Nestled amongst the hustle and bustle of Melbourne, Pullman Melbourne on Swanston offers an unparalleled blend of sophistication, comfort and vibrant city life. For those seeking an extraordinary experience in one of Australia’s most dynamic cities, this hotel is the place to be, whether you are traveling for business or pleasure.
Located on a vital artery of Melbourne, Swanston Street is a prime spot in the heart of Melbourne lined with an array of shops, cafes, cultural landmarks and constant activity. The hotel’s location provides easy access to all of Melbourne, with the tram stop right outside, the city’s renowned arts scene, gardens, theaters, galleries, and live music venues are just a stone’s throw away.
The moment you step off Swanston Street and into Pullman, you are greeted by an ambiance of elegance and modern design. With a variety of rooms and suits, I was spoiled by receiving a room with the most perfect view of the city, no matter the time of day. No matter the type of traveler, or the type of comfort lover you are, there is a room to cater for everyone’s needs, no matter how particular.
Walking first into the bathroom to see a rainfall shower and a bathtub big enough for at least two, where I would have happily spent my whole weekend, I was not disappointed when I wandered through to the bedroom where a king size bed with some of the softest sheets I have ever laid upon awaited me. Whether you have come to the city for a packed schedule or just to relax, this room will make you feel right at home.
With so many options awaiting you in the CBD, you may think to skip the hotel’s signature restaurant, Eva’s Restaurant & Bar; my advice, don’t. The chic and inviting setting of Eva’s is only the beginning to your dining experience. Here you will find yourself indulging in a gourmet dinner, or if you don’t have time for a dinner, revel in their breakfast buffet or enjoy a leisurely lunch before heading out to explore more of what Melbourne has to offer.
For those who enjoy a more relaxed dining experience, head up to their rooftop bar Blossom, where you will find a selection of delicious cocktails, and woodfired pizza. This is the perfect spot to experience one of Melbourne’s iconic sunsets as you sit back and unwind after a day in the city, or get ready to explore the nightlife Melbourne is famous for.
Want to elevate your experience even more, find yourself indulging in everything level 15 has to offer with the ‘Elevate Club Lounge.’ Proud winner of the “Best Club Lounge of the Year” Award, Tourism Accommodation Australia, this is your chance to take your Pullman experience to the next level. From breathtaking views, and all day dining, you can also enjoy an ever-changing calendar of events and specials, exclusive to level 15. I may have had once too many chocolates at chocolate hour and continued on with a cocktail or two of my own creation during happy hour, but it was all worth it when I got my dinner from Eva’s delivered straight to me and my sunset view of Melbourne.
Pullman Melbourne on Swanston is more than just a place to stay, it’s an experience that enhances the essence of Melbourne‘s charm and sophistication. Here you can explore all Melbourne has to offer, whilst feeling the true meaning behind ‘a home away from home.’ If you’re staying for a longer period of time, the best addition you can choose is the Elevate Lounge Club and really take advantage of the what level 15 has to offer!
