    Mr Strata, tried to find the case you are refering to on Austlii, but unsuccessfully.

    Michelle, the people running serviced apartments must have a council development approval to do it and if they do, it's not illegal. If they don't, the council will eventually take them to task as the have done to Waldorf serviced apartments.

    Serviced apartments are a step away from holiday rentals. That's an organised multi-apartment business with hotel-like characteristics. The council usually requires special design, such as separate access for serviced apartments, and there are other considerations. Most councils class serviced apartments as commercial activity, whereas holiday-rentals remain residential.
