Welcome!
Welcome to Victoria Green View.
Our apartment is situated in the heart of Melbourne’s modern Docklands precinct, within walking distance to Marvel Stadium (7 min), Southern Cross Station (10 min) and Victoria Harbour (2 min).
We are located within the Free Tram Zone, with the D17 tram stop (Merchant St / Collins St) 2 min from the front door providing easy access to the CBD.
Overlooking Victoria Green, we are close to Woolworths and one block from the waterfront in both directions.
Victoria Green View provides a home away from home, with high-speed Wi-Fi suitable for short or extended, recreation or work visits.
Our Neighbourhood
We overlook the Victoria Green park and public space, including the Docklands Community Garden. Woolworths supermarket is around the corner (2 min walk) and we have a range of restaurants and cafes within a short stroll.
Docklands is a modern, vibrant community with restaurants, cafes, shopping centres, walking and cycling tracks, and 3 marinas. Take some time to walk around and explore the local street art and sculptures. Ride your bike along the Capital City Trail which will take you through the city and surrounding parkland.
Getting Around
AIRPORT (SKYBUS)
If you are taking the Skybus service from Melbourne Airport, we are a short walk from the Southern Cross Station/Skybus terminal. Exit the Skybus terminal and walk through Southern Cross Station towards the Bourke Street exit. From there, walk towards Marvel Stadium (keep the stadium on your right) and you will emerge at the corner of Harbour Esplanade and Bourke Street.
SOUTHERN CROSS STATION
We are a short walk from Southern Cross Station – exit the station either through the main promenade and turn right to walk down Collins Street, or at the Bourke Street end of the platforms and turn left to walk past Marvel Stadium to Bourke Street.
TRAMS
If you want to catch the tram, you have a few choices.
Your local tram stop is D17 at the corner of Merchant Street/Collins Street (2 min walk from the apartment). From the D17 tram stop, you can:
- Take the 48 Tram along Collins Street to East Melbourne, or
- Take the 11 Tram along Collins Street towards Preston
For a change of pace, take a short walk to catch the 75 Tram along Harbour Esplanade to Waterfront City and the north side of the CBD.
BRING YOUR CAR
If you bring your own car, please plan ahead.
There is no parking at the apartment, but you have several opportunities for local street parking and undercover car parks.
We regularly use Wilson Parking at 800 Bourke Street and 818 Bourke Street – both are across the street from the apartment, allow online bookings and have different pricing options. Alternatively, Marvel Stadium has plenty of undercover parking and is a short walk from the front door.
If you want to use the CARE Car Park at 55 Merchant Street, we suggest you check the pricing and time limits first.
CAR SHARING
We have a GoGet car share parking bay at the building.
Exit the front of the building, turn left and walk around the corner. The GoGet bay is clearly marked at the edge of the Victoria Green public space.
WALK, CYCLE
Melbourne’s Capital City Trail runs close by and allows you to walk, run or cycle along a 29 km loop that circles Melbourne and its inner suburbs. This is a great way to explore the city and some of our favourite landmarks – Southbank, Yarra River, Victorian Arts Centre, Royal Botanical Gardens, the MCG, Melbourne Park, Como House, Herring Island Environmental Sculpture Park, Burnley Gardens, Dights Falls, Yarra Bend Park, Abbotsford Convent, Royal Park, Moonee Ponds Creek, Fitzroy North, Brunswick, Docklands, Polly Woodside Maritime Museum and the Exhibition Centre.
