The newest addition to Victoria’s accommodation market, Centr@l Sky Lounge Apartment Hotel is open for business and is welcoming visitors to its sky-high apartment-style hotel rooms located in the heart of Melbourne.
Sleek in its design and boasting stunning views of the city from almost every room, the stylish Apartment & Hotel complex is a spectacular new fixture on the Melbourne cityscape and is already attracting visitors from across the country.
Constructed and managed by highly respected Brisbane-based hotel chain Centr@l, Sky Lounge Melbourne is the Queensland company’s first move into the Victorian market and has become their most exciting project yet.
The four-level boutique-style Centr@l Sky Lounge comprises 152 luxury studio and one-bedroom apartments complete with every necessary modern convenience – perfect for every traveller, whether venturing to the city for business or pleasure.
Constructed atop the historic old coach terminal on Therry Street, Centr@l Sky Lounge Melbourne is located directly opposite the legendary Queen Victoria Markets, and is just a stone’s throw from some of the city’s most famous precincts and attractions.
Central Apartments & Hotels Director of Sales, Sandra Swatton, said the latest addition to the company’s property portfolio reflects their commitment to quality, luxury and convenience.
“As with all Central Apartments & Hotels, Centr@l Sky Lounge is ideally located for both business and pleasure at the northern entry to the CBD, opposite the Queen Victoria Markets and a mere five-minute stroll from the bustling business and shopping districts, including Bourke Street Mall and Melbourne Central shopping centre.
“The newly-built Central Sky Lounge is the perfect base from which to explore Australia’s ‘most liveable city’, just 35 minutes from Tullamarine airport and with Carlton Gardens, Flagstaff Gardens, the Melbourne museum and renowned Lygon Street dining and entertainment precincts in easy walking distance. And for those visitors who want to venture slightly further afield, there is an abundance of tram, train and bus stops nearby, and car hire companies just around the corner.”
Each of the 152 luxury apartments boast air-conditioning, cable television, DVD player and flat screen TV, ISD/STD direct dial phone and broadband internet connection. All apartments are nine stories above street level meaning most have spectacular uninterrupted views of the city and its surrounds.
The chic and sophisticated Sky Lounge licensed restaurant and bar, located on the 9th floor, serves breakfast and dinner 7 days a week. For those who prefer the comforts of home, each apartment features fully-equipped kitchenettes, cooking facilities and refrigerator, with a guest laundry available and dishwashers and washer/dryers in each one bedroom apartment.
Business travellers will delight in the brand new meeting room facilities, with undercover above-ground car parking and dry cleaning (upon request), making it perfect for on-site meetings and short stays. The conference room has climate control air conditioning, direct access to cafe/kitchen area and broadband access.
