What guests think
At Hillside House, travelers consistently praise the convenient, quiet location near the train to Melbourne CBD and local shops, the spacious, comfortable setup for families and groups, and a well equipped kitchen, with responsive hosting enhancing easy stays.
Several reviews note crockery or glassware shortages and chips, and an unfurnished outdoor area where guests would welcome seating or a BBQ. A few mention minor housekeeping or maintenance lapses and mixed heating or AC coverage, leading to occasional cold stays or unclear instructions. Expect a straightforward holiday-house stay rather than full hotel-style services.

This place worked mostly well for our group. Comfy beds .. we’d prefer a top sheet as alternative. Kitchen clean and neat but sufficient crockery and cutlery would be appreciated. Condiments need replenishing.

Very nice quiet area, clean tidy, comfortable, a good supply of necessities ( toilet paper, bed linen etc) plenty of cooking utensils, crockery &cutlery, fridge was switched on & cold ready for us to use. One thing I can suggest is putting in some hand towels for the bathrooms, otherwise no complaints. Also someone came to cut lawn on the verge which is not very well covered & lots of dust & small stones etc were being flicked around and we had a hire car parked in the front which could have been damaged and we would have possibly been charged for this.

This property was perfect for our family trip to Melbourne. With plenty of room for 3 generations. The location is easily accessible with local shops a short drive away. The house is furnished with everything you need for your stay. Comfortable beds, with plenty of pillows. The bath towels are soft also. We travelled into the city with the train station in walking distance. Tibor is an excellent host and was great answering questions both prior & during the stay. Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed.

The house was idea for our family trip to Melbourne. Within easy walking distance to some shops (IGA and Cafes), the train station and in a very nice and quiet area. House was clean, well equipped and rooms bigger than expected. Owner was very responsive to communications and helpful with any enquiries. Felt like home and we had a great trip, would recommend to family.

Train station being close and Laburnum Village makes it an ideal location. Garden not suitable for use and needing a good tidy. Needs outdoor furniture. Lack of mirrors in the house and one bedroom wardrobe not fit for purpose and room very small. House extremely clean, bathrooms amenities and laundry good. Kitchen very good. The lounge area needs updating, not enough seating. The house is only suitable for six people comfortably, in our opinion.

Great spot close to trainline. Great house was perfect for our needs for rooms and beds etc.Only downside there was a lot of food left in pantry from previous guests, there were staines on the wall in the second bathroom, broken glassware and not enough plates and bowls for 7 people, a random person going through the bins who advised us they were from the landlord ok but not needed till after we check out and definitely not needed at 10.30pm waking people up, back yard wasn't mowed, a few doors need attention as they dont latch.

Catching public transport in and out of the city everyday was nice and convient as train station is literally just down the road. House was tidy and welcoming. It took us a little while to work out where the laundry room was (outside). Having a BBQ out in the back yard might nice for future guests as the outdoor is nice and big enough to enjoy.

Clean and tidy beds very comfortable. Easy to manage property and in a great location for everything in Melbourne. We will be back as its a good little number.

It was the first time to book a holiday house in Melbourne. I couldn't believed how convenient it was. It was closed to my Melbourne friend's house/work, so we have a place for everyone to attend the reunion after more than 2 years haven't seeing each other. All my friends and us agreed that we should make it as our gathering spot every time if possible. The house had everything that we needed, the location was handy, the host also wonderful and alway quick response to my concerns. I would like to book again next time when I visit Melbourne.

This was a great place to stay in Melbourne. It's in a nice neighborhood, with very good access to nearby shops and transport. The house had everything we needed, and was very comfortable for a week-long stay. The washer and dryer were nice to have on site. Parking is convenient, right in front of the house. We highly recommend this home, it is great for families with all the bedrooms.
