The Royce
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA
Our take
Art deco bones, a cocktail bar worth lingering in, and a postcode that puts you at Melbourne's cultural core — The Royce earns its devotees among those who find soul in restored 1920s detailing and prefer intimacy over spectacle. Aesthetes, couples, anyone who reads a hotel's history before its star rating: this is yours. But if you're arriving with expectations of rooftop infinity pools, floor-to-ceiling glass, and a tower address, redirect your search. The Royce doesn't perform modernity. It doesn't need to.
Notable Features
- Meticulously restored 1920s Art Deco architecture
- Sophisticated in-house cocktail bar
💡 Insider Tip
"Request a room overlooking the Royal Botanic Gardens — the greenery against the building's heritage facade is a rare pocket of calm you won't find advertised on the booking page."
