For families, couples and business travellers looking to take a short break this winter, Australia is the place to be with its many exciting daytime and evening attractions including Sydney�s 50th Annual Sydney Film Festival, Brisbane�s Royal Queensland Show, Adelaide�s Festival of Ideas, Melbourne�s Good Food and Wine Show, Canberra�s National Gallery exhibitions and a wide range of internationally recognised attractions.

To celebrate this winter season, Medina Serviced Apartments, Australia's leading owner and operator of serviced apartments, has launched an exciting new package to provide couples and groups with the perfect winter weekend and mid-week getaway, from just $120 per room, per night.

Guests wanting to snuggle up indoors can take advantage of the latest release in-house movies or simply relax to the tunes of their favourite CD�s on the in-house stereo system. When its time to dine, guests can prepare a meal in the fully equipped kitchen or order and eat in rather than going to a restaurant. Medina�s specially designed pantry service allows guests to pre-order groceries and drinks.

After enjoying a cosy night�s sleep, guests will awaken to a delicious continental breakfast delivered to their apartment. For guests wanting to remain active without braving the outdoors, most properties feature a heated pool, gymnasium and sauna.

Guests have a vast range of five to three and a half star apartments to chose from in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Adelaide and Brisbane - all located within close proximity to family entertainment venues and public transport.

Enjoy deluxe accommodation at any one of Medina�s superbly appointed and modern serviced apartments, with complimentary parking, continental breakfast & newspaper daily.
