"The neo-gothic half of Intercontinental’s Melbourne address dates back to the gold-rush days of the 1890s. The series of apartments, offices and wool and wheat storage may have been forgotten by the 1960s but, after careful restoration of the original building and construction of a second structure to mirror it, a hotel moved in during the 1980s and InterContinental took ownership in 2008. Today this 253-room hotel is a sound choice for working travellers, with a business centre, 13 meeting rooms, four eating and drinking outposts, 24-hour room service, a rooftop pool and gym, plus a day spa. The rooms are simple, with subdued furnishings, plush linens and cream marble counters in the bathrooms."
