What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in The 50 Discovery.
Inside, it is part hotel, part immersive art piece: video installations flicker in the lobby, while burnt orange, deep green, and velvet blue saturate the walls and furniture.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Chinatown dining lanes and Russell Street theatres sit right outside, with Flinders Lane a short walk away.
The rooms
Rooms follow the sun with deep green, blue, or tawny palettes, finished in oiled jarrah timber.
Restaurant
Cleo
Blue tiled tables look across the city skyline from the terrace, where the kitchen serves Mediterranean shared plates.
Restaurant
Marmelo
The ground-floor dining room sits among brick pillars, where an open kitchen cooks wood-fired Iberian dishes.
At the table
Subterranean bar Mr Mills serves late-night cocktails among curved velvet banquettes and glowing neon art, with resident DJs.
How it began
Architecture studio Kennedy Nolan shaped the 16-storey facade using clay bricks fired in a western Victorian kiln.
