    Would get 5 stars if the directions to find the store were made more clear. 
  • Caitlin6 months ago in Melbourne Museum
    I had a fantastic experience here! The location is super convenient—situated on Level 1 inside the Spencer Street Outlet Centre, making it really easy to find while shopping. Chula was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole visit even more enjoyable. On top of that, the prices are great, so you really feel like you're getting excellent value.

    Right next to the station we were using to get to the airport. Great service. 
  • Jamie11 months ago in Melbourne Museum
    Staff were very helpful and the location was central and easy to get to.
  • Riette1 year ago in Melbourne Museum
    I stored my luggage just before boarding an international flight. The luggage was not stored in a locked room or locker, so I could not technically be sure that it was not tampered with. I couldn't lock every zip, so did a thorough search for items added or removed before checking the luggage in at the airport.
  • Fayyadhah2 years ago in Melbourne Museum
    The location was easy and convenient but perhaps not the most secure. A smooth experience nonetheless.
  • Jenny2 years ago in Melbourne Museum
    Easy to find spot in the CBD that was central but one block back from the hustle and bustle. Drop and pick up was incredibly easy and then a great location to then get taxi/uber to the airport.
  • Christian7 years ago in Melbourne Museum
    A lot of room for bags I brought my surfboard and it was no problem. Really nice people. Interesting spot but worked cool.

Storage and bag rules at Melbourne Museum

Melbourne Museum sits in the Carlton Gardens at 11 Nicholson Street, Carlton, and a typical adult-focused itinerary through the galleries takes about two and a half hours.

The museum is open daily from 9am to 5pm except Good Friday and Christmas Day, so there’s a full day to explore but a definite closing time to plan around. For luggage storage, the museum provides cloakroom lockers around the corner to the left, near the whale skeleton.

The main entrance is step-free, with a flat paved surface, and all exhibition galleries and public spaces have lift or ramp access, so wheeling a bag to the lockers is obstacle-free.

Inside the complex, IMAX Melbourne sits on Rathdowne Street and Mercury Restaurant overlooks the Royal Exhibition Building, both within the same precinct. With Stasher, you can store bags from A$2.99 per bag per day at 10+ locations near Melbourne Museum.

Some top Stasher locations near Melbourne Museum include:

Nearby locations are hosted by postal services, local shops and local venues. Every booking comes with the Stasher Guarantee, which protects your bags up to A$19,000. Stasher storage near Melbourne Museum can be booked through the website or app.

Getting to Melbourne Museum with luggage

Tram routes 86 and 96 drop you at Stop 11 Melbourne Museum on the corner of Nicholson and Gertrude Streets, about a five-minute walk from the entrance, and bus routes 250, 251, and 402 serve Rathdowne Street at roughly the same distance. If you’re coming by train, Parliament Station is the nearest stop, roughly a 15-minute walk from the museum, so the tram or bus is the easier option when arriving with a suitcase.

Nearby destinations and bag planning

Queen Victoria Market is a historic inner-city landmark with over 600 small businesses selling fresh produce, gourmet food, clothing, and souvenirs, open Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with varied hours.

The Melbourne CBD itself has no luggage storage or cloakrooms provided by the City of Melbourne or transport authorities, so leaving a bag with a shop or hotel through Stasher is the practical way to browse the market or the city centre hands-free. The CBD’s rail network runs through Flinders Street Station for suburban services and Southern Cross Station for regional and interstate routes, with Melbourne Central, Parliament, and Flagstaff as the key underground stops if you’re moving between the museum and the market or across town.
