The Trip
About Melbourne
Laneways, coffee, sport and some of the best dining in the country — all within reach of Southbank.
Melbourne rewards wandering. If you have time either side of the trip, here's where to start.
Dining
Southbank has world-class restaurants at the doorstep, while the CBD laneways — Flinders Lane in particular — hold the city's most celebrated kitchens. Book ahead; the best tables go early.
Coffee & bars
Melbourne takes coffee seriously. Follow the laneways off Collins and Degraves Street. After dark, the rooftop and basement bars hidden through unmarked doors are part of the fun.
Culture
The NGV and ACMI sit within a short walk of the hotel. The Royal Botanic Gardens and the Yarra riverside paths make for an easy morning if you want air rather than galleries.
Sport & shopping
The MCG and Melbourne Park are minutes away, and Chapel Street and Collins Street cover everything from boutiques to flagship labels.
