Melbourne and Perth accomodation??
Hi everyone...
We are all heading off to Melbourne and Perth for a reccie over xmas and new year and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of decent but reasonable accomodation. I am having real trouble at the moment!! Have been into the travel agents, going over and over brochures and just not getting anywhere!! The problem is that we have 3 children, which complicates things no end, so i was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions?
We ideally need to be pretty central, and were planning to be in melbourne 20th dec until 29th, then head on to perth until 6th jan-any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Claire

Try CityStay apartments in Perth. They're geared for family from what I understand. Really central on Wellington St, right across from a shopping mall.

Unfortunately what with Xmas & the summer hols that's a busy time in Melbourne
However, with 3 littlies, your best bet might be a serviced apartment. Have a look at the Quest web site for starters: http://www.questhero.com.au/
I think there are several Quest apartment blocks well located for the center of Melbourne; if you search on Quest Melbourne there should be several to look at.
There's also a good choice of serviced apartments in South Yarra, which has a good tram & train link with the city (about 5 mins train ride to the CBD). Here's a couple:

Good luck & hope you all enjoy your trip!
