Adelphi Hotel's Revamped Pool Deck Is the Ultimate Way to Escape the Scorching CBD Streets
The pool's been extended to 13.5 metres and you can have cocktails delivered right to your deck chair.
Summer might have returned with a vengeance, but so has the Adelphi Hotel's newly revamped pool deck and you'll be hard-pressed to find a more worthy rooftop haunt for the balmy days to come.
Fresh from an extensive winter reno, the Flinders Lane space is bigger and better than ever. That famed pool has been amped up to a length of 13.5 metres — and yes, one end still extends impressively over the laneway below.
With space for about 70 guests, the new-look deck's been styled by the team at Gloss Creative, with chic al fresco furnishings from the likes of Grazia & Co. chosen to complement those sweeping city views.
Visitors can now order eats and drinks from Adelphi's new poolside menus, and have them delivered right to their deck chair, so as not to miss a second of quality lounging time. The best part? You don't even need to be staying at the hotel to enjoy this little slice of poolside paradise. Non-guests can access the pool outside of events for a tidy $35, including towel hire. Which is really not that huge of a price to pay when the world is burning at street level. Keep it in mind for Melbourne's next 40-plus-degree day.
Find the pool deck on the top level of The Adelphi Hotel, 187 Flinders Lane, Melbourne. It's open from 6am until 10pm daily.
