Georgian Court B&B Guest House

Staff was really nice, the breakfast was quite ok with freshly prepared eggs, yogurt and toasts (but always the same, as I stayed there for almost one week I was tired of it). The room was decent, the historical building was beautiful. There was tea and a kettle in the room

The rooms are not cleaned during the stay, the toilet paper, shower gel, etc were not refilled, which again, for one week long is not optimal. I would have given a 10 honestly, if it was not so cold in the bathroom (no window glass, just some piece of plastic and clearly no heating) and in the breakfast room (if I was lucky to get the table with the heater it was bearable).

Good price, lovely breakfast, staff always helpful. Location very convenient for public transport & lots of varied restaurants.

Mattress a tad hard for my taste. Ensuite excellent, but needed a few dabs of paint & rust painted over. Needed to unplug another appliance in order to power microwave. The view was of 1 dying plant. Couldn't work out how to lock window. No cleaning for duration of rental. Gardens a little run down in general.

Breakfast had several options, hot and cold, tea, coffee, juices. Yoghurt and fruit, toast, raisin toast, sausages, beans, bacon, eggs and pancakes. Location was within walking distance to eateries, shops, tram and train services. Lovely shady and pretty area. Owners were very friendly and accommodating, approachable and helpful. Rooms are clean and comfortable, ours had adjoining ensuite. Televisions are in the rooms and wardrobe, mirrors etc.

Would have been nice to have enough room for table and chairs rather than the lift out table. Water sometimes goes cold or hot all of a sudden.

The B&B is in a great location for sporting or concert events, the room was good and suitable for the 1 night stay. Bacon & eggs was a surprise for breakfast, expecting just cereals & toast. The hard boiled eggs are a bit fiddly / messy.

Even though it was free parking on site, the spaces are VERY tight and noticed the 27 point turns of guests reversing out when leaving. My single bed was on the firm side, but my daughter said she was sleeping on a cloud.

Great location Had tram access within 6 mins walk to travel to CBD ,Docklands, Punt Road and Swan Street or you could walk 20 mins via Treasury & Fitzroy Gardens to CBD Had a small strip of shops 6 mins walk to Wellington Pde with Italian (Geppetos was Excellent)Indian, Japanese and Laurent Cafe (expensive But the Speciality Cakes with excellent coffee “to die for”

The steep stair case to the first floor

This is a budget hotel - do not book if you are expecting fancy decor. It is a quirky old building, however it was clean, bed was comfortable, bathroom adequate, aircon worked well, breakfast was ample and included in cost. (cereals, toasts, fruit, eggs, bacon, sausage, tea, coffee, juice) Staff friendly, snagged free parking and location is great- bus, tram, train nearby. We will stay here again.

Our bedroom door was a little hard to pull shut, needed to use key, a few cobwebs near ceiling, all minor items.

The place was not far from the main city and one could use the tram to reach in 5 minutes once you get the tram which is mostly available every 15 minutes during the day.

With heavy luggage may be a problem. (1) one needs to walk on the footpath from the tram station to the guest house and (2) if the allotted room is not on the ground floor, then one would need to carry the luggage on his own... so would be slightly painful to elderly people. Also breakfast while basic continental is available, the vegetarians will have to make do with toast and cornflakes.

It is an old house with charm. The breakfast was very nice and definitely value for money. The mattress on the bed was good, and the water pressure sufficient. The staff were friendly.

There was a spa bath under the shower, that for an older person would have been impossible to get into. The bath was old and flaky, and the dresser of the bathroom could do with some repair. We had trouble getting all of the channels on the TV.

If you're looking for upmarket and trendy, then this isn’t the place for you. But if you’re seeking a genuinely enjoyable old-style B & B experience in a historic building with lots of character (and you don’t mind a chip in the paint or a slightly frayed towel), then this will certainly please. The rooms are clean and very comfortable, the management/staff are helpful and friendly, the breakfast is basic (but the scrambled eggs were surprisingly good), and the location in East Melbourne is excellent for access to the city’s parks and attractions, while still at a very reasonable price - especially with onsite parking. We will certainly be booking here again for future visits to Melbourne.

Location excellent as going to MCG for the footy. Very helpful gentleman at reception. Old building, but my room was spotlessly clean and the bedding was super clean.

No lift, and quite a few stairs. On arrival the gentleman at reception very kindly took my suitcase upstairs to my room. I had an early departure the next morning so had to get my luggage downstairs which I managed to do, but perhaps make it clear on the site that the bedrooms are upstairs and no lift.
