🏨Grand Hotel🏨

Our last night in Melbourne was spent at the Grand Hotel in the Docklands area. It's a short walk to the Southern Cross station and Spencer Street Outlet where the shops and transport are so it's very convenient🛍️ The decor was amazing, and authentic like the other vintage hotels we stayed, but they all have their unique charm🌹 Denis, the owner/manager is such a nice man! He told mummy on the phone that they'd take great care of us, which they did! He also left us a card and some complementary Lindt chocolates. What a lovely touch to make your guests feel welcome!🍫 We would highly recommend the Grand Hotel, or any vintage place we stayed in for that matter. It's like sleeping in a museum. It's so much fun!🏩 #familytravel #familytrip #travel #thingstodo #resorts

Sydney Observatory

Exploring Millers Point, Pyrmont, and Docklands is an absolute win for travelers who crave killer views, amazing eats, and city vibes with a side of relaxation 😍🏞️. From Sydney’s Observatory Hill with its panorama, to gorgeously fresh seafood at Pyrmont’s Sydney Fish Market, then chilling out in Melbourne’s Docklands — this trip is stuffed with highlights! Top Spots to Visit: Observatory Hill (Millers Point NSW 2000, open 10:00-17:00): Whether you’re craving a sunrise selfie or sunset picnic, the city skyline and harbor views here never disappoint! Sydney Fish Market (Corner Pyrmont Bridge Rd & Bank St, Pyrmont NSW 2009, open 07:00-16:00): This spot is legendary for fresh oysters and sashimi. My tip — snack at the outdoor tables and watch the boats unload their catch! Blue Mountains hikes are a must if you’ve got time; day trips leave from Sydney and deliver epic scenery. Sydney Observatory (1003 Upper Fort St, Millers Point NSW 2000, open Thu-Sat 12:00-18:00 (or 12:00-19:30 DST)): Dive into Australia’s stargazing history. Night tours are eye-opening! Melbourne Lifestyle Apartments - Best Views on Collins (893A Collins Street): Super clean, super friendly staff, and the river/harbor views = wow. Great value, especially if you love staying somewhere quiet but close to all the action. Getting Around: Sydney’s public transport is top notch (get an Opal card!). Melbourne’s trams are free in the city center—so hop off and explore Docklands. Eat: Grab lunch at Sydney Fish Market (try the grilled barramundi), and in Melbourne, hit the local cafes along Collins Street for excellent coffee. Tip: Weather changes quickly, so bring layers! And save by using local transport over rideshares. #SydneyViews #MelbourneDocklands #FishMarketEats #TravelSmart #Tripcom
