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

The entrance is off a laneway in Chinatown, so there no traffic or general city noise at all. Walk to the theatre district in only a few minutes. Secure entrance & friendly staff. Clean but in need of a refurbish, which I was told they will be doing soon

Great location on little Burke. Heart of China town. Easy to get to everything. Options for dining out was amazing. Literally restaurant options as soon as you walk out the door.with quirky lane ways with graffiti art.you never know what’s up a lane way could be a roof top bar or a trendy cafe. Worth the explore.

Quite a good room for the price. Spacious one bedroom with comfy bed. Check in closed well before 9 on Sunday due to staffing issues (5.30) and led to some drama in check in as the hotel has no other staff. I think it some of the rooms in an apartment complex. Now to check in out of hours you use a machine that drops your key into a box with a flap. When I opened it I found just a key rather than, had I checked further, a small envelope with a key in it. I did think it was strange being just a key but it opened the door and operated the lift but not the room door.... One hour later and multiple phone support type calls a manager turned up and found or dispensensed the key from the box. He took my key that I had been using, it operated all the lift floors so it was some sort of visitors key for the more permanent residents/small business operators that reside In the building I guess. The flap in the machine is not locked, my advice would be check first and remove anything that is in there. Then enter your code and what drops is your key. Anyway not the best start but otherwise a pretty good stay.
