Had my young grandchildren flying in from Canada. The apartment had good blackout curtains so children could catch up from jet lag. The apartment was great for quietness for afternoon sleeps. Tram at doorstep means you can get to everywhere easily. One tram takes you a few stops to catch the tram that can take you to the zoo or the aquarium. The tram will take you straight into the city or the Art Gallery/ State Library/ Melbourne university/ train line. Very close to track for Grand Prix/ Botanic Gardens/ Myer concert bowl/ Hamer Hall and Play house are all on the tram route.
The Prahran Market/Chapel Street shopping/ Toorak Road eateries/ major Hospital within walking distance. Supermarket next to Alfred hospital which is about 500 metres through the park. Other easy eating in the same area.
Fawkner Park is your view and BBQs in park are clean and free.
Apartment play equipment for toddlers is perfect and safe! Pool great for laps or just relaxing. Great stay!
