Pan Pacific now flying the flag at Melbourne's South Wharf

Melbourne welcomes new five-star accommodation offering from one of the world’s leading hotel groups.

Melbourne has been named most liveable city in the world for a record-breaking seven years running. Although Melburnians would tell you this is hardly surprising when you take into account an unparalleled food culture, with its myriad of intimate bars tucked down laneways, not to mention a jammed packed, year-round calendar featuring leading international music performers, sensational theatre productions and world-class sporting events. And, now located on the banks of the beautiful Yarra River, you’ll find the city’s newest first-class accommodation offering – the Pan Pacific Melbourne.

In a city famous for its food scene, Pan Pacific Melbourne is located in a premium position in the heart of Melbourne’s bustling South Wharf precinct, with numerous award-winning restaurants and retail offerings right on the doorstep. It’s also close to all the action, with the City Centre, Flinders Street Station, Crown Casino, Etihad Stadium and popular tourist attractions, all within comfortable walking distance.

Making time to explore the luxurious surrounds of the Pan Pacific Melbourne itself is also well worth the effort. The hotel offers the perfect tranquil haven from the hustle and bustle of Australia’s second largest, and most cosmopolitan city. Almost 400 guest rooms feature spacious, sophisticated, stylish interiors and all the premium amenities that are synonymous with the Pan Pacific experience, framed by spectacular views of the CBD, Port Philip Bay and the Yarra River.

Luxurious rooms boast superior king-sized beds and a choice of pillows from an impressive pillow menu, guaranteed to deliver the perfect night’s sleep. A recent upgrade of amenities has also provided Pan Pacific Melbourne’s guests with the latest technology in every room including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth connectivity, and two USB charging ports.

Guests after a truly exclusive experience underpinned by Pan Pacific’s signature understated and conscientious service, should look no further than the hotel’s Pacific Club. Occupying over 366m2 of space on the property’s fourth floor, The Pacific Club features panoramic city views from an expansive lounge area and outdoor terrace, along with a comprehensive suite of facilities.

With direct access to the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, Pan Pacific Melbourne is also the city’s premier venue for MICE travel, catering for everything from intimate gathering to grand galas to major conferences, with state-of-the-art facilities spanning 400 m2 of flexible meeting and events space, supported by two premium dining outlets and a 24-hour fitness centre appealing to anyone contemplating business or leisure travel in Victoria’s capital.

Having opened in July 2017 the South Wharf hotel marks a welcome return to the East Coast for Pan Pacific Hotels and Resorts, and is its second Australian property, alongside the Pan Pacific Perth, which opened in 2011, adding to the groups existing properties including PARKROYAL Melbourne Airport, Sydney’s PARKROYAL Parramatta and PARKROYAL Darling Harbour.

The launch of Pan Pacific Melbourne caps off a busy few months for the UOL Group, with the Pan Pacific Beijing opening earlier this month and the Pan Pacific Yangon scheduled to launch later this year.
