Kimberley Gardens Hotel

Kimberley Gardens Hotel is a boutique, family-owned accommodation option in St Kilda East, Melbourne, with a quieter garden setting than the suburb’s busier streets might suggest. The property combines hotel rooms with serviced apartments and larger townhouses, giving guests several ways to stay depending on the length and style of their visit. It is suited to solo travellers and couples looking for a hotel-style room, as well as families and groups needing more space. The hotel also describes itself as being just minutes from the beach.

Accommodation ranges from single rooms and deluxe king-bed rooms with spa baths to serviced apartments with kitchens. Its open-plan executive studio apartment includes a spa bath, while the one- to three-bedroom townhouses are designed for longer stays and can sleep up to eight guests. A two-bedroom villa with kitchen and dining facilities is also featured on the site. These options make the property particularly practical for family visits, group trips and guests who want the flexibility of apartment-style facilities rather than a standard room.

The garden setting is central to the experience, with tranquil courtyards and modern suites described alongside warm, personal service. On site, guests can use the indoor heated pool and adjoining heated spa, as well as an exercise gym. The hotel also lists air conditioning, lifts, on-site parking and wheelchair access among its facilities. Its Google rating is 4.4 from 359 reviews, offering an additional indication of how previous guests have responded to the stay.

Kimberley Gardens also caters for small gatherings and business events through a dedicated event space. The indoor room can seat up to 30 people, with an outdoor pergola area for up to 14 and access to a garden setting. The space is presented as suitable for private lunches and dinners, intimate weddings, celebrations, workshops, corporate events and product launches. It includes a large presentation screen, complimentary Wi-Fi and a fully equipped kitchen, with on-site accommodation available for delegates and guests. For visitors wanting a St Kilda base that can accommodate both everyday stays and smaller group occasions, the combination of room variety, gardens and event facilities is the main draw.
