Zagame’s House, Melbourne

Comfy bed, clean, wonderful facilities. Very kind staff.

Not much natural light.

Zagames is a cool spot in a great location. The beds were super comfy, shower worked great, wine bar and restaurant was very good, and it is in a great location- walkable to the Little Italian restaurants in Carlton, shopping and bars in Fitz Roy, and very close to Flinders Square and a bunch of sites to see. Perfect for our 4-day stay in Melbourne.

We had a fantastic stay at Zagame’s House and would happily stay here again. The location was brilliant, especially being right near Lygon Street and all the amazing restaurants. Having so many great food options just a short walk away added to the overall experience of being in Melbourne. Our room was clean and comfortable making it a great place to come back to at the end of the day. What really stood out, though, was the staff. Everyone we interacted with was genuinely friendly and helpful. Every question was answered and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Overall, a wonderful stay. Comfortable, well located, and supported by a team who clearly care about their guests.

The only minor drawback was the security around lift access. Being able to access the lifts and accommodation levels without needing to scan a room key meant that anyone could potentially access the floors. While this didn’t impact our stay directly, requiring key-card access for lifts would add an extra layer of security and peace of mind for guests, particularly those travelling solo.

Very comfortable, great service, wonderful products and good proximity to cafes and trams

The chrome cast on the TV wouldn’t always work

The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was very clean and modern. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location very good.

Would've liked more privacy for the bathroom/toilet with a proper wall rather than just a privacy screen.

Position is great easy access to trams near by to go into the city. Great restaurants.

Good location, halfway between Fitzroy and downtown. Rooms were kept spotlessly clean and the staff were lovely. Everything worked very well and I was sad to leave !!

We stayed overnight for my daughter’s graduation at the Royal Exhibition Building. Great location, walkable to CBD and Carlton. Room was comfortable with all amenities. Staff were very helpful and friendly, storing luggage for us after checkout and even gave us a free coffee in the morning as a graduation present. Would definitely stay again!

Great location, close to the centre but not in a loud area - great facilities and clean.

Breakfast and room quality

Great room friendly staff accessible

Nothing

Super nice and friendly staff. We arrived early in the morning, tired after 24 hours flight, and we got the room even before check-in time :))

Great room. Facilities excellent. Food amazing

Nothing to not like

Love the friendly staff, location, breakfast cafe and comfy bed

The toilet inside a glass room provides limited privacy. Suitable for very familiar couples only 😬😅

First of all the staff here is AMAZING! So friendly and accommodating! The location was fantastic and central to all of what Melbourne has to offer - just a short walk to just about anything. It's in an Italian area so the food was great, too. It's an iconic, eclectic hotel atmosphere that was safe and welcoming. The bed was very comfortable.

Just some minor notes: The bathroom lighting was rather dim and the lack of a shower door left a little water mess. The pillows were uncomfortably firm (very hard). There are no dressers or closets for clothing storage.

Nice hotel with good facilities. Corner room was spacious and the restaurant is of high quality.

I loved the room, the bed was ridiculously comfortable, it was in a wonderful location just outside of the city (perfect for me as I find the city too overwhelming). Onsite parking was a huge plus for me too, and the room layout was perfect for a cozy stay. The staff were very friendly too. I wish I could have stayed for more than just one night!

I was a bit disappointed by the meals, they didn’t really hit the spot for me.

No freezer. No fan. There was a milk frother but no way to use it!

Modern and clean Very comfortable bed and bedding

Nothing

Location

The smell of old, stained and damp carpets on the patio hallways.

Loved it, can’t wait to go back

Not much

Spacious room with amenities

Good have been cleaner and also the location is in CBD but not super central

Great bar. Chilli scramble for breakfast was excellent. Good coffee.

Lovely property. Delicious breakfast. Super friendly & helpful reception staff. Thank you for having us.

Clean tidy with excellent staff

Location Staff Rooms

I didn't have breakfast; however, one thing to mention is how small things are thought about: the minibar is automatic, but there is plenty of space for personal stuff (NOT very often thing, even in pouch hotels)! And Nespresso coffee machine. And comfy bed. And reasonably well-equipped gym. And the best possible location. And pristine rooms. And very friendly staff. Solid 10/10.

It's hard to find what can be done better

The bed was so comfortable and the design was unique. Staff were very kind and welcoming.

Very comfortable room in a nice location on the edge of the city center. Great breakfast and access to parks and museums.

Nothing.

Location was great close to city & Vic Markets, Tram lines & Melbourne Central.

Motel style, could be noisy.

Location, comfy bed and fairly prices room service

Nothing

excellent breakfast with a wide choice, very nice Japanese-style rooms (with Western comforts), Bluetooth stereo in the room and all the bathroom accessories very good and always stocked.

Nothing.

Pretty much everything. Great style and size. Amazing bed. Great bathroom facilities. Temperature control was fantastic. Very clean and private, and an amazing location in the city, within walking distance of pretty much everything.

Very little. I would’ve liked a fridge that wasn’t pressure sensitive so I could keep more of my own stuff in there, and the bathroom sink’s tap made it impossible to fill a water bottle. These are nitpicky details! Otherwise I can’t fault the place.

Cool and great vibe. Very aesthetically pleasing. Very comfy bed.

The light streamed in from under the door - would be worth putting a door snake or cover at base of door.

Well designed room, very comfortable. Great location, short walks to everywhere in the CBD and inner north.

Location excellent, ambience & Lord Lygon’s wine bar & food were great

Check in was delayed as they were so busy & full the night before & unable to help us with an early check in which would have been helpful after a 22 hour journey

Location was excellent, bed was wonderful, rooms was lovely, staff were awesome, bar and restaurant also lovely (had a few meals and coffees and very nice).

Toilet was VERY noisy - no secrets! :(, light over the basin was weird to turn off - we spent the first night with it glaring away, and room was quite bright from lights outside - if you are after a blackout room don't think this is for you. Room was also tiny with space for only one suitcase (there were two of us). Possibly placing the bed in the middle would have left more space. Perfect for one person through, as also only one chair.

The staff were great

My Breakfast was terrible. Too oily Scrambled eggs are not cooked in an oily wok . They are cooked in a frypan in butter and milk. My Burger was only half cooked. That's why I only had two meals there. The bathroom light would not turn off.

Superb hospitality, rooms, food, amenities and especially staff. Great value for money, feels exactly how a boutique hotel should feel.

Great parking, super clean.

Breakfast was terrific and staff were wonderful. My room was well appointed, although a little dark. I enjoyed sitting outside in the outdoor area which had good wifi service.

I stayed on 2 occasions in the space of a week. The room on my first stay was located next to a building which dampened so you couldn't hear the traffic. The second room was near the corner of 2 busy roads which meant it was rather noisy due to sound of accelerating cars, trucks etc even late at night.

cool place

A bit noisy in the afternoon

High quality with everything you need

Nothing

Location

Everything was fine , including the staff at the reception and food section

I was shocked by two incidents in my room 232 (from 17 Nov to 27 Nov, 2025): on one occasion the bag of potato chips was missing from the bar (I don't eat such type of junk food at all), and the second, much more serious, I found my laptop broken through one of the hinges of the screen, as if it had been dropped on the floor. After some thought, I decided not to report those incidents to reception, because I would have a hard time proving they weren't due to my own actions. However, I decided to share this unpleasant experience in the survey about my stay at your hotel.

The rooms were very comfortable. The Smith & Co products were devine! Bathroom lighting was great.

The doors could do with adjusting to stop them slamming - that was the only noise we could hear during our stay. The lighting in the main bedroom could also be improved.

The breakfast was excellent and I loved their unique Blue Magic tea. The beds are super comfortable and also the showers are so big, love this hotel.

Perfect location

All excellent

Very luxurious feel, the staff were incredible. The bed was so comfortable which is hard to find in hotels. We were able to check out later with no extra cost!

Loved everything!

Love this place, a bit of luxury while travelling for work.

Nothing

The location was perfect for where I needed to attend while in Melbourne, they have amazing coffee in the lobby as well as food options and a restaurant which makes it so convenient when you’re managing a tight schedule! The room was beautiful and so much attention to detail, I particularly loved the inclusion of the books and a house shaped tissue box holder! Very sweet 🤭

I didn’t feel 100% safe in the rooms, it wasn’t clear if the lock was working and when you can hear people outside it’s a bit disconcerting as a young female travelling alone. I also did notice a few hairs when I checked in that weren’t mine but no where can be perfect!
