Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Shamrock

The lodgings at this landmark Victorian hotel in the city center range from traditional guest rooms to spacious suites. If you're looking for reasonably priced luxury, ask for the Amy Castles or the Dame Nellie Melba spa suites. Named after famous 19th-century Australian opera singers, they have hot tubs and overlook the beautiful Rosalind Gardens. The hotel's location, its grand public areas, and its beautiful wrought-iron balcony are the big draws. A continental breakfast is included with all rooms.
