Why it's worth checking out
The Langham, Melbourne sits on Southgate Avenue in Southbank, by the Yarra River just across from the CBD. One of the city's most prestigious luxury hotels, it's renowned for its elegant accommodation, acclaimed dining (including its famous afternoon tea), a beautiful spa and impeccable service — all in a prime riverside location with lovely views over the river and the city.
The appeal is that combination of genuine five-star luxury, refined dining, a renowned spa and a peerless Southbank location, close to the river, the arts precinct, the city and the dining of Southgate. For a truly special stay — a celebration, a romantic getaway or simply the best the city has to offer — its blend of elegance, service and setting makes it a standout, and its afternoon tea is a Melbourne institution.
With a 4.4 rating from more than 3,000 reviews, it's clearly delivering for its guests. Room types, rates, dining, the spa, the afternoon tea, facilities and availability vary with the season and demand, and a prestigious hotel books out around peak periods, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly well ahead — particularly if you're travelling at a busy time or planning a special occasion in Melbourne.
