Top hotels in Lakeside
Crowne Plaza Melbourne - Oceanfront by IHG
The room was a disappointment. Be AWARE!!! There is an additional $30 per day “Resort Fee” that is charged to you! They have valet parking only! There is a band playing at the outdoor bar during the day and into the evening. If you are looking for a quiet stay, look elsewhere!
