What guests think

Across recent reviews, Amora Herencia Riverwalk Melbourne earns praise for a convenient riverside location with tram access, friendly staff, and generally spacious rooms, while recurring critiques mention dated areas, inconsistent maintenance, and showers with fluctuating temperature or awkward over‑bath setups.

The bar, restaurant and lobby lounge receive frequent compliments, though breakfast variety and value feel limited to some. On-site parking is convenient but paid, and renovations or signage occasionally make access or exit confusing. Noise from functions or nearby venues disturbs some stays, while cleanliness and housekeeping standards range from spotless to missed details. Expect a comfortable stay in a great spot, with some older features and variability to keep in mind.

Very nice hotel in a great location, next to the Yarra River, right on the tram line, 20 minutes from the CBD. A great bonus that the hotel provides a pass to the terrific Richmond Leisure Centre with 50 meter pool. Nice rooms, some with views of the river and very clean. Given the quality of this hotel it’s strange that maintenance doesn’t seem to be a priority. The towel rack in our shower was visibly broken when we arrived. The hotel charges a damage deposit so we made sure to mention this to the front desk the first day. The room was cleaned daily so staff was aware. An easy repair but it was still hanging loose when we checked out three days later.

There was no milk in the room for coffee. Also no face washers in the bathroom (unusual). When exiting the car park if you followed the arrow out you were unable to continue as the exit lane around the bend was blocked off, which made exiting a little awkward. There needed to be large signage stating this.

I would have liked a better bread selection at breakfast, no seed or rye bread of something healthier. Fruit bread was nice. The soft seating has lots of stains on it which didn't feel inviting to sit on in the breakfast area. Your people were excellent on Reception and in the Breakfast area. Some of your rooms need updating and the bathrooms need the shower areas to be cleaner. My room in 433 the water sits there after a shower and even after the cleaners came in, it was still there when I came home, bit concerned about bacteria as the area never drys. The grouting needs cleaning and brought up to scratch so it doesn't look dirty. Bedrooms good though. One day coming outside the lifts on the 4th floor, I spotted the table was very dusty, I could write in the dust easier. This should be cleaned each day, the small details need managing. Good pricing at the hotel, I'd stay again and nice to have the grounds of green trees etc.

We stayed last year, and chose to go back this year as it was near to family. We paid over a $1000 for 5 nights. When we arrived we checked in and went to our allocated room. There was dirt on a light switch which looked like faeces which husband cleaned off and took a photograph. On our 2nd day I made the bed and the quilt had all stains on it. We reported this to the front desk and we where given a different room. Which we moved to and the guy assisted us with our luggage. When we got to the new room we found it was not cleaned to the standard of a 4.5 star hotel. We will definitely not be staying here again.

Overcharged on parking. Have slept on concrete that was softer than the bed. Shower was either freezing or scalding hot. Zero in between. Towel rack falling off the wall. Balcony so small could not fit more than 1 person on it. Thought we were being pranked it was so laughable. Have stayed here regularly and this will definitely be the last time. Would have been better sleeping in the car.

A very weird hotel to say the least. It feels like a time capsule from the 80s... but the late 80s when everything started to go downhill. I will firstly say that that the service staff were lovely and helpful and the outside and bar restaurant looks amazing. It really feels like this place is deserving of it's 4-star rating at this point, that is, until you get to the bedrooms. Having stayed at the Amora in Sydney several times, I wasn't expecting to be staying in Motel-style accommodation in the centre of the Melbourne. The rooms are tight, small and poorly laid out. Everything is dusty, dirty, old and broken or on the verge of breaking. There were two powerpoints in the entire room and none next to the bed. The balcony is not even slightly private and you essentially have to have your curtains drawn all day and night if you want privacy. The walls are paper thin, you could hear neighbours arguing. The bathrooms are incredibly dated and mine in particular had an opening window/door situation over the shower/bath set up that didn't close properly which meant that when I had a shower, the bed got wet... which not only sucks having to sleep on a wet bed, but makes me wonder how long it's been like this and how the mattress is holding up with that kind of exposure to moisture. I definitely wouldn't stay again as I feel the experience falls far short of the price point, essentially paying 4-5 star hotel prices in the middle of the city for a regional seaside town style motel.

I found that the reception staff were efficient, however not very warm and inviting (very serious, no smiles) We had 11:00 am checkout, we came back from breakfast at 10:45 am to find housekeeping staff already in the room cleaning... we needed to quickly finalise our packing and leave the room... even though close to check out time, one would think that staff should wait until the actual chek out time before entering a room. Same scenario for friends who were also staying there.

I stayed at the Amora Melbourne for four nights. The experience was okay—but a few issues made it less enjoyable than expected. The room and corridors had a musty smell. My heating didn’t work properly (only blew cold air), and although a technician came, it wasn’t immediately resolved. I was offered a room change but was already halfway through my stay; I received a small space heater instead. Corridors were often blocked by housekeeping trolleys/vacuum cleaners, making access difficult (especially as I use a walking stick). The carpet in the corridors also had a number of large stains. Despite signs encouraging towel reuse, mine were replaced daily. The ceiling had dozens of small dead bugs—likely gnats or midges—clearly not a new problem. The spa bath couldn’t be used properly due to limited hot water. The breakfast buffet was basic and, I felt, overpriced; barista coffee wasn’t included, and the self-serve machine sprayed milk/chocolate everywhere. I also witnessed poor service when an well-dressed (and not young) guest asked for a serviette to clean up a floor spill—a staff member, who wasn't busy handed him a serviette instead of cleaning up the spill. IT systems seemed unreliable, even the post-stay customer survey link didn’t work. On the upside, the location is great, the room rate was fair, and Jacob behind the bar was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and professional. He was the service standout. With some improvements, this could be a much better hotel.

My original room had an old bed that played havoc with my back. At 7:00am the following morning I told the concierge and he was going to get the staff to make the bed firmer. Five hours later nothing had been done and his solution was to put doonas on the mattress to firm it up. I was most distressed, exhausted from moving out of my apartment and needed to taken strong painkillers and rest. Eventually I was put into a room where the concierge asked me to try the mattress as it was ‘a new one’. It was good. This room was not an upgrade but a downgrade to a single room from my two rooms. It was in better condition than the more expensive one. The bathroom/s need upgrading and hotel products need to be on hand. The second room had better shower products than the more expensive one. One tissue left in the box with no spare in the room or bathroom. No jug to put water in the fridge. The dining facilities were excellent both in food and staff. I have not paid the bill as I’m waiting for a proper adjustment not a one of $68.69 credit. There are two nights that I stayed in the cheaper room with no adjustment. Overall, it has left a sour taste and I don’t believe I will stay there again.
