The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne

The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne occupies the city’s western skyline as one of Australia’s tallest hotels, offering panoramic views that stretch across Port Phillip Bay, the Yarra River and beyond. Its arrival marks a significant moment for Melbourne’s hospitality scene, bringing the Ritz-Carlton brand’s signature elegance to a city defined by culture and design.

The interiors, by BAR Studio, reflect Melbourne’s identity through local materials, art and storytelling. Dark timbers, stone finishes and commissioned works by Australian artists create a mood that is both sophisticated and deeply contextual. Guest rooms are expansive, with floor-to-ceiling windows, generous bathrooms and a design language that emphasises comfort and clarity.

Cuisine is led by Atria, a restaurant that highlights Australian produce with creative technique, and Cameo, a cocktail bar perched high above the city. Menus are curated to reflect seasonality and provenance, with service that balances refinement and warmth. Private dining and in-room options extend the culinary journey.

Wellness and leisure are integral. The Ritz-Carlton Spa includes a pool with horizon-edge views, while fitness and yoga spaces reflect the brand’s commitment to holistic wellbeing. Event facilities, including a grand ballroom, position the hotel as a destination for both business and celebration.

Service follows the Ritz-Carlton tradition: anticipatory, polished and personal. Staff are trained to create experiences that feel memorable and meaningful, delivering international standards with an understanding of Melbourne’s unique rhythm.

The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne redefines the city’s skyline while reinforcing its identity as a global destination for culture, design and hospitality.
