Deluxe Room | In-room safe, desk, laptop workspace, iron/ironing board

"I had a very cheap room without a window, I knew that when I booked so it was no surprise but it was somewhat claustraphobic and I would probably go for a room with a window next time. That said it was very quiet and dark so good for sleeping. The AC kept the room at a comfortable temperature and the shower was excelent, constant temperature and flow. Bed was firm. Overall the room was very clean. 950 metre walk to the National Theatre which puts this hotel in close proximity to that venue...

Studio Deluxe Apartment | In-room safe, desk, laptop workspace, blackout curtains

"My stay at Oakwood exceeded expectations. The hotel’s location near the Melbourne Convention Centre was ideal, and the team were consistently friendly and helpful. The condition of both the hotel and my room was very modern, clean, and very comfortable. It was also a bonus to have a superette conveniently located within the hotel. At times the Wi-Fi connection was patchy and I wasn’t made aware of their pickup airport transfer service at the time of booking (which would have been handy)."

It is right next to DFO, so you can get some shopping in, but also really central to Southbank and cbd by walking or transport. We would definitely love to come back!"
