Good place to stay in Melbourne?

Postby Tenchi » Mon May 10, 2010 3:07 pm

Hey guys,

I'm attending a wedding photography workshop in Melbourne by one of the best photographers (in my opinion) in Australia.

I'll be doing it on July the 4th so I could probably meet some CJers while I'm at it.

But does anyone know of any good (and cheap) places to stay?

I could probably get you a room at Arrow on Swanston.

We house some visiting Professors to our group there and it's very nicely located with Lygon Street behind you and a 5 minute walk to VIC Mart. You'll also be about 7minutes from the center of the city.

They usually charge about A$100 a night for an apartment styled room. PM me if you want to get something through me.

Whenever I used to stay in Melbourne I went to this place at South Yarra -http://www.hotelclaremont.com/budget-hotel-rooms.htm

The $15 or so they charge per day for off-street car parking is reasonable and there is a tram service out the front door or train nearby if you want to use public transport to get around.

@lancervr: If you're smart about it, what some of my friends did was get a room with 2 beds and a couch and another guy brought a sleeping bag. Ended up paying A$99 for 4 guys to share a room. Abit tight but if you're on a budget it's great! Just 2 of your check in then you bring the other 2 guys back. None the wiser after!

LOL :D

No need for boxing ring, just send them on the trains for the day. Whoever gets back to Flinders Street alive is the winner :lol: I know places that let you take out the ring for a while other than a carpark :D
