Pullman East Melbourne
Rooms overlooking the MCG, two minutes from Jolimont Station
About this hotel
Pullman East Melbourne trades a CBD-core address for a genuinely rare vantage point, rooms and suites overlooking the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground and Fitzroy Gardens, set in East Melbourne's quieter, more residential streets. The two-minute walk to Jolimont Station keeps the property connected to the wider rail network despite its distance from the busiest CBD blocks, and Rod Laver Arena, the Royal Botanic Gardens, and Princess Theatre all sit within three kilometres, a short trip for guests planning an event or a garden walk. Elegant non-smoking rooms and suites in a modern décor come fitted with large windows that make the most of the MCG and Fitzroy Gardens outlook, and a fitness centre covers guests keeping up a routine during the stay. Melbourne's shopping venues and cafés can be reached within a five-minute drive.
- MCG and Fitzroy Gardens views
- 2 min to Jolimont Station
- Under 3km to Rod Laver Arena
- Modern suites
Our take
This suits sports fans and event-goers who want a room that actually overlooks the MCG, plus travelers who value East Melbourne's quieter streets over CBD density. The two-minute walk to Jolimont Station keeps the wider city easily reachable despite the less central address. Guests wanting to walk directly into CBD laneways or shopping should book a more central property instead.
- Request an MCG-facing room specifically for a match day, not every room in the property has the view.
- Use Jolimont Station for the two-minute walk into the wider rail network rather than arranging a taxi.
- Combine a Rod Laver Arena event with a Royal Botanic Gardens walk, both sit under three kilometres away.
