"Sofitel Melbourne begins where most hotels end: Level 36. Even the lowest rooms look out across the skyline, while Bay View suites catch the light from Port Phillip to the distant suburbs after dark. Inside, timber shutters frame the view, gold mirrored walls rise through the heart of the building, and pastel macarons wait on arrival. There’s polish, of course, but also a kind of quiet theatre. By day or night, the city moves beneath you, and you’ve got the best seat in the house." - Tablet Hotels
