NGV Arts Centre Retreat — Your Private Southbank Escape

Looking for the perfect Melbourne stay with location, lifestyle, and luxury in one? Welcome to NGV Arts Centre Retreat — a stylish, sun-drenched apartment nestled in the heart of Southbank’s thriving Arts Precinct. Whether you're in town for work, culture, or play, this modern retreat puts you at the centre of it all.

Designed for comfort and connection, this spacious, pet-friendly two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment offers a rare combination of privacy and proximity. With bedrooms positioned on opposite sides of the apartment, it’s ideal for two couples travelling together, or families needing a little extra space. No fighting over bathrooms here!

Relax in style with a fully equipped kitchen, high-quality furnishings, central heating and cooling, your own private laundry, and a large undercover balcony boasting views over the nearby Arts Precinct and glimpses of Port Phillip Bay in the distance. Newly installed double-glazed windows mean you’ll enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep — even in the heart of the city.

Outstanding building amenities await: a 25m indoor lap pool, a fully equipped gym, and a rooftop BBQ deck offering spectacular city skyline views. It’s the perfect spot for sunset drinks after a day of exploring Melbourne’s laneways, galleries, and riverside dining.

The location? Unbeatable. You’re steps from the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV), Arts Centre Melbourne, Hamer Hall, Malthouse Theatre, and the leafy Kings Domain Gardens. Federation Square, Crown Casino, and the best of Melbourne’s dining, shopping, and sporting attractions are all within easy reach. Trams stop right outside your door to whisk you to the CBD, St Kilda, or South Melbourne Market.
