Victoria square which was across the road from the main entrance had the added advantage of the tram to Glenelg. Parking facilities available near by and reasonably priced

After a ten day road trip in the Outback I wanted a decent room with a bath to relax before heading back to Melbourne and the Majestic was perfect. Good, central location and a very comfortable room with everything I needed. Although I was up fairly early next morning, it was good to know that checkout was a city-friendly 11am. The hotel’s name is a bit of a misnomer though - the rooftop is neither majestic nor garden like!
