Dining is a few minutes walk away from the Melbourne Exhibition Centre, and our suggestion is to walking along Southbank / the Yarra River - which is all part of the Crown complex and, for your guidance, we now list names of but a few restaurants and their details should you wish to make an advanced booking.

I have personally visited this hotel and inspected the accommodation. It is an old building that has been newly renovated, being very reasonably priced - although I should warn everyone the bathrooms are small - and bedrooms are of average size. This is reflected in the rates. Please quote "Australian Quilt Market" at time of booking.
