As you aproach this gorgeous hotel situated on beautiful Collins Street; it's modern contempory look and funky boutique feel is warm and very inviting. It is perched on top of City Square and abuzz with sidewalk cafe's and all that Melbourne CBD has to offer.
The hotel is within walking distance to Flinders Street Station, Federation Square, some of Melbournes best restaurants and bars and shopping experiences. We stayed in a Deluxe Room on the Starwood Preffered Guest Floor overlooking Collins Street, floor to ceiling bay view windows and french doors overlooking Collins street. The rooms are fresh, modern, very clean and of course you will enjoy the Heavenly® Rain Shower and signature Westin Heavenly® King Size Bed. The rooms are spacious and comfortable.
Must do's in Melbourne !
