hotel in Melbourne to watch game

[annew]

Can anyone recommend a hotel in Melbourne CBD/St Kilda area to watch Saturday night's game

Annew, which game are you talking about? Next Sat's game is at the Gabbatoir.

Why don't you do a search on wotif? That's always the first place I look.

In Melbourne I've previously stayed at Causeway Inn On The Mall (Bourke St Mall, very well located) and I've also stayed at Ibis Melbourne Little Bourke Street (near Docklands). Can't offer any suggestions for Brissie but check Wotif, it's a terrific service.

Not sure that's the kind of hotel she's talking about GoSouth33...

I usually watch at the Lonodn Tavern in Richmond when I'm in town, don't really know good footy pubs in CBD/St Kilda. There's always the Rising Sun in South Melbourne - I'm yet to get there!

There is always the Rising Sun in South Melbourne.
It's ALWAYS on there.

The Tower Hotel in Hawthorn will be showing the game

Happy to recommend the Rising Sun. We've been there a few times, booked a table downstairs and had dinner before the game. The food is good (in fact the steak is about as good as I've had anywhere), the wine is reasonably priced and last Saturday a pubful of people yelled their heads off. Great atmosphere.

Slightly off topic, but does anyone know a good hotel to watch the game whilst in Adelaide??

Yes, highly recommend the rising sun in sth melb, the place can go off when swans are on fire. I was there watching the game against the lions at SCG earlier in the year and when bradshaw launched that bomb 70 metre torp goal the roof nearly went off the joint.

Yep, the Rising Sun is the place to go. Make sure it's the one in South though.

Oops.....clearly I was too tired last night and not thinking straight!!!! All I can say to me is DERRRRR.

Thanks everyone looks like I am heading to the Rising Sun. Booked accom in Melb ages ago only to now find out they don't have Foxtel and other accom in Melb for SAt night is too expensive now.
