About the hotel

The ultra-luxurious finds an unlikely home at The Interlude, where jaw-dropping art, reverential experiences and gastronomic delights throw the needle forward for the standard of Melbourne’s heritage-rich stays. An intimate collection of just 19 suites operating less than 10kms from the CBD, the property features a hatted restaurant focused on the region’s finest decadence, led by the former Head Chef of Cumulus Inc. You’ll also find what is perhaps the city’s most unique wine bar – a detail-oriented venue with over 500 varieties treasured within converted bluestone cells, one of which was Ned Kelly’s own. Below floor level lives a spectacular candle-lit pool available for private therapeutic bathing, elevated wellness experiences and poolside drinks. For almost 200 years, this was a place people dreamed of escaping. Now, it’s a place you’ll never want to leave.

A decade-long labour of love, this visionary transformation of a corner of the former Pentridge Prison is adaptive reuse at its absolute finest. Long gone are the harsh and cold interiors – the original walls now encapsulate a vibrant space characterised by artisan touches, fearless design and bespoke offerings. From the complimentary turndown wine and truffle service to the treatment of the smiling hosts, once you step through the doors of The Interlude, you’ll wish your sentence was longer.
