Located on the corner of King Street and Flinders Lane, a short stroll from Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium and the Immigration Museum, lies the Quincy Melbourne, a colourful 241-room hotel.
Enter the lift and you’ll find the venue is cleverly themed around Melbourne’s laneway culture, with floor-to-ceiling graffiti wallpaper and modern upbeat tunes playing – this definitely isn’t your usual elevator music.
The rooms are inviting and cosy with pops of colour – think hues of jade, blue and pink. Added comforts include dreamy beds, in-house movies, dusty pink velvet chairs (located right by the window), Kevin Murphy products and panoramic views.
Complementing the pink are stylish gold trimmings throughout, as well as fixed amenities in the bathroom to cut down on waste. The mini bar is stocked up with snacks and a mix of local and international bevvies.
If you can’t go a day without a sweaty workout, there’s a gym and a semi-outdoor pool. Thirsty? On the 28th floor is the Q Rooftop, which boasts killer cocktails and moody lighting. Hungry? You can dine at Salted Egg, the in-house, Southeast Asian-inspired restaurant that's accessible via a gold-trimmed spiral staircase on the ground floor.
Time Out tip: Head to the Q Rooftop for sunset drinks – seriously, the views up here are truly 'gram-worthy. Order one of the Melbourne-themed bevs (our fave is the Picked from CERES) then sit back and relax.
