"Set in the heart of St. Kilda's café, bar, and club precinct, Tolarno Hotel was once owned by artists who ran a gallery out of the space, and it still has an idiosyncratic artistic bent."

Lonely Planet
"Tolarno was once the site of Georges Mora’s seminal gallery, Tolarno. The fine-dining restaurant downstairs now bears the name of his artist wife Mirka, as well as her original paintings."

Don't book a room at the front of the hotel if you're a light sleeper.

The staff is often overworked, making special requests difficult, and housekeeping needs to step it up a notch.
