Just updated that thread, I ended up booking at the Le Meridien instead since it went down in price to $150 for that date, and happens to be right across the street from where I'm getting married in downtown Minneapolis.  (This is right before I go on my honeymoon).

Sorry if we missed your updated post earlier...

Guesses/comments below:

 

$92 4.5* St Kilda - Albert Park Area

--> Adina Apartment Hotel, Seasons Heritage Melbourne, or the Bayview Eden Melbourne would all be among the possible candidates

 

$128 4.5* Ringwood - Mitcham - Forest Hill

--> Clarion Hotel On Canterbury

 

$136 5* Melbourne - City Center

--> Stamford Plaza Melbourne would be my guess
