Highrise best location 2baths Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Highrise best location 2baths, you immediately get that modern apartment vibe rather than traditional hotel stuffiness. It’s one of those four-star properties that feels more like staying at a well-appointed friend’s place — if your friend happened to live in a sleek high-rise with killer views. The name pretty much tells you what you’re getting: height, prime positioning, and yes, two full bathrooms which honestly makes such a difference when you’re traveling with someone else.

Location & Neighborhood

A’Beckett Street puts you right in the thick of things in Melbourne, and I mean really in the heart of it all. You’re literally steps from the Central Business District, which means you can walk to most of the major attractions without breaking a sweat. What I love about this spot is how couples seem to gravitate toward it — there’s something about being able to stroll to dinner in Chinatown or catch a show in the theater district that just works for romantic getaways. The trams run right nearby too, so even when you don’t feel like walking, getting around the city is pretty effortless.

The Space

The apartment setup is what really sets this place apart from your typical hotel room. You’ve got a proper kitchen with everything you need if you want to grab groceries from Queen Victoria Market and cook something up — though honestly, with Melbourne’s food scene right at your doorstep, you might not use it much. Those two bathrooms I mentioned? Game changer, especially in the morning when you’re both trying to get ready. The whole space feels airy and modern, with floor-to-ceiling windows that make the most of that high-rise location.

What Makes It Work

The building itself has that contemporary Melbourne aesthetic — clean lines, good materials, nothing too flashy but definitely well-designed. There’s parking available, which if you know Melbourne’s CBD, you’ll appreciate how rare and valuable that is. The views change depending on which floor you’re on, but even from the lower levels, you get a real sense of the city sprawling out around you. It’s the kind of place where you can actually picture yourself living, not just passing through for a few nights.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back is that combination of location and space — you’re not cramped into a tiny hotel room, but you’re also not stuck out in some residential area where nothing’s happening. The fact that couples consistently rate the location so highly tells you something about the neighborhood’s energy and walkability. You can grab coffee on Collins Street, explore the laneways with their street art and hidden bars, or just people-watch from one of the nearby cafes. It’s Melbourne living without the lease commitment, and honestly, sometimes that’s exactly what you want from a city break.

  • Lucy from Australia (9/10)

    The lock box method was great as it was easy for us to check in even with late arrival times! The hosts were amazing and facilitated everything we needed! The value for money was literally insane and I don't think I'd stay anywhere else after this!!

  • Pratap from Australia (9/10)

    Nice and clean and great view. Don’t have to go to Skydeck to see Melbourne view because you can see everything from this building.

  • Jun from Malaysia (9/10)

    The environment and layout of the room. The views from it and its location.

  • Nam from Vietnam (9/10)

    Perfect location. Very close to Queen Victoria market. Metro supermarket and Asian grocery are in the same building. Spectacular view of Melbourne from the apt.

  • Megan from Australia (9/10)

    I was worried about the lift wait times and beds due to some reviews however the beds were fine even though firm and lifts were super fast the entire four days. Key collection very straight forward. Great location for what we needed. Room was nicely styled and had everything we needed for a 4 night stay (even washer/ dryer) Heaps of pillows made the bed comfier. Aircon was perfect and just had the blinds closed prior to the 35 degree afternoons and heat in there was no issue. Really great communication from the person and fast responses to my questions. Highly recommend.

  • Lin from Australia (9/10)
