Now Open: Hotel Indigo Is the New Flinders Lane Staycation Spot Boasting a Spanish Tapas Bar
This stylish urban escape pays tribute to fashion photographer Helmut Newton across a sprawling 216-room property.
If you're hunting for a new staycation spot in Melbourne, here's good news: Victoria's first Hotel Indigo has just landed in Flinders Lane, following a sleek $20 million renovation. The global hotel chain originally launched in Australia last year with the opening of its design-led Brisbane outpost.
Bringing the brand's signature focus on art and design to Melbourne, Hotel Indigo on Flinders will nod to its namesake location. Specifically, the hotel takes inspiration from internationally-acclaimed and controversial fashion photographer Helmut Newton across a sprawling 216-room property. The space is decked out with Newton's work and a wealth of commissioned pieces from local artists to pay tribute to fashion, art and runway photography in all its forms.
"We're confident our intriguing Flinders Lane neighbourhood, the Helmut Newton inspired styling and stories of the city artfully weaved into everything we do will fascinate and inspire our guests to discover Melbourne in new ways," General Manager of Hotel Indigo Melbourne on Flinders, Joseph Simmons says.
Amenities run to the likes of Biology haircare, soft bathrobes courtesy of Seed & Sprout and spacious work areas. Breakfast and coffee are served in the lounge daily, while Spanish restaurant and bar BESO offers a contemporary take on traditional Spanish tapas.
"After a multi-million-dollar transformation this exceptional property brings Hotel Indigo to life in Melbourne — the brand inspires creative design and unique guest experiences which our passionate team will embody for each and every guest," CEO of Asia Pacific of Pro-invest Group Jan Smits says.
Hotel Indigo on Flinders is now open for bookings at 575 Flinders Lane, Melbourne. Rates start from $225 per night.
