What it’s good at
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Pedestrian bridges over the Yarra River lead to Flinders Street Station, and the Arts Precinct is ten minutes away.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows look out toward the city or Port Phillip Bay, and suites add deep spa baths.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated 25-meter infinity pool sits on the third floor, lined with floor-to-ceiling glass looking toward the city.
The spa
Leather armchairs with foot baths sit behind sheer curtains for pedicures, and massage treatments are available by request.
At the table
Mesh prepares daily buffets beside an open kitchen, and Tonic Bar pours evening cocktails on an outdoor terrace.
How it began
The property opened in 2003 as a contemporary addition to Crown Melbourne's integrated Southbank resort precinct.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
