Our take
Pullman East Melbourne is the hotel I would book when walking to the MCG matters most. Five minutes on foot to the ground and three to Jolimont-MCG station make a big crowd far easier to handle, before and after the game. The outdoor pool, Mediterranean restaurant and rooms with kitchens add comfort for longer stays. With an 8.6 guest score, it is a strong all-round pick for AFL or cricket.
- Book parking in advance if you're driving, as spaces can fill up quickly on event days.
- Take advantage of the short walk to the MCG to beat the crowds and enjoy the pre-match atmosphere.
- Use Jolimont-MCG station for quick access to the city center and other attractions, avoiding traffic.

Why guests love itPullman East Melbourne is an upmarket 5-star hotel I would suggest to families going to the Melbourne Cricket Ground, because the stadium is a five-minute walk away and Jolimont-MCG station is three minutes from the door. Some rooms have a kitchen, which helps with young children, and the outdoor pool is a good reward after a day game. A Mediterranean restaurant, a bar, a fitness centre and parking complete the picture. Guests rate it 8.6 across more than 3,400 reviews.
