Concierge "The Prince has not one but multiple watering holes, the better to serve its über-hip, night-owl clientele."
Fodor's "Cutting-edge design, contemporary artworks and sculptural furniture, and spare yet inviting luxury make this boutique hotel perfect for aficionados of unfussy elegance." Full review
Insight Guides "The Prince has always been one of the city's hippest addresses, and a major refurb a few years ago simply upped the ante."

"This forty-room boutique hotel housed within the Prince complex is one of Melbourne’s most elegant places to lay your head."

Frommer's "Colour your world -- or at least your stay in Melbourne -- the shades of Jasper (the gemstone) when you stay at this redeveloped YWCA hotel." Full review
Lonely Planet "Sports moody down-lighting, a veritable Pantone swatch-book of colours, louvered bathrooms and some lovely graphic soft furnishings." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The old Hotel Y has never looked so good. Within a bagel’s throw of the Queen Victoria Market, this refurbished option offers light and pleasant boutique-style rooms."
Rough Guide "A complete design makeover has raised this YWCA-owned hostel, across the road from Queen Victoria Market, to boutique hotel status."
Fodor's "A former YWCA, the Jasper has undergone a radical face-lift, redesigned and polished to a shine." Full review
Time Out "Jasper Kitchen seats 50 and is open seven days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner...Chef Bruno Lima is liable to serve up anything from Vietnamese chicken salad to shitaake and truffle risotto." Full review
