Within Art Series Hotel's Larwill Studio, the bright and playful work of Australian artist David Larwill complements and intersects with modern design and views of green parklands. Located within reaching distance of Melbourne Zoo, Melbourne University, Flemington Racecourse and the Queen Victoria Markets, this is a delightful hotel that's also capable of hosting meetings and corporate events. Dedicated to David Larwill, the Larwill Studio takes its inspiration from the respected artist's studio. Art fills the many accommodation rooms and meeting spaces of the hotel, making it a location for presentations and workshops that manages to be much more interesting than the usual boardroom or blank office space. There are two meeting rooms available at The Larwill Studio, which can be used individually, or joined together to make one larger function room.

Clean, neat, fun and fresh hotel. Comfy beds and quite rooms. Staff were friendly. Although disappointed the hotel bar/restaurant wasn't open for drinks or quick snacks or dining on a weekend, only breakfast available 7am -11am, which we thought was quite odd. And we were only handed a list of local pubs, after I asked about food/drinks, or one suggestion was to go to the local food court (ummm no thank you). Most suggested fooderies were minimum 400-500 metres walk away and then some, and the 2 we visited that were closest were closed. Not a great way to enjoy our stay or spend time between a wedding ceremony and the late arvo reception, which is why we booked The Larwill as in a convenient location to wedding and had a bar/ restaurant to by our time between. Breakfast was very tasty generous serving size. However, coffee in cafe needs to be addressed, as too milky and bland, sorry tough coffee critic here, I like coffee in my coffee so to speak. Although a few tweaks could be made, the overall stay was pleasant and beds comfortable.

Faultless accommodation with outstanding service. We have just concluded a 4 night stay at the Larwill Studio, our second visit this year. Unfortunately our daughter became ill while we were here, vomiting at about 3am all over the bed. The concierge allocated us a spare room when I asked for some fresh sheets so I could remake the bed. She didn't want us to try to sleep in a smelly room. Nothing was too much trouble and they cleaned out initial room beautifully so we could return. The beds are sumptuously soft and the view over the parklands is definitely worth the small difference in price. The hospital has numerous eateries and a supermarket. These do get closed off from the hotel when the hospital closes to visitors at 8pm but it's handy when you can access it. Highly recommend this hotel.

I was genuinely impressed by my stay at the Larwill Studio. It exceeded expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly and available around the clock, a level of service you don’t often find these days. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-designed, with beautiful artwork that added a unique and welcoming touch. It was also spotlessly clean, far above the standard I’ve experienced at other places in the area. Another major plus, the tram stop is right out the front, making it super convenient for getting around Melbourne. Honestly, this is the only place I’ll stay in this area from now on. Highly recommend!

We had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, bathroom was clean. The foye was beautiful. Hotel is adjusted to Melbourne Children' s Hospital, so it is convenient if you need to take your child to the hospital. We rented a car and paid 28 per night to park at the hotel. Did not go to the cafe, but there is one just at the hotel. The hotel is a good value for money.

Very cosy place. My family and I love the place so much. The hotel is very quite at night. The design of the hotel and the room are very stylish. The bathroom is very spacious. Hotel parking and road side parking available. Love the stay very much. Will definitely recommend to my family and friends.
