Le Méridien Melbourne

Le Méridien Melbourne has quickly become one of Australia's best luxury hotels, bringing the global brand – found in destinations from Monaco to the Maldives – to Bourke Street. The five-star hotel offers 235 rooms and suites, each shaped by a mid-century aesthetic.

The hotel's standout feature is its show-stopping rooftop pool framed by views over Parliament House and the city centre. Now one of Melbourne's most photographed hotel pools, it has become a defining part of the Le Méridien experience. Above it sits the two-bedroom palace suite, the top-floor presidential suite regularly chosen by dignitaries, touring artists, and sports stars.

Dining centres on DOLLY, the trendy underground European restaurant and late-night cocktail bar where tables fill fast, led by Executive Chef Hervé Borghini – born in Bordeaux and trained in Michelin-starred kitchens. With two dedicated event floors and a strong wedding following, the hotel has become a cultural meeting point for locals and travellers alike.
