Fitzroy Accommodation

Boutique apartments steps from Brunswick Street, Gertrude Street and the best of inner north Melbourne

Why Stay in Fitzroy

Fitzroy is Melbourne’s oldest suburb and still its most creative. About 2 km from the CBD, it packs Victorian terraces, street art, independent shops, galleries and some of the city’s best food and drink into a few walkable blocks.

Stay here and you live like a local: croissants on Rose Street in the morning, a gallery on Brunswick Street in the afternoon, dinner on Gertrude Street and a drink at the pub on the way home. No taxis needed.

We have five boutique apartments in Fitzroy, each one styled individually, kitted out with everything you need and properly cleaned between every stay.
