What it is

A sumptuous retreat of full throttle luxury, with traditionally appointed rooms, a serene spa, an alfresco pool with doting attendants, and a locally beloved restaurant and bar.

What it isn't

Lazing about. The 24-hour fitness studio—complete with pilates and yoga classes as well as Life Fitness equipment—ensures you’ll stay at the top of your wellness game, even on vacay.

What we think

Proof every guest is a V.I.P. at The Langham Melbourne? Even the “starting” room, a 344 square foot Superior room, contains abundant luxuries to wow a royal…including carved wood furniture; a marble-lined bathroom; a Langham-brand bed, robes and slippers; minibar; and gratis turndown service. The One Bedroom Suite is sprawling at 796 square feet, with a fully separate living room, dressing room, spa bath, Nespresso machine, and even a butler awaiting to pamper. (Bonus: like the Club Rooms, suites have access to the 24th floor Langham Club, where guests are treated to private check-in, comped canapes, breakfast and snacks aplenty, and even afternoon tea.)

You're here because

You’re a bit of an afternoon tea junkie, and theirs is the best in town: complete with cult British tea brand JING and fanciful pastries on three tiered trays.

The Moment

The word “buffet” has never looked better than at the hotel’s Melba restaurant, where the offerings before you are exquisite and downright dizzying. Will you indulge in oysters and prawns, crispy pork belly, sashimi, or all three? Since you’re down under, you decide to take an edible walkabout and go all-in.
