Crest on Barkly Hotel Reviews

Nice hotel, really good location to explore St Kilda, and also penguins

An average hotel with a motel vibe, but a five star price. The bed was comfortable, the aircon was effective and the service from the front desk was quite good... but the bathroom was awkward and the hallways were constantly noisy and the trams were few and far between. In all, extremely overpriced, but tolerable.

I had a great time whilst staying at Barkley on Crest, the room was tidy and clean, service was friendly and helpful, & the continental breakfast had a grand selection at a fair price. I’ve stayed at Barkley two times now and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed both stays. Thank you.

Good location for trams to town, 15 minute walk to the beach. Nice clean rooms and reception very helpful.

Nice place for budget stays but can be very noisy due to less sound proofing between walls

lovated in st kilda hotel is kind of old but still acceptable for a night of skeep

Good location! Just a bit dissapointed they charged for a parking when at the time of booking it was already included.

I have stayed here numerous times but not in a while. It was only the manager that saved this from being a ‘nail in the coffin’ review. Hats off to her, she’s terrific. The late eve front desk guy was abrupt, unhelpful and quite arrogant when asked for documentation to support the c/card receipt of preauthorisation deposit of $150 that seems ridiculously large given the room was under $110. The room itself was damp, stank and I had to have the dehumidifier setting on the aircon on all night. The bath was very slow to drain, bathroom sink was cracked and scratched, everything looked tired and smelled terrible and the icing on the cake was the drilling first thing in the morning that sounded like it was coming from the next room door… nice! The manager has offered to look after me next time and I will certainly give it a shot, but a less persistent person would have given up and left after dealing with the late night reception staff’s attitude. The room itself was clean and tidy but the smell was awful. Hopefully next time, if I choose to return, will be an improvement.

Stayed in a windowless room which was fine for one night but no longer. Nice place and good facilities

Reception service was fine, and very helpful regarding any information about city and other nearby areas details, thanks

The receptionist didn’t provide good service didn’t help while changing room but other than it was a good hotel and at a good location if you wanna move around in city

Nice and cosy place in st kilda not too far to tram stop that can take you in to town.

Good hotel. Good price
