Celebrate Summer in Style: Le Méridien Melbourne’s Au Soleil Awaits

 Situated in the heart of the city at 20 Bourke St, Le Méridien Melbourne offers an exceptional gateway to Melbourne’s vibrant art, history, and culture.

This 5-star hotel boasts 235 elegantly designed guest rooms and suites inspired by mid-century aesthetics, alongside a ground-floor café and bar, a stylish restaurant, and a stunning rooftop pool deck with sweeping views of Bourke St, Parliament House, and Fitzroy Gardens.

 Renowned for its engaging art and culinary experiences, Le Méridien Melbourne serves as a hub for creatively inclined travelers.

 This summer, Le Méridien Melbourne invites you to immerse yourself in the season’s splendor with its signature Au Soleil by Le Méridien program. Blending sun-drenched relaxation with European sophistication, it’s the ultimate destination for golden hour glamour and unforgettable celebrations in Melbourne.

At the heart of Au Soleil by Le Méridien is Le Splash, the hotel’s dazzling rooftop pool. With shimmering azure waters reflecting the city skyline, it exudes the charm of the Côte d’Azur. Now open to the public on select days, Le Splash offers everyone the chance to soak up Melbourne’s sunshine while savoring cocktails.

Luxurious sun loungers, poolside games like backgammon, and curated experiences provide the perfect setting to embrace the leisurely spirit of summer. Le Splash’s menu captures the essence of the season with its exclusive Limoncello Drop, a refreshing cocktail featuring limoncello, vodka, fresh lemon, mint, and a sugar rim—delivering a vibrant taste of the Mediterranean.

Guests can also indulge in Le Méridien’s iconic Le Scoop Gelato and the signature Whispering Angel Rosé Sorbet, served in a custom-designed glass cone paired with a stemless glass of Whispering Angel Rosé, ideal for golden hour.

 As the sun sets, Le Splash transforms into Melbourne’s most glamorous New Year’s Eve destination. With panoramic views, live DJs, and a premium food and beverage package, it offers an unparalleled setting to welcome the new year in style.

 The culinary journey continues at Dolly, the hotel’s celebrated subterranean restaurant, where French-born Chef Hervé Borghini presents a Mediterranean-inspired summer menu.

Signature dishes include scallops with cauliflower and salmon caviar, duck terrine with prunes, and peachy burrata. Main courses such as chicken breast with corn velouté and chorizo risotto with mascarpone highlight the season’s finest flavors, evoking the relaxed elegance of waterfront dining.

 Make Le Méridien Melbourne your ultimate summer destination, where the spirit of Au Soleil shines brightly.
