Hilton Melbourne Beach Oceanfront
From the moment we walked in the front door we received help with our luggage. Every one greeted us. Room was spotless, and attention was given to every detail. We had room service for breakfast and it was very good, nothing was forgotten. I would definitely stay here every time I'm in the area.

avid hotel Melbourne Viera by IHG
Extremely clean room. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel is only two years old so everything was new. No carpet in the room which is a plus for me. Will go back again next time we are in town for a cruise.
