I really enjoyed the Le Meridien Melbourne - the rooms seem very well-designed and comfortable. Here are my pros, cons, and photos:

Pros:

• Upgraded before arrival to a Parliament Suite, which is a corner suite facing Parliament with 1.5 baths
• Room design is strong, unique, and residential with lots of good art, such as the croissant parachute
• Furniture was comfortable - even the high stool for the "desk"
• Views are fantastic - especially the rainbow right at checkout
• Bed is comfortable - plush covers, plush pillows, just-right mattress on the sturdy or supportive side
• Shower pressure was fantastic from the rainfall head
• A nice orange cake was waiting in my room as a welcome gift
• Staff at the front desk was friendly - think this is common in Australia
• Offered late checkout - no issue with 4 PM
• Restaurant breakfast (no lounge, so must pick as welcome gift) was very tasty - delicious croissant, tasty waffles, and one of the best omelets as the staff suggested GOAT CHEESE - yum, yum, yum
• Best towels I have had in Australia

Cons:

• 2nd omelet had peppers added - must have been the universe telling me I didn't need a 2nd omelet ;-)

Overall, I would absolutely return.
