According to hotel General Manager, Tim Bilston, this makeover sees the boutique hotel taken to the next level in food and beverage, as well as public spaces.
“We now have spaces that will appeal to every customer. Our restaurant and bar areas really embrace the modern Melbourne feel, and our new menus which are launching soon are exciting and innovative.”
“The new function spaces are so flexible, they can be used for weddings, events, cocktail parties or conferences… with the addition of the events pavilion space that can be split into 3 separate spaces as well as 4 new private dining areas, we can accommodate everyone.”
“Coupled with our 111 guest rooms and suites, and our location on the Yarra River, just a stone’s throw from the CBD, MCG and Richmond’s buzzing heart, it has really made us a unique destination for locals and visitors alike,” he said.
