Book The Canvas Apartment Hotel in Melbourne

The Canvas Apartment Hotel offers units like One-Bedroom Apartments, Executive Suites, Deluxe Suites, and Two-Bedroom Suites. Each room includes a kitchenette, private bathroom, washing machine and dryer, free WiFi, and a smart TV. Some suites overlook the river or the city skyline from higher floors. The bed in the Deluxe Suite has been described as cloud-like, though some guests noted soft pillows or two single beds pushed together as a double.

Guests can use the gym on the top floor, which has basic equipment like treadmills and weights, plus a balcony with views of the city. There is no spa, pool, or restaurant on site, but reception staff can provide information on nearby dining.

The hotel sits in the middle of Melbourne's CBD, with a tram stop right outside the front door inside the free tram zone. Southern Cross Station is a 5-minute walk, and Flinders Street Station is about 15 minutes away. Eureka Tower is 1 km away, Crown Casino is a 5-minute walk, and the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre is a 13-minute walk. Bourke Street Mall and shops like 7-Eleven and Asian grocery stores are within walking distance.

Reception is open from 8:00 to 20:00 daily, with after-hours check-in via email instructions and a key retrieval system. Staff speak English, Malay, and Chinese. Services include luggage storage, paid off-site private parking, and elevator access. There is no room service, concierge, or kids' club, but the hotel provides a washing machine and dryer with detergent in each room.

The property is next to the tram and train lines on Flinders Street, so noise from trains, trams, and street racers can be heard-especially on lower floors or rooms facing the street. Windows are double-glazed but may not block all sound. Rooms on higher floors or facing the back of the building are quieter. Some guests reported the air conditioner struggles to cool the bedroom in the One-Bedroom Apartment, and the blind cords are high (hard to reach for people under 5'4"). The building has two elevators, but one has been out of service during stays, causing longer wait times.
