Fodor's Expert Review Ovolo Laneways

Much effort has gone into making this 43-room boutique hotel uniquely stylish and comfortable, including its laneway location, which is ideal for those who want to be in the heart of the action. Rooms come in all shapes and sizes, from spacious studios to rooftop penthouse apartments with fantastic decks; all have been fitted and designed by internationally renowned design company Hassell, who have added some nice surprises to coincide with Melbourne's fun and surprising laneways. Things such as oversized tables, a chalkboard-style noticeboard, vintage pinball machine, tailored panel bed heads, and shaving mirrors in the showers are dotted around random rooms. An extra nice touch is that rooms have Apple television.
