SSRuss83I stayed in Box Hill motel between 3rd of Nov'23 - 5th of Nov'23. My husband and I arrived at Box Hill motel around 12-1pm. We were so exhausted as we took turn driving from Sydney - Melbourne. We drove from Sydney past midnight. Upon calling if we would be let in early, surprisingly it is allowed. Otherwise we would have slept in the car until check-in time if the room isn't ready yet. We got room no.1 and it was very clean. I didn't use the towel as I prefer to use my own towel, my husband also use his own towel. One of the hanging towel though had a snot on it and I put that towel aside despite we didn't use it. There were 3x plates in total and one of the plate was dirty and I assumed previous guest must have used this 1 plate and didn't wash it but instead just slipped it in between the clean plate. We used 2x plates for ourselves but I washed the 3x plates myself. Great Wifi speed too as I was able to complete a little bit of work from Room no.1. My parents always taught me to appreciate and respect people's places. Upon checking out, I saw Carol and OMG, she is so kind, friendly, down to earth and helpful. She was busy rolling people's luggage to their room. I remember my father always taught me the great businessman is not the one who always wanted to be served but the one who knew how to serve others first. There's a saying about ”servant leadership”. A great leader know how it feels to be at the bottom to observe, learn and serving others as well as better appreciate the top and experience various roles to understand the duties and responsibilities of each roles. THANK YOU Box hill motel team and Carol too for allowing us to stay at your beautiful clean and tidy place. We were able to sleep very soundly, hope nobody can hear us snoring :) I highly recommend Box Hill motel, Melbourne to anyone on a trip to Melbourne.

GGuest UserThis motel looks good. It was clean and reasonably modern. Unfortunately our room was at the front and had some road noise and the wind was whistling and buffeting on the glass. Otherwise it's an okay motel with small rooms

Best Western Plus Buckingham International

PPARAS RABRAWarm welcome by receptionist. Awesome service. Quality and service at par excellence. Very much near to train stations. The Best Western was perfectly fine for my one-night business trip to Melbourne—clean enough and very well-located. My only real complaint is that basic amenities were missing; there was no toothpaste or bottled water in the room. It didn't ruin my stay, but adding these simple comforts would go a long way for short-stay guests.

RRyuaAsamiTransiting back home from New Zealand, I stayed for one night, and the price, combined with points redemption, was quite good. The key highlight is the 24-hour airport shuttle service, which is fantastic in Australia where labor is so expensive. I really hope the hotel keeps this up! 😊 No reservation needed for the shuttle. After landing and collecting your luggage, just exit the airport, cross the first pedestrian crossing, and wait at the spot shown in Picture 1. The vehicle is very distinctive because it's branded with the hotel's logo. The wait was about 15-20 minutes. The hotel has its own restaurant, which I hear is quite good, but I was really craving Chinese food. You can order delivery via Uber Eats; delivery speeds here can be quite slow, so it's a good idea to order as soon as you land. I recommend using the hotel's front desk as your delivery point. There's also an IGA supermarket about an 8-minute walk away, so if it's not too late, you can do some last-minute shopping there.

GGuest UserThe location is great! Eateries and Coles nearby. Toilet look modern. Quiet and car parking right outside the room. The only drawback is no table cloth and dishwasher in the kitchen to clear up our simple meals.

SsjudkshdiNice staff let us check in late, there are heating mats on the mattresses, and the room is very clean and spacious. There is a heater but the warm air didn't reach the far side of the room. Close to moonlit sanctuary for those who want to stay nearby.

4.5/10

GGuest UserI think the facilities are worth the price. There were two outlets next to the bed, but one of them couldn't fit because of the width of the bed rail and the size of the plug. I paid $6 for towels when I checked in, and got $5 back when I checked out.
