The Cullen is a striking contemporary boutique hotel inspired by the equally contemporary and striking artwork of Australian artist Adam Cullen.Aside from the obvious fact that the Cullen boasts a variety of high quality suites within its modern walls, the hotel is also home to a number of impressive and stylish function venues - to suit a variety of events.Siting resplendently atop the Cullen is the venue’s impressive rooftop space, great for receptions and meetings. For larger events, the rooftop is able to be combined with the adjoining Lady Luck penthouse. Also available is the Growler penthouse, with its oversized outdoor terrace with barbeque.The Cullen is located on Commercial Road in Prahran, just up from the always-buzzing intersection of Chapel Street. The Cullen is surrounded on all sides by tram options, with Prahran train station a short stroll away. It’s also a superb address for drinking and dining options - not that you’d want to leave the surrounds of the Cullen, of course.

Perfect location with easy, secure parking on site. The reception staff were lovely and helpful upon arrival and made sure we had a quiet room as requested and made me aware of a couple of bonuses they offered (late checkout etc.) The room was nicely laid out with all the things one would expect in a good hotel: lighting options (table lamps), good toiletries and a great shower with water pressure! A window that can be opened!(so rare) good window treatment so the room can be made really dark, neat kitchenette setup, lots of clothes hanging space. SUPER comfortable bed. All round great experience and we will definitely be returning.

Thank you, Youjin and Ellen, for the outstanding service you provided during my stay. My room was exceptionally clean and tidy, and the view was absolutely breathtaking. This is a truly beautiful hotel that exemplifies excellent hospitality. I look forward to returning and staying here again in the future.

A huge thank you to the staff for fixing the issue of one bed for parents and their 17 year old daughter and moving us into a two bed room with no fuss. For accommodating my disability parking on our third and final night. The staff are wonderful. Location is great, would like a little more privacy in the bathroom but we got by. Vibrant area and would absolutely stay again if returning to the area. Thank you for all your help and consideration.

Couldn't fault anything. Spacious rooms with kitchen & dining area. Appelles toiletries. The most comfortable beds / bedding....I wanted to take the pillows. Pod coffee machine and soo incredibly reasonably priced. Very friendly helpful staff and room serviced daily. WELL DONE

Check in/out was great. Room was perfect for what I was after. Maybe a choice of pillow would be good as mine were super soft which I don't like, but that's just me.
