We stayed at The Jazz Corner Hotel during our trip to Melbourne to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. I had informed the hotel about this and informed them that I was an Expedia Gold Member as well. Upon arrival we were informed about our upgrade, which was really nice. Check in was easy as well. We were upgraded to a high floor (28) studio apartment. It was a spacious studio and had a really lovely balcony with a city view. Housekeeping was done each day and they did a good job each time. Unfortunately, we didn't get to enjoy a Jazz show as tickets sold out quite quickly but we were able to watch some past shows on TV.
We want to give a shout out to Ben. He was the bartender that served us our drinks one of the nights we were there. Sweet guy, recently started working there. He was still finding his way, but he had good customer service skills and made a really good Moscow Mule on his first attempt.
Overall, friendly staff, really nice location, close enough to the main city, but distant enough that it's not loud at night time. Trams stop right in front of the hotel which is handy for those who don't rent a vehicle. The views all around are really nice as well. I would recommend staying at this hotel. Definitely will be one that my husband and I will be returning to.
