Coming Soon: The CBD's New Boutique Hotel Melbourne Place Will Boast a Sleek Basement Bar and Rooftop Restaurant
The 14-storey hotel has brought on hatted Young Chef of the Year Nicholas Deligiannis to run the culinary program.
Melbourne Place has been in the works for a few years now, but the team behind this boutique hotel has finally announced that it will open in October 2024.
The new hotel on Russell Street will be 14 stories high, have 191 luxury rooms, and house a basement bar and rooftop restaurant that are set to become destinations in their own right.
When it comes to places to rest their heads, guests can choose from a number of room formations, from simple rooms to a totally lavish penthouse. The team isn't shying away from colour or multiple textures throughout the rooms, and is adding luxury elements with bespoke finishes and furnishings.
Melbourne Place is also taking its drinking and dining destinations very seriously. Hatted Young Chef of the Year Nicholas Deligiannis (ex-Audrey's) has been enlisted to run the hotel's culinary program, giving particular attention to its rooftop restaurant Mid Air.
When it comes to the ground-floor dining room and basement bar, Ross and Sunny Lusted (Sydney's Woodcut and Aman Resorts) are in charge. They haven't shared their concepts for these spaces yet, but we expect them to be totally luxe — like each of the other venues they've worked on.
"Neighbouring the city's best restaurants, bars, nightlife and retail, [Melbourne Place] will be the place to be, providing guests with a unique lifestyle and cultural experience situated among the best offerings in the city. It is the ultimate location to experience the pinnacle of Melbourne's life and spirit," says Executive General Manager Tracy Atherton.
Melbourne Place is slated to open in October 2024 at 130 Russell Street, Melbourne. For more information, visit the venue's website.
