Official Description (provided by the hotel)

Celebrated as one of the world’s hottest and best new hotels by both Conde Nast Traveler and Wallpaper* magazines, InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto is a fascinating example of the city’s fusion of old and new. InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto represents the resurrection of one of the city’s last remaining examples of 19th Century Victorian Gothic architecture into a timeless and inspiring luxury hotel. Its city centre location on Collins Street is at the heart of the laneways, attractions and experiences that give Melbourne its international appeal. Behind the Gothic façade is a sleek yet intimate hotel that is home to two very different bars – the Bluestone Wine Lounge and the Market Lane Bar – and a variety of dining establishments, including Alluvial Restaurant and Guy Grossi’s exciting new venture, Merchant. InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto has also teamed up with Shannon Bennett, providing valet parking for his new Vue de monde restaurant on the 55th floor of the adjacent Rialto building. InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto’s warmth and exceptional service belies its size, with more than 250 guest rooms across two soaring wings, including a stunning collection of suites as well as the exclusive Club InterContinental lounge and facilities for premium guests. The hotel’s rooftop is also a destination itself, home to the kitchen’s own market garden and beehives, the Scandinavian-inspired swimming pool and the glass-encased fitness centre overlooking the Melbourne cityscape. Also available is the luxurious candle-lit East Day Spa offering east-meets-west treatments and therapies. Before guests arrive, they can take advantage of the concierges’ passion and Insider knowledge of the city. Chief Concierge, James Ridenour and his team are the key to authentic experiences of the real Melbourne and everything the city has to offer. ... more

“Amazing historical hotel”

Reviewed yesterday NEW via mobile

We stayed here 14 nights while my husband worked. The property is beautiful and has great service. The location is awesome! It's an easy walk to the casinos, great shopping with both high end stores and outlets, the train station is a block away, a blow dry bar, drug store, and convince store are directly across the street and dozens...

“Very nice place to stay”

Reviewed 2 days ago NEW

Every aspect of our stay was a pleasure. From the moment we walked into the hotel we were made feel welcome. The staff could not be more helpful. The room (club room) was very clean, spacious and comfortable. The hotel has been constructed using part of a preserved historical building which contributes to the charm of the hotel.

This hotel is very welcoming. The moment we walked through the entrance door, it felt like quiet, peaceful and the heater is a nice touch, instant relieve from the freezing outdoor.

Really enjoyed my stay at the InterContinental. Love the feel for the place on the inside, rooms were pretty good and loved the bars and cocktails. A little pricey but overall it was worth it. Good location in the heart of Melbourne, would recommend it for those who want a night out in Melbourne!

I stayed at this hotel before this business trip, and decided to stay here again. It's still one of the best hotels I had for a business trip in Melbourne CBD. The roof top swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna and gym were nice, and good to be active on a business trip. All staff were very professional and friendly. The breakfast... More
