Find Southbank Accommodation: Convenient Base For Central Melbourne Holiday
Melbourne, with a population of over four million, is the second largest city in Australia, and the state capital of Victoria. Melbourne is an important centre for the arts, for commerce, and for sports, entertainment and tourism. The old heart of Melbourne (now the central business district) is located just north of the Yarra River, and on the opposite bank one can find the Southbank district. Until the 90s this was a rather run down industrial district, but it has now been transformed thanks to an urban renewal project, and hotels and other accommodations located here are very convenient for those who wish to explore the city centre during their stay in Melbourne. This article examines some of the options which visitors have for Melbourne Southbank accommodation.
