MELBOURNE – MELBOURNE MARRIOTT HOTEL

For “Big City” experiences, there's nowhere quite like Melbourne and there's no better location to make the most of it than the Melbourne Marriott Hotel.

This stylish boutique hotel is in the heart of the action on the corner of Exhibition and Lonsdale Streets - your restful little haven from which to explore everything this great city has to offer.

The large guest rooms and suites are deeply luxurious, with Marriott's unique “Revive” bedding, extra thick mattresses, cotton-rich linen and plenty of fluffy pillows. The bathrooms are equally indulgent, with spa baths, bath robes and all the amenities you'd expect from a top five star hotel.

If you treat yourself to a room on the Executive floors, you'll have access to the Executive Lounge where you can enjoy complimentary breakfast, evening drinks and canapés.

In a city of great restaurants, Essence at the Marriott is up there with the best of them and is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There's also a fully equipped gymnasium and indoor pool which you can visit at any time.

There's so much to explore in Melbourne, you'd better stay another day. The city's great department stores are close by, as are the wonderful laneways which have redefined city living in recent years. They buzz all day and late into the night, with coffee shops, ethnic restaurants, book stores and all sorts of special interest shops.

The hotel has a great package in place for Weekends for Two readers. It includes a premier room, full buffet breakfast, sparkling wine and fruit platter on arrival, valet parking, late check out and newspaper. Conditions apply.

TARIFF: from $300 couple/night to 30 Dec 2008. Booking code: WKPA
