This is an airport lounge at Melbourne airport international departure near gate 9. I entered it…read morevia priority pass. It is very spacious and not crowded when I went there in the morning around 930am, not sure if this is the norm. Anyway since it is spacious, finding a space shouldn't be a problem. There are good snack, pastries, fruit and hot breakfast like egg, sausage, bacon served during morning. Of course I am having my favorite flat white before flying out from Australia and it really tastes good, Melbourne has the best coffee in the world no matter where you had it. The restroom is clean as well. This is definitely the best plaza premium lounge I have been to, I am glad it's here.

The entrance to the Golden Lounge is certainly deceiving. For those flying on OneWorld, your best…read moreuse of a lounge at MEL is going to have to be Qantas. Similar to CX, the MH Golden Lounge just doesn't really offer as much amenities or prestige as their Australian counterpart. The lounge is small but intimate, so if you are looking for a less crowded option, this is a good option. However, nothing else about the lounge was really dazzling. - There are a different variety of couches scattered throughout the lounge to relax in. - Food was simply Southeast Asian; the prawn potato curry was not terrible, but was running low towards the end of the night. - Spirits were very limited so folks looking for a variety of libations will need to look beyond the Golden Lounge. - Business Center was very small with old PCs and small screens. Great try Malaysia Airlines, but the competition most certainly beats you out here in Melbourne.

For your dining pleasure there is an ample selection of hot and cold food. The medium rare lamb was suburb, not to mention the vast selection of cheeses and chocolates (be sure to pack some baci for your journey) and the boxed dates are flown in fresh from the Middle East. The layout of the lounge is spacious and drenched with light. A perfect view of the runway really adds to the excitement of your upcoming trip.

Australia is known for superlative coffee…read more So why is the best cup of coffee I had in Melbourne in the Air New Zealand lounge at the airport? This makes no sense ... but that's the way it is. The coffee was absolutely superb. The universe operates in strange and mysterious ways. * * * For what it is worth, If you are absolutely positively dying for cheese kranskys, You can get them at the Air New Zealand Lounge. Cheese kranskys are tough little sausages with cubes of cheese inside and a lot of spice. Your jaw will absolutely get a workout. They are greasy in the way you want your breakfast sausage to be a little greasy. * * * I can now knock cheese kransky off of my bucket list. My recommendation to you, Yelp Reader, is that you do not put cheese kransky ON your bucket list. * * * That said, if you are looking for a really really good cup of coffee ...

You can get into this lounge if you (1) have a business class international ticket and (2) have emerald status with a parter airline or qantas. My favorite things about this lounge include the food, service, and the fact that they make announcements when flights are boarding and will actually take you to the gate when the flight is ready to board. Many other lounges don't offer this white glove service which is what sets qantas apart. Thank you to the qantas team for always making long international flights a little bit easier!

Also got a 20 min complimentary back and shoulders massage at the adjoining spa. So nice and a great way to relax before a long international flight. We got to the lounge super early, 6:30am, so it was pretty empty. Service was excellent, breakfast menu was impressive and everything is flavorful and cooked perfectly. The bathroom and shower facilities are super clean and luxurious. Highly recommend you join the Qantas Frequent Flyer program if you travel a lot. The perks are unbelievable.

I've been to quite a few Amex lounges and while the staff here is nice, the food is underwhelming…read more It felt like a regular priority pass lounge honestly. The set up was both style with a few tables, but you kind of feel close to people. I'm not sure but the vibe was off and I left after a while. There were definitely better lounges with better food using priority pass. So I'd recommend skipping this one and visit the others.

This has got to be one of the saddest lounge I have been to. It's small (counted 26 seats) and it…read morehas the bare minimum. Even security warned how sad this lounge was while I was being patted down. Being that this is the only Priority Pass in Terminal 4 (Located near Gate 30), beggars cant be choosers. On a positive note, at least there isn't a sign up turning away Priority Pass holders due to max capacity, as I have been encountering as of late at LAX and Auckland Airport. Restroom and shower: there is none in the lounge. So you'll have to do your business outside. Food: Don't expect any hot meals here. Just candy, chips, and refrigerated yogurt, fruit cups, and wraps. Drinks: You have the usual tea bags and coffee machine. A handful of sodas are available. If you're looking for a bar, well this is not the place. There's about a mini fridge size alcohol selection. However, if you're here before 3pm, you wont be able to access it. (Sorry fellow day drinking travelers!) Small, clean, quiet lounge if Priority Pass is the only access you have. If you have other options, choose that instead!

This is a 3.5 star experience for me. When I visited the lounge on a Sunday afternoon, it was…read morepretty quiet and with lots of places to settle down. I thought the seats were comfortable. The area that I chose to sit in had access to small tables, each with an electrical outlet. However, I noticed that some of the desks were a bit lopsided, and upon closer inspection, the wood was slowly splitting! Hopefully they'll consider replacing the partially broken furniture soon? The food choices were decent. The vegetarian penne pasta looked really good, although I didn't try it. They also offered sushi, but it didn't look like there was fish; it was more like California rolls and maybe imitation crab. My usual go-to's are the wine, cheese, and crackers, which there were a lot of. I appreciated the free, no-password-needed wifi which was very quick (maybe because there was barely anyone there?) I was able to be productive while enjoying the serenity of the lounge. All of the staff were pleasant and my dishes were also cleared in timely manner. Overall, this is a good lounge to relax in before taking off to your final destination!

A light breakfast may consist of yogurt, porridge, toast or pikelets. For lunch, make yourself a ham and cheese sandwich (just like your Nanna might) and accompany it with some potato salad or the soup de jour. After lunch, its buffet central with cheeses, cold meats, salads, dips, and a selection of hot plates too. Imagine, Coles cafeteria but for the sky! Wash it all down with a couple of fine Australian wines and entertain yourself with wifi and who really cares if your flight is delayed. Best of all, its all included in the membership.
