Internationally renowned Pan Pacific Hotels Group is about to pump new life into the heart of south east Melbourne when it opens its newest upscale hotel, PARKROYAL Monash Melbourne on 12 April 2021
PARKROYAL Monash Melbourne is based within the vibrant M-City complex in Clayton – gateway to many of Victoria’s regional attractions including the Yarra Valley, the Dandenong’s and Mornington Peninsula, and the hotel’s coveted location makes it the perfect base for leisure travellers visiting from regional Victoria, Melbourne locals looking for a stay-cation, as well as business travellers seeking 24-hour high-quality service after a busy work day.
Featuring 250 rooms and suites, along with a natural day-lit restaurant and bar showcasing the colours and textures of the Australian landscape, the generous open spaces, and secluded seating areas provide guests with an attractive social hub to meet, connect and celebrate. The hotel also serves as a showcase for renowned Gippsland-based artist Aidan Weichard, with a series of his stunning Australian landscapes and intricate studies of native flora and fauna, the inspiration for many of his works, featuring throughout.
Conveniently located within the epicentre of Melbourne’s science, education, medical and research hub, minutes from Monash University, Monash Medical Centre and Monash Children’s Hospital, the hotel combines premium accommodation with extensive meeting and event spaces, including an executive boardroom, meeting rooms and a 375sqm pillarless ballroom that will offer the ideal venue for gala dinners, conferences and weddings.
Every detail has been conceived with the local community and surrounds in mind, with rooms catering to families and friends visiting those in the nearby hospitals, out-patient and carer rooms, families attending events with students at Monash University, as well as generous executive accommodation that will support the needs of business travellers visiting the Monash Precinct.
The integration of PARKROYAL Monash Melbourne within the M-City precinct is also inspired. Developed by the Schiavello Group, the largest multi-use complex outside Melbourne’s CBD fulfils a long-awaited need in the city’s rapidly developing south east corridor for a one-stop destination where everything from health facilities and childcare through to residential towers and corporate offices are all located under one roof. With 664 apartments spread across 4 residential towers alongside a 9-level commercial tower, M-City has a whole lot to offer the local community as well as visitors to the area.
All the conveniences which the adjoining M-City has to offer are expected to further enhance the hotel’s appeal to business and leisure travellers alike, with guests enjoying access to over 60 retail, dining and wellness offerings within the precinct including a new Village Cinema complex, as well as an outdoor swimming pool surrounded by landscaped gardens, a 24-hour fitness centre and Pilates studio, nail salon, masseuse, and hairdresser.
PARKROYAL Monash Melbourne General Manager, Darryl Healey said the opening is an exciting development for the South East at a time when Melbourne is re-opening and re-invigorating itself after a tough 12 months.
“PARKROYAL Monash Melbourne will provide something exciting and different for the destination, serving up a full-service upscale hotel experience differentiated by its signature warm approachable service, combined with all the conveniences of a multi-use complex. It will become a locally loved and highly sought-after neighbourhood gem.”
