102 Canterbury Rd, Middle Park VIC 3206, Australia
Pub
•By Rebecca Mery. Immediately upon entering the Middle Park Hotel, one is struck with the mix of old world grandeur of an establishment over 120 years old, with the modern sensibility that comes from a contemporary facelift. It’s elegant without daring to be stuffy, and casual while remaining effortlessly stylish. That, and the classic pub food on offer is to die for. Apart from the location, the interior and the history, the Middle Park Hotel also boasts one of the longest free-standing bars in Australia. That’s forty-five individual taps - count ‘em! As far as function venues go, the public bar is available, comfortably housing twenty to eighty guests for canape-style functions. 21sts, sporting ‘dos, family get-togethers, or casual drinks; it’s all good. In addition to the public bar, the Middle Park Hotel also offers a private dining room for sit-down occasions, or corporate meetings and conferences. The Middle Park Hotel has sat proudly on Canterbury Road since 1889. Gazing upon the Victorian staircases, the bar, and the rooms of the hotel proper, it’s easy to see why it’s stood the test of time. Nestled between Port Phillip Bay, the CBD, Albert Park Lake and St Kilda, it’s also easy to see why it won’t be leaving anytime soon either.






Quiet and Comfortable! I really enjoyed my stay at the Middle Park - it is a super convenient location for inner city Melboure, but also an easy walk to the park or the water. Rooms are small but have everything you need to make yourself at home. The rooms are very quiet and airconditioned. A great place! The stairs arent for everyone though.
We booked the main Dining Room for a Rugby lunch for 80 people. This was capacity but it didnt feel crowded. The management and staff were fantastic! There were a lot of people but they handled it with aplomb! Nothing was too much trouble and the food was delicious. Thank you very much, we will be singing your praises to all our associates.
Where to start. We’ve previously loved this place. The service is always great and the food is always excellent. Tonight however, was a different story……. We ordered 2 steaks. 1 Blue. And 1 medium rare. The first steak came out medium well. And the second steak never appeared. After mentioning this to the staff. They apologized and brought out our meals. The second attempt at our steak orders came out medium well and medium. Again. Just not what we ordered. And to top it off. Our peppercorn sauce was just gravy but couldn’t be bothered with the hassle of changing it.
We had an amazing weekend stay. The double shower was amazing, bed was very comfy and loved the complementary Nespresso in the room. Beats the instant coffee offered at most other hotels. Only suggestion I can make but doesn't warrant a lesser rating is to get firmer, fuller pillows. One was not enough and two was too many.
Solo business travel. Note that 5 star rating is for the price range - not a 5 star hotel as such. Pros: Rooms are very clean, although small. Bed very comfortable and quiet place considering there's a pub and restaurant downstairs. Convenient eateries and right across the road from 96 tram. Downstairs pub and restaurant food selection is awesome. Cons: There's no lifts and stairs narrow (original features - well maintained) so not suitable for kids / prams.
