I am a returning guest to Tolarno's, a quirky building that has been a feature of St Kilda for decades. The staff at Tolarno's are splendid people, polite, accommodating and helpful. I will happily return again. Thank you.

The staff at tolarnos are friendly and helpful. They are the property's best asset. The property is old but iconic. It has its quirks. The rooms are well resourced however with fridge, microwave, toaster, kettle, tv. The shower is clean and with ample hot water. The property is walking distance to the beach and tourist attractions.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff at Tolarno's are very pleasant, helpful and accommodating. The hotel is quirky and has been a part of the neighbourhood for decades. It is full of artwork and the downstairs restaurant - currently closed for renovations - will be a welcome re-addition when it eventually reopens. The property is within walking distance to the beach, eateries, venues. The tram stop is literally outside the door and a tram journey into Melb CBD takes approximately 15 minutes. The property, given its age, is not perfect, but is a local landmark and should be preserved as is.

4/10 Fair

Grungy and sketchy. Not at all what I expected. A dingly old style hotel behind 2 closed down bar/resturants. Room had a bit of a kitchen, then another one in the room with a bed.

Older property which of course could do with updating, but this is to be expected at this fantastic price. Room was HUGE and so comfortable and really, really well appointed. It had absolutely everything we needed. Excellent transport links, will definitely be staying here again!
