Holiday Inn Melbourne Airport

* Your pillow menu * Bath gel supplied (doesn't happen very often) * delicious food - both Take In and in the restaurant * business centre, so I was able to do my on-line check in for my flight

The onlything was that the coffee in the room wasn't very nice - sorry.

Proximity to airport but awkward to access due to Parking Co. not delivering closer to than the airport terminal which left us to walk with luggage through the parking area to reach Holiday Inn.

Bathroom facilities fairly dated for a facility of this quality

Location was excellent, staff fabulous, the room was gorgeous and the choice of pillows from firm to soft a wonderful touch! It was lovely and quiet and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.

We chose Holiday Inn mainly due to its location as we were staying in Melbourne overnight and departing at 6.15am so the closer to Tullamarine we were, the better. Also, with the close proximity of Skybus, it was unnecessary to hire a car as we had public transport easily accessible.

The lounge chair in the room was reasonably comfortable and is, of course, what one expects from motels but it would be nice if there was a little bit more spent to purchase lounge chairs that were more comfortable, i.e. if you sat in it for about 30-45 minutes, there wasn't a problem but as we were back in our room early evening and watched television until retiring, I was sitting in the chair for about an hour and a half to two hours and after this amount of time, I had developed a back ache (something that always happens regardless of where we stay) so I am certainly not singling out Holiday Inn in this regard. Apart from that, we were very happy with our overnight stay.
