“Great location, tram only 2 mins walk, short journey to CBD. Lots of restaurants and cafes right at the door. Comfortable for a stay with kids or another couple. Nice and quiet but in the middle of the action.”

Danny

Located in the iconic Dimmeys Tower this exquisite two-bedroom apartment oozes Italian culture and style, all within the beating heart of Richmond. The landmark building lends itself to the superbly curated interior, which is highlighted by the historic internal wall boasting the original signage from Dimmeys’ drapery division. Italian furnishings complement the feature arch windows which overlook the bustling bohemia of Swan Street.

I have been fortunate to have grown up in an environment of Art, Music and culinary experiences. I love travelling the world and staying at 5-star hotels that offer that experience better than home. Therefore, I know how travellers feel when they arrive from long trips. That's why I have created The Sophia, an apartment full of welcoming essentials to help travellers relax and get started during their stay in Melbourne. I’m available to answer your questions, so ask away.
