Convenient location near the princess theater. We stayed only one night while in Melbourne to see the show Annie. The man who checked us in (cannot recall his name but he was from Spain) was very nice and provided a list of restaurants in the area that stay open late so we can get dinner. Room was dated but comfortable and warm with good working heater. Would definately stay there again when in town for another show.

We had a good time here, it’s so nice and close to all restaurants and shops. The service was excellent, room is clean and all the receptionist were so helpful. I recommend anyone who wants to find a place to stay, City Limits is the one.

Hidden gem, only found this place through a friend’s recommendation as it doesn’t appear to come up high in searches - which probably won’t stay this way for long! Would love to come back. Thank you for the stay.
