The Hotel – Heritage grandeur meets modern indulgence in the heart of Melbourne

Step through the gothic archways of InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto and into a world where 1890s gold rush elegance meets five-star sophistication. Housed within a pair of neo-Gothic buildings originally built as wool stores, this architectural icon whispers of Melbourne’s richest days – its original bluestone laneways are still preserved beneath your feet, while a soaring glass atrium floods the space with natural light.

Inside, 253 luxe rooms and suites blend historic charm with contemporary design, each a peaceful retreat above the bustling CBD. Indulge in European-inspired fare at the glamorous Alluvial restaurant, or head to the street-level trattoria, Ronnie’s, for handmade pasta and local wine.

After exploring the nearby laneways, galleries and boutiques, unwind in the rooftop indoor pool, detox in the 24-hour gym or treat yourself to a massage at Botanica Wellness Spa. With unrivalled access to Melbourne’s best, this iconic address is a destination in itself.
