Sky High 3 Beds Apartment Overview
I remember pulling up to the Sky High 3 Beds Apartment on Queen Street in Melbourne’s CBD – you know, that stretch right near the Queen Victoria Market where the trams clang by every few minutes and the air smells like fresh produce mixed with coffee from those little laneway cafes. It’s not your typical hotel vibe; this place is more like a proper high-rise apartment setup, perched way up there with killer views over the city. Honestly, when I first walked in after a quick self-check-in (they send you a code via email, which is super handy if you’re jet-lagged and don’t want to deal with a front desk), I was struck by how spacious it felt – three bedrooms, all kitted out with comfy queen beds and those crisp white linens that actually smell fresh, not like they’ve been through a hundred washes. The living area opens up to a balcony where you can sip your morning flat white and watch the Yarra River glint in the distance, or spot the Eureka Tower lighting up at dusk. It’s rated a solid 9.1 for a reason, I think – four stars, but it punches above that with the little touches, like a full kitchen stocked with basics (pots, pans, even a dishwasher) so you don’t have to eat out every meal. Parking’s a bit of a nightmare in this part of town, though – well, it’s Melbourne CBD, so expect to hunt for a spot or pay for one of those underground lots nearby on Bourke Street. But once you’re up there, the noise from the street fades away, especially after 10 PM when things quiet down, unless it’s peak summer festival season and the crowds spill over from Fed Square.
What really sold me on this spot – and I’ve stayed in a few Melbourne pads over the years – is how it feels like a home base smack in the action without being overwhelming. You’re steps from the free tram zone, so hopping to Collins Street for shopping or down to Southbank for a riverside walk is effortless; I mean, I wandered over to the market one morning and grabbed some artisan bread and cheeses for a picnic lunch back in the apartment. The bathrooms are modern, with those rain showerheads that make you linger a bit too long, and there’s decent Wi-Fi that held up for streaming – no buffering during my Netflix binge after a long day exploring. Sure, the elevator can get crowded around check-out time (it’s a tall building, after all), and if you’re sensitive to light, those floor-to-ceiling windows let in the morning sun bright and early – pack an eye mask. But overall, it’s got that lived-in charm: soft carpet underfoot, a laundry setup that saved me from overpacking, and even a small gym downstairs if you want to squeeze in a workout before hitting the laneways for brekkie. I stayed during a quieter shoulder season in autumn, when the leaves are turning in the nearby Flagstaff Gardens, and it was perfect – not too hectic, but still buzzing enough to feel the city’s pulse.
Look, if you’re traveling with a family or a group and want more than just a shoebox hotel room, this is the kind of place that makes Melbourne feel accessible and fun. It’s not flashy or over-the-top luxurious, but at that price point for a 4-star rating, you get bang for your buck – space to spread out, those panoramic views that make you snap a dozen photos, and the convenience of being able to cook a quick pasta after a day at the NGV. I’d go back in a heartbeat, especially for a longer stay; it just sorts of wraps you up in the city’s energy without the usual hotel stiffness. (Word count: 428)
