Step Inside The Palace - Le Méridien Melbourne's Presidential Suite Redefines Inner-City Luxury

Tags: , ,


Marriott International | Australia

Set high on Level 12, the top floor of Le Méridien Melbourne, the Palace Suite quietly commands one of the most enviable vantage points in the CBD. Framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that run the full width of the suite, the outlook stretches from the historic rooftops of Parliament House to the hotel's show-stopping pool deck and the high-rises that define Melbourne's cityscape. But it's what's inside that truly sets this suite apart.

At 91 square metres (979 sqft), the two-bedroom Palace Suite offers the space and sensibility of a private apartment, wrapped in warm, residential interiors that blend European chic with modern ease. Soft textures, ambient lighting and curated design details create an inviting atmosphere that feels more like a home than a hotel. It's a rare kind of luxury—one that doesn't shout.

While the suite is Le Méridien Melbourne's most prestigious accommodation, it's also its most discreet. Frequently booked by high-profile guests, from international celebrities to senior dignitaries, the entire 12th floor is often secured in a full buyout, offering total seclusion and security for those who need it most.

Inside, the layout is designed with both comfort and entertaining in mind. The suite features two king bedrooms, two bathrooms with walk-in showers, and luxurious Malin+Goetz amenities. A generous open-plan living area flows into a dining zone that seats eight, ideal for relaxed dinners, family gatherings, or quiet mornings with room service.

The adjacent kitchenette is well equipped for longer stays, with premium SMEG appliances, a microwave, full-sized fridge, and bar seating for casual meals or pre-dinner drinks. A vinyl record player with a curated vinyl collection and a Polaroid camera nod to the brand's mid-century modern heritage, bringing character and creativity into the space.

For those travelling with family, an interconnecting guestroom can be reserved to expand the suite into a three-bedroom residence—ideal for multi-generational holidays, children's rooms, or as a dedicated styling space for wedding parties or events.

A Suite Made for Celebrations

Couples hosting their wedding or private event at Le Méridien Melbourne can enjoy a complimentary night in the Palace Suite when booking events of 140 guests or more. Whether used as a bridal suite or a wedding night retreat, the suite offers a quiet, light-filled setting for getting ready, celebrating, or simply unwinding together. The natural light and elegant finishes also make it an ideal backdrop for pre-ceremony photography.

The Palace Suite is designed for those who appreciate privacy, detail and a sense of occasion; it invites guests to experience Melbourne from a new perspective—above it all, and right at home.
