The perfect excuse for you to take a day off work and get away (woo!).

There’s a lot to love about Melbourne: the food, the nightlife, the art, and the fashion are just the start.

To celebrate the removal of the infamous ‘ring of steel’ and to celebrate the fact regional Victorians can explore the great city once more, we’re treating one lucky Forte reader (and their lucky partner or BFF) to a night in the CBD at Citadines on Bourke.

Located in the heart of Melbourne, the award-winning Citadines on Bourke is the epitome of Melbourne; vibrant and modern. Located in the heart of the city, the Apart’hotel is in the perfect location to experience all the world’s most liveable city has to offer.

Foodies will relish being a five-minute walk from Flinders Lane, home to many renowned eateries and stylish basement bars, while art lovers can take a short walk to the famed National Gallery of Victoria. For retail therapy, you’re in the prime location for multiple trips to Bourke Street Mall, Emporium Melbourne, Melbourne Central and the QV shopping precincts. However, if you’re just keen to embrace the all-encompassing vibe of the city, you can simply go for a stroll and take in the city’s street-art adorned laneways just a stone’s throw away, and let the precinct’s celebrated performers provide an entertaining soundtrack to your sightseeing.
