Melbourne Eastern Suburbs
Only ever really been to the eastern side of Melbourne a few times in the early 90s to see footy at Waverly.
Im thinking of flying over to see a band that plays Doncaster on the Friday night and Chelsea Heights on the Saturday night.
Anyone with a suggestion of where to stay?
I normally stay in the CBD in Melbourne.

Re: Melbourne Eastern Suburbs
Depends what kind of accom you want and how far you want to travel, the east has a few decent motels. Dandenong and Glen Waverley is about half way between Doncaster and Chelsea Heights if you dont want to travel. If you dont mind a little travel id still stay in the CBD, its only a short drive from the CBD to Doncaster and Chelsea Heights.

My old mans goes over to Braeside for work regularly and usually stays at the Chifley Doveton or the Ramada Encore in Dandenong.
The joy of being on the hill drinking beer cannot be understated

Have stayed at both, Chifley quite often has good deals and would be located roughly in the middle of the two locations you are visiting

You'd be better off catching a bus to Donny than the tram, she's a fair hike uphill from there and would be a lot quicker as they go along the freeway
