Quest St Kilda Road reviews

Guest scores across the major platforms sit consistently high, which is unusual for a property this size. The spread runs from Booking.com’s 8.8 out of 10 to Expedia’s 10 out of 10 based on 723 reviews.

Positive guest feedback

Hotels.com gives a 9.2 out of 10 described as “Wonderful,” and Trip.com reports an overall 8.9 out of 10 from 104 reviews. The recurring themes in the sampled write-ups are room cleanliness, staff helpfulness, kitchen facilities, and laundry access.

One TripAdvisor reviewer described the executive one-bedroom apartment as “well set up for preparing meals, has excellent laundry facilities, and both sofa and bed were very comfortable.” A Trip.com reviewer noted that “the rooms were clean and comfortable” and praised the reception team and available laundry and gym. Hotels.com adds that the property is “conveniently located near various restaurants and dining options.”

Common complaints

Across the five listing sources reviewed here, no single recurring complaint emerged. The lowest published score was Booking.com’s 8.8 out of 10, still a “very good” verdict, and Expedia reports 521 “excellent” reviews out of 723 total. One channel discrepancy did surface: check-out is listed as 11:00 AM on Booking.com and Qantas but as noon on Goibibo — worth confirming at check-in.

What this means: The available review data points to consistent guest satisfaction, with the only practical friction identified being a channel-dependent check-out time.

Quest St Kilda Road price

Rates swing widely by date and room type. momondo shows a range of AUD 104 – AUD 574 per night. TripAdvisor lists a standard-room range of approximately AU$155 – AU$415.

Price range per night

Date-specific samples from booking platforms show how much the same property can vary. Expedia reported US$111 for one night for two adults on 13 October 2026, including taxes and fees. Hotels.com displayed US$99 per night and US$109 total for a selected stay, and Trip.com listed a starting price of roughly US$104 with an average around US$218.

Regional portals show further variation: Klook lists approximately HK$799.30 per night, and Goibibo shows a starting price around INR14,107 per night. These are conversion- and date-dependent snapshots rather than comparable quotes.

Average nightly rate

Because rates vary significantly by date and room type, a single average figure is not reliable. The quoted band of AUD 104 – AUD 574 gives a more accurate picture of what guests may pay.

Booker’s tip: Compare the exact dates on momondo or the official Quest page; sub-AUD 150 rates appear on weekdays, while event weekends can triple the nightly price.

AUD 104 – AUD 574 nightly range • 112 rooms

The trade-off: Rates swing by several hundred dollars depending on dates.

Alternatives to Quest St Kilda Road

Two comparable Quest properties are often mentioned alongside this one. Quest St Kilda Bayside emphasizes an outdoor heated pool, apartment laundry, and its bayside position near St Kilda, per Qantas Hotels. Quest Prahran is positioned closer to the MCG and Rod Laver Arena, making it a stronger fit for event-heavy stays round at Prahran, according to Hotels.com AU.

Review scores for Quest St Kilda Road are higher than both comparators in the sampled data, but the parking surcharge and weekday-only breakfast are factors to weigh against a hotel with daily housekeeping.

The bottom line: Choose Quest St Kilda Road for the kitchen-and-laundry apartment model; pick a Bayside or Prahran alternative when a pool or arena proximity matters more.

Our pick for self-catering stays

Our pick: For independent travellers, business visitors, couples, and solo travellers who want a kitchen or laundry, Quest St Kilda Road is the pick among the three Quest properties reviewed. Check the price band against your exact dates before booking — if you only need a bed for one night, a nearby hotel might match the per-night rate.
