Ken’s apartment is absolutely stunning, set overlooking the river and the Melbourne skyline. The room and private bathroom are spotless, with a very comfy bed, lots of storage space and a balcony with breathtaking views, especially at night.
Ken and Michelle are wonderful hosts - they stayed up late to let us in when our flight was delayed and are full of local tips, advice and insider info on sights, food and drink and day trips from the city.
It’s a scenic, 20-minute walk or a 10-minute free tram ride into the centre, but if you’d rather stay closer to home there are plenty of riverside restaurants and bars a stone’s throw away.
Definitely our top pick for a place to stay while in Melbourne.
