This went very well. The view over the yachts was very good. The staff were helpful & the 'studio' I stayed in had everything you could want (apart from the balcony which was under repair). Close to food & open space. Very likely to stay there again.

Great venue for a wedding and it was lovely staying overnight. The rooms are a bit dated but reasonably priced for the lovely area close to the Yacht Club. The rooms have great views, and the studio room we stayed in was well equipped with kitchenette, fridge, dishes, dining and lounge areas. The beds are really comfortable. The bedroom area can be closed off from the rest of the room, making it dark and quiet. We did not hear the Karaoke going on at the end of the hall !! We look forward to returning soon.

The front door of the property is mere feet from the pier and a beautiful park and located a half block from the cafe district where all kinds of delicious food from around the world was available. This area felt safe and it was just a short walk to the incredible coastline and beaches as well as a beautiful botanical garden. The train station is also only a few blocks away that will take you right into downtown Melbourne. Highly recommend!
