DoubleTree by Hilton – Flinders Street is no ordinary Hilton. Yes, it has all the swanky mod cons and the serious service you’d expect of the brand, but Melbourne’s DoubleTree also has some serious cool cred. We’re not just talking about the fact that every guest gets a warm chocolate chip cookie when they check in. First...
One of Melbourne Star’s private beach boxes, sangria, 360-degree views of Melbourne. We can’t imagine a more perfect summertime activity.
