Local Areas

Melbourne

Melbourne has so many things of interest such as Melbourne Aquarium, Flinders Street Station, Federation Square (Fed Square), Young & Jackson Hotel, St Andrews Cathedral, Alexandra and Queen Victoria Gardens and Kings Domain, the National Gallery of Victoria and the Victorian Arts Centre and Victoria Barracks.
All Boutique Stays properties are central to the many things Melbourne has to offer.

Richmond

Located a convenient 2 km east of Melbourne central business area on the city fringe, Richmond is an inner suburb that is closest to the sporting precinct. All Saints Richmond is opposite the MCG precinct,and is half way between the Bridge Road and Swan St shopping and cafe strips. It is a brisk walk to the MCG, the Tennis centre, and the Botanic Gardens. Trams provide easy access to the city, the sporting areas and adjacent suburbs. The railway and major feeder roads both pass through Richmond, making for easy access from the airport.

St Kilda/Elwood

If staying Bayside, visit the St Kilda Esplanade Markets, ride the roller coaster at Luna Park, have coffee and cake in Acland Street, dine at one of the many restaurants in Fitzroy Street, or catch the ferry to Williamstown from St Kilda pier. And you can walk for miles along the beach promenade. Magnificent any time of year!

Southbank

If staying in Southbank, you'll find it is so central; just across the Yarra River from Melbourne CBD. The never-ending Southbank Promenade is famous for its world-class restaurants, shops and of course, Crown Casino. In addition, there are multiple food outlets, buskers and arts & crafts events. And the Melbourne Exhibition Centre (better known as Jeff’s Shed) is just across Clarendon Street, opposite the Casino.

General Sightseeing

Visitors can enjoy some fabulous day trips from any of the Boutique Stays locations. We have five gourmet food and wine regions all within an hour and a half's drive; Mornington Peninsula, Yarra Vally, Macedon Ranges, Sunbury and the Geelong/Bellarine Peninsula. Other great things to see and do include enjoying a devonshire tea in The Dandenongs, having a ride on Puffing Billy, viewing the penguins at Phillip Island or taking in the beauty along the Great Ocean Road.
