Marriott has expanded its enviable portfolio of Ritz-Carlton
hotels with the opening a new property in Melbourne, Australia.
Soaring 80 storeys above the city, The
Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne, now Australia’s tallest hotel, is located on the western side of
the city’s CBD.
Arriving at the hotel’s spectacular Sky Lobby
Reception on Level 80 is sure to provide guests with a truly
memorable experience as double-vaulted ceiling and windows
span the entire level, providing guests
with uninterrupted views across Melbourne, from the sweep of Port
Philip Bay to the Yarra below and the mountains in the distance.
The hotel’s 257 guestrooms also allow
the stunning city views to take centre stage, while The Ritz-Carlton Suite, one of the city’s
largest, spans the length of the building and boasts a separate
living and dining room, walk-through wardrobe, in-room sauna and
a private pantry.
Guests staying in Club Level suites will be able
to enjoy
access to the signature Ritz-Carlton Club where
they can work, rest or play while experiencing the most elevated
personalized service and curated culinary journeys throughout the
day. Thoughtful touches such as a towel imbued with seasonal
native fragrances, presented on arrival, are hallmarks of the
club.
“We are
thrilled to bring The Ritz-Carlton brand to Melbourne, and to open
our second hotel in Australia,” said Tina Edmundson, President,
Luxury at Marriott International. “With its destination-driven
design inspired by the city’s past and present, combined with the
finest amenities, exciting culinary offerings and highly
personalized service, The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne exemplifies our
commitment to delivering unparalleled experiences and creating
meaningful memories in inspiring cities, the world over.”
Facilities at the luxury hotel include
three distinct F&B outlets, a spa with six treatment rooms, a stunning
infinity pool with views over
the city, a fitness centre, yoga studio and over
2,500 square metres of meeting and event space.
“I am excited to be opening our doors, welcoming guests and locals
alike to experience Melbourne through a new and unique lens,” said
Antony Page, General Manager, The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne. “We
look forward to creating memories for each and every guest, each
and every day, bringing The Ritz-Carlton brand’s special sense of
hospitality to this legendary city.”
