About this property

Nordic Urban Escape steps to Melbourne Central

Smack bang in the middle of the city—hiding above Melbourne’s vibrant city centre on Little Lonsdale Street—you’ll find an urban stay that epitomises minimalist design and a homey ambience, with a balcony for some fresh air and a workdesk with unbeatable views. Take advantage of its ideal location within the Free Tram Zone with the CBD’s bustling bars, graffiti-filled laneways and humming eateries just minutes from your front door.
Spend your days exploring all the world-class restaurants, speakeasies and endless cultural activities the city has to offer; then retreat to the fuss-free comfort of this one-bedroom apartment, where sleek design meets functionality.

A living area is well-lit and equipped with air-conditioning sitting alongside floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and showcases beautiful light-washed timber floors, a plush sofa, chic timber coffee table and a flat-screen TV. Open up the sliding glass doors and step out onto the enclosed balcony to enjoy your morning coffee with a side of fresh air and views of the city’s skyscrapers.

For those in town for business, make use of the sleek, matte black desk and chair to set up your laptop. When you’re not out exploring the endless dining options on your doorstep, cook up a storm in the compact corner kitchen that is fully-equipped with the basics including a gas stove, dishwasher, and oven; and dine at the dining table for four.

Drift off in the primary bedroom, a cosy retreat with a plush double bed dressed in crisp linens, soft bedside lighting, and mirrored built-ins to keep your belongings neatly tucked away. In the second bedroom, also featuring a comfortable double bed, wake up to gentle morning light before settling into the dedicated workspace by the window — perfect for work, journaling, or quiet focus. The apartment includes a modern bathroom with a sleek vanity, toilet, and spacious shower, while an in-unit washing machine and dryer make laundry day easy and convenient
During your stay, you will have the entire apartment to yourself, except for one closed off room. Please make yourself at home!

Parallel to Lonsdale Street—and conveniently located within the Free Tram Zone—your apartment opens the door to the endless possibilities that the world’s most liveable city has to offer: global retailers, boutique businesses, endless eateries, stunning gardens and bustling markets.

For a true Melbourne experience, head to one of the many restaurants that spill onto Hardware Lane: savour an endless array of seafood at Claypots Barbarossa, sample some of the city’s best Italian food at The Hardware Club, or quench your thirst with some local natural wines at Kirk’s Wine Bar.

Meanwhile, local musicians, marvellous street art and otherworldly entertainers can be found in abundance on Bourke Street; a feat that makes Melbourne a unique city that embraces community and culture.

Find fresh air in the many parklands surrounding the concrete playground, including the Fawkner Park or Flagstaff Gardens; while every angle surrounding the property will harness tram stops connecting you with the rest of the city. Plus, Melbourne Central Station is just a two-minute walk away.

Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
