The Hamptons Apartments – St Kilda

The Hamptons Apartments – St Kilda Overview

First Impressions

The Hamptons Apartments – St Kilda sits right on Chapel Street, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better if you tried. I mean, you’re literally in the heart of one of Melbourne‘s most vibrant neighborhoods, with trams rolling past your doorstep every few minutes. The building itself has this modern, clean look that fits perfectly with the area’s mix of trendy cafes and vintage shops. You know what struck me first? How quiet the apartment was despite being on such a busy street — the soundproofing actually works.

The Space

These aren’t your typical hotel rooms, and that’s exactly the point. Each unit feels like a proper Melbourne apartment, complete with a full kitchen that’s actually usable (not one of those tiny hotel kitchenettes that can barely handle instant coffee). The layout is smart too — there’s enough space to spread out without feeling like you’re rattling around in an oversized place. The furnishings strike that sweet spot between stylish and comfortable, though I’ll be honest, the couch could use a bit more cushioning for long Netflix sessions.

Location Perks

Chapel Street is where St Kilda really comes alive, and staying here puts you right in the thick of it. You can walk to the beach in about ten minutes, or head the other direction toward the Botanic Gardens. The tram stop is literally outside your door — the number 78 will get you into the city center in twenty minutes, while the 96 connects you to the rest of Melbourne’s inner suburbs. There’s something really satisfying about being able to grab groceries at Coles downstairs or duck into one of the countless bars and restaurants without needing to plan your whole evening around transport.

Neighborhood Vibe

St Kilda has this interesting mix going on — part bohemian, part upscale, with just enough grit to keep things interesting. During the day, Chapel Street buzzes with coffee culture and shopping, but come evening, it transforms into something more dynamic. The Sunday markets at St Kilda Esplanade are worth the walk, and Luna Park’s vintage charm never gets old (even if you don’t ride anything). What I really appreciate is how the area manages to feel both touristy and authentically local at the same time.

Why Guests Love It

The numbers don’t lie — couples especially seem to fall for this place, and after staying here, I get it. There’s something romantic about having your own little Melbourne pad, complete with a proper kitchen for morning coffee and enough space to actually unpack your bags. The four-star rating feels spot-on; it’s polished and well-maintained without being stuffy or overly formal. Plus, the building management is responsive when you need something, which matters more than you’d think when you’re staying somewhere for more than a night or two. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a temporary local rather than just another tourist passing through.
