About the hotel

Stay in heritage luxury at this five-star Melbourne icon, located inside the Rialto precinct where the 1890s neo-Gothic façade, glass-topped atrium and ornate windows will transport you to the refined elegance of yesteryear. InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto is a masterclass in heritage distinction and five-star sophistication; from the bluestone laneways beneath your feet to the soaring glass atrium above, this historic landmark blends the city’s gold rush grandeur with the refined comforts of modern-day indulgence.

Beyond the lobby, the best of Melbourne awaits. Perfectly positioned on prestigious Collins Street, the hotel places you at the heart of the city’s most stylish thoroughfare. Hop aboard the City Circle tram and pass landmarks like Parliament House and Federation Square, or wander down to graffiti-covered Hosier Lane for a hit of street art and expertly brewed coffee.

When it’s time to unwind, make your way to Bluestone Lounge Bar for a signature cocktail beneath the soaring atrium. Dine in style at Alluvial, where European-inspired dishes are served in elegant surrounds, or pull up a chair at Ronnie’s for rustic Italian fare and a curated wine list. For an elevated stay, upgrade to enjoy access to the Club InterContinental Lounge, where daily refreshments, evening drinks and canapes with skyline views await.

Wellness is taken seriously here, with a tranquil escape waiting at Botanica Wellness Spa. Soothe tired muscles in the rooftop jacuzzi or sauna, swim a few laps in the enclosed pool, or simply retreat to your luxuriously appointed room.

Highlights

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.
