What some of our guests have said about Charan Lane @ Kensington:

Excellent property
Charan Lane suited our needs for our trip to the Melbourne Cup walking distance to the course, train to the city a short walk away and a small shopping centre with everything we needed. Some great restaurants also close buy, thoroughly recommend - Barbara, Brisbane

Great Location. Comfortable Stay. Highly Recommend
I am very pleased with our stay in Charan Lane @ Kensington. It was a very nice location, with good views and nice walk-through surroundings. We found it a pleasantly quiet location, considering being so close to the buzzing Melbourne CBD. The house was so inviting, clean and has a homey and welcoming atmosphere. It was a good place to rest after a day of exploring the city. The information folder @ the house provided a great guide to local food, shops and things to do during our stay. The free wi-fi at the house was an additional bonus worth mentioning. Anne provided excellent directions, and very good communications throughout. We will be sure to use Charan Lane again. - Bianca

Still best place we've ever stayed.
We've stayed at Charan Lane several times and each time has been delightful. Great location and facilities. Very quiet yet easily accessible to the city. Anne is lovely! Would highly recommend - Lee - Sydney

Convenient & Comfortable

This was the perfect place to stay for our recent business event at the Melbourne Showgrounds. Once through the doors it felt like home! Just very comfortable. Just a short walk to hotels and eateries in Kensington. Again, perfect! Thanks to Anne & Chuck
