The Langham, Melbourne

A few years ago we stayed here and had a horrible experience, so I’m glad to say this time it was a lovely stay. I was travelling with my 5 year old son and we stayed for 2 nights in a Corner King Room with a lovely river view. The room was spacious and although it could do with some refreshing, it was still very nice. A few inexpensive updates could really elevate it so revarnishing the tables and chairs and replacing the two-seater couch would make the room feel brand new again. The location is spot on and hard to beat, which is why they can command higher rates. The bed was a little uncomfortable for me as I could feel the springs, so hopefully the mattress is updated soon. Saturday breakfast service was a little inattentive, with some areas left unattended like the Bacon and the Hash browns etc however Sunday was a noticeable improvement. The breakfast range was excellent and truly offered something for everyone. The pool and spa were great and definitely helped tire out my little fella. If you can spare the change for upgrading your room then definitely spend the money. It’s worth it imo. We return in June so that probably says it all.

One suspects the High Tea at the Langham is trading on an OLD reputation rather than current experience. The decor and ambiance is exemplary. The service is worthy of a cafeteria. We averaged three requests for each service item. Some items just failed to materialize. Very disappointing- go to The Windsor, …you’ll be better off

A trip to celebrate some special birthdays was made really special by the team at Langham Melbourne! Attention to detail, absolutely first-class facilities and a genuine friendly smile from every staff member really made our stay. Breakfast in Melba is a world class experience and must be tried! Everything about Langham says quality, from the pool and spa to the beds and linen that offer a great night's sleep! The staff really went that extra mile to make our stay one to remember. A perfect relaxing weekend for our family - this will always be our choice in Melbourne.

Hotel location and room quality was great but service was far below expectations. I would not stay again.

First time staying at The Langham. The hotel itself is definitely older, but I honestly think the real Langham experience is not in the walls of the building, but in the service. The level of hospitality here is among the best we have ever experienced. From the bell boys, reception staff, breakfast team — everyone was incredibly professional, kind and efficient. The service staff and chefs prepared excellent food every day. Special mention to the lovely lady at the egg station and also the lady preparing the congee, both genuinely warm and welcoming. The room itself was also very comfortable even if some furniture is slightly older. Sound insulation was excellent, the amenities and soaps felt very high quality, and cleanliness was absolutely perfect. The bed deserves special praise, especially the bedding and sheets — so soft and comfortable that it was honestly difficult to get out of bed in the morning. We had a corner room overlooking the river and the view was beautiful. The real highlight however was definitely the lounge, which elevated the entire experience to something that genuinely felt almost 7-star level. The whole lounge team was so professional and friendly that we almost wanted to spend the entire day there. Service was exceptional throughout. Tea time felt like proper sweet indulgence, while the evening canapés were a true gourmet experience, including the drink selection. The Langham Spritz cocktail was excellent. The lounge experience honestly exceeded what we previously experienced at hotels like Four Seasons, The Ritz-Carlton, Conrad .... We will absolutely return to Langham hotels again in the future.
