The Southbank Penthouse Residence

Perched high above Southbank, this four-bedroom Platinum Penthouse turns a Melbourne stay into something closer to a private residence than a hotel room. Wraparound floor-to-ceiling glass pulls the skyline and Port Phillip Bay straight into the open-plan living and dining space, so the view is doing half the work before you've even unpacked. It's built for the kind of stay that needs room to move — executive trips, group bookings, extended visits — without sacrificing privacy. Four bedrooms and four bathrooms mean nobody's sharing a queue for the shower, and the full kitchen with premium appliances means you're not locked into room service if you'd rather cook for the group. By evening, the lounge becomes the obvious gathering point — less "hotel suite," more "the best apartment any of your friends own." Set at 45 Clarke Street, the building puts Crown, the Southbank Promenade, the Yarra, the CBD, the Arts Centre and NGV all within an easy walk — and the MCG, Rod Laver Arena and AAMI Park aren't far behind for event weekends.
