melbourne on Lonsdale is not the latest/greatest building, but is an excellent place to stay in a great location for transport, dining, bars, and cultural sites. Cooking and washing/ironing facilities were handy and used daily. The views from our 24th floor apartment were amazing.
