Good location and staff, unfortunately the room I had must have recently been used to cook some very fragrant foods as the smell had taken over the place and it is in desperate need of airing out which was hard to do on a wet cold night.

On arrival stepping out of lift to our floor , it smelt disgusting , like sewage. Got into the room and couldnt smell it. Oped the blinds to see an alley way with garbage so there was no view. The bed was super comfortable, like a 10 out of 10. Couch had a spring near popping out that you wouldnt want to sit on. Area was quiet noisy on weekend. Water preasure in shower was great. Close to theatre so was ok to walk to . Didnt relise it was in china town . Over all it was an ok stay.

Nice location, Filthy inside apartment.

Although cheap id expect the appartment to be clean. Dust on the stove, not being wiped clean down properly, alot of dust and crap under the bed and couch as if it is too hard to move to clean under. My key fell in to the couch and to my suprise it was filthy with previous peoples food waste rubbish chips and crumbs. I didnt expect a 5 star hotel but the cleanliness of it really needs to be addressed.

I was disappointed that when I went back to my room at 7.00pm both swipe keys did not work. A call had to be made to a central number and security came. It was an inconvenience. I'm so glad in didn't happen later in the night. Unfortunately though there was no one to reissue more room keys so we had to stay in the room for the rest of the night. Or go through the hassle of getting security again to let us into the room.

Great position tucked behind Chinatown

We enjoyed a 3 night stay in a one bedroom apartment at Punthill little bourke. The hotel is tucked in behind Melb Chinatown, so is very central to see theatre, comedy, restaurants and shopping. Reception staff were helpful at check in and luggage storage after check out. The shower worked well and the bed was comfortable.

Punthill Little Bourke offers a prime location in Chinatown, with a wide variety of food options nearby, and the front desk staff were polite. However, the apartment has some notable drawbacks. The room appeared old and was not clean, with noticeable dust. Several appliances were malfunctioning, including the kitchen stove, exhaust fan, and room air conditioning unit; the air conditioner was also very dusty. Additionally, the hotel lacks free parking, and the surrounding area experiences significant traffic congestion, especially on weekends.

Nice little apartment, very convenient to the city & trams. Dining options everywhere. The condition wasn't great - light switches were broken but still able to be used. The apartment also smelt a little weird? The washing machine was very loud.

Our stay was absolutely amazing this was our second time at Punthill Little Bourke, and it didn’t disappoint. The one-bedroom apartment was fantastic, with a well-equipped kitchenette, a comfortable living room, and a cozy bedroom. But the highlight was definitely the bathroom the spa bathtub was perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring the city. The staff were incredibly friendly and always easy to contact, which made everything even smoother. We also loved the food scene around the area so many great options within walking distance, making it super convenient. The nightlife was vibrant, and overall, we had an unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to come back! Roland & Grace
