Fodor's "Set in the heart of St. Kilda's café, bar, and club precinct, Tolarno Hotel was once owned by artists who ran a gallery out of the space, and it still has an idiosyncratic artistic bent." Full review
Lonely Planet "Tolarno was once the site of Georges Mora’s seminal gallery, Tolarno. The fine-dining restaurant downstairs now bears the name of his artist wife Mirka, as well as her original paintings." Full review

Don't book a room at the front of the hotel if you're a light sleeper.
DK Eyewitness "In the heart of St Kilda’s café scene, this modernized hotel features contemporary artworks by local artists and original works by noted Melbourne artist Mirka Mora."
Rough Guide "Stylish and bright en-suite bedrooms with Fifties and Sixties retro furnishings, original artwork, polished timber floors and all mod cons. Good value."
Travel + Leisure "A prime location about five minutes walk from the beach as well as brightly colored rooms and public spaces decorated with original artwork by local artists, including former resident Mirka Mora." Full review

The indoor pool and sundeck on the 27th floor is not to be missed, while Time Out’s top tip for the hotel is to request access or to the club lounge (28) atop the 658-room hotel.
Fodor's "Crown Casino's newest hotel may be huge (it has 665 rooms, making it one of the country's biggest), but it still retains an elegant boutique-type feel." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "There’s something pleasingly left field about this gleaming high-rise that, at 658 rooms, is Australia’s largest hotel." Full review
