I picked Melville because A) It was the most affordable for what I was looking for and B) It looked clean. The photos on the website make the place appear MUCH larger than it is. Our room was tiny, and my 6'3 boyfriend could barely fit in the restroom, let alone close the door if he needed some 'privacy'. We... More

I'd actually booked into the Excelsior next door, but the reception is in the Melville next door, which is part of the same group (Argyle). I arrived at 10:30am and left my bags as couldn't check in until the afternoon. After walking down Argyle street and seeing a few tatty hotels, I was pleasantly surprised by the smart exterior facing... More

I had booked a single but I was upgraded on arrival without asking (the single, although small would have done just fine but I wasn't going to... More

Stayed here as I was catching the Eurostar early the following morning. Absolutely perfect for that. Staff were friendly and helpful at check in. Double bed was really comfortable. Nicely appointed room but not large (but good for the area). Unexpectedly good shower. Perfect for a business traveller who just wants a comfy bed and free wifi. Had a good... More

Stayed for 5 nights at the hotel. It is located near a tube. Rooms are good enough, clean and basic. Staff are very helpful. We had a room on the second floor with a veranda (I'm a smoker so this is a plus). The room was just the right size enough for four person with one luggage each. It was... More
