Indigo Melbourne on Flinders, this boutique lifestyle hotel is a creative addition to Melbourne’s iconic Flinders Lane, which spans the city, housing both renowned restaurants on the eastern end and preserving seafaring and gold mining heritage on the western end. The hotel’s surroundings epitomise a laneway culture filled with street art, hidden cafes, bars, boutiques, and galleries. The property boasts 216 redesigned guest rooms inspired by the colourful legends of the Flinders Lane neighbourhood, notably the influential fashion photographer Helmut Newton. His work serves as a central theme in the hotel’s design, blending fashion, art, and runway elements. The hotel features a dramatic lobby-gallery space, commissioned artworks by local artists in guest rooms, a fitness centre with sustainable, body-weight-powered equipment. Additionally, the hotel offers an exciting dining experience with the Spanish bar and restaurant BESO, led by Chef Ana Cortes Garcia, offering contemporary twists on traditional Spanish tapas and an extensive selection of Victorian and Spanish wines, overseen by Guy Holder, a prominent figure in the local hospitality industry.
