Very happy with the value for money at this modest but cozy family run guesthouse. The staff were very friendly and helpful, rooms were comfy, well maintained and had everything you’d need Location was good close to the bus and a short (but steep!) walk to the town centre

Great value for the price. Clean and simple - perfect for our family of 4 with teenagers. A comfortable deck and common area with extra refrigerators, toaster, electric skillet do you can prepare simple meals. Perfect for walking into town and tons of dining and shopping. But it is a steep hilly walk.

The staff at the Melbourne Lodge were very friendly and helpful. Check in was quick and easy and our room was clean and comfortable. The lodge is within walking distance of the Queenstown Gardens and the main hub of Queenstown and they also have sufficient car parks for guests vehicles at no additional charge if you don't feel like walking up the hill :-) The breakfast included was perfect for our needs and the staff made you feel very at home and were genuinely interested in where my husband and I were from and where we were going next. I would definitely recommend the Melbourne Lodge to friends and family. The shower pressure was also FANTASTIC!!!

Although essentially tidy and well-located, the website descriptions were very misleading. Our two-bedroom with kitchen facilities was a one-bedroom with a microwave and a bathroom for the sink. We witnessed two other groups of travellers having to discuss their simar shock upon arrival. This meant our family of four were cramped in a small space unexpectedly, without means to cook for ourselves. Multiple fittings were loose (several shelves and a seat designed for people which collapsed when a suitcase was placed on it). There was, however, excellent wifi, comfortable beds and great water pressure in the shower.

Good central budget accommodation. Family room worked out well for 2 adults, 2 kids. Clean, basic, building operates like a hostel.
