Film & production accommodation
Cast, senior crew and production executives carry the production. Westprecinct provides accommodation for film cast and crew in Sydney and Melbourne: managed serviced residences with the privacy, security and flexible, shoot-length terms a production requires, and one point of contact.
Near the production bases. In Sydney, our Rozelle and Balmain residences are close to Callan Park, where the heritage Kirkbride buildings are used for film and television production offices, sets and locations, and to the Canal Road Film Centre in Leichhardt, just south of Iron Cove. Disney Studios at Moore Park is a drive across the city.
Further west along the Parramatta River, our Rhodes, Wentworth Point, Breakfast Point and Cabarita residences are close to Concord, where the heritage Thomas Walker Hospital buildings in Concord West and the grounds of Concord Hospital have been used as screen locations.
In Melbourne, our Toorak, Armadale and Malvern residences are close to South Yarra, home to Network 10’s Melbourne studios at the Como Centre and to Como House, a National Trust estate used for filming. Our Brighton residences are a short drive from Rippon Lea Estate in Elsternwick, another National Trust filming location. Docklands Studios Melbourne is a drive across the city.
When a production books, the production company earns W Circle standing, so crews returning for the next shoot are recognised from the first night.

Yes. Terms are matched to the production schedule, and stays can continue by arrangement, subject to availability and the guest terms, as a schedule evolves.
Where are the residences located for productions?
Across Sydney, including the harbour, the CBD and the inner west close to Callan Park and Concord, and Melbourne’s bayside and inner south-east, convenient to each city’s main production facilities.
