This summer, Le Méridien Melbourne invites you to revel in the essence of summer as its signature Au Soleil by Le Méridien programme takes centre stage. Combining sun-soaked indulgence with European sophistication, this is Melbourne’s ultimate destination for golden hour glamour and unforgettable celebrations.
At the heart of Au Soleil by Le Méridien is Le Splash, the show-stopping rooftop pool at the 5-star luxury hotel. Here, city’s skyline reflects in shimmering azure waters, evoking the charm of the Côte d’Azur. This chic rooftop pool and bar is now open to the public on select days, offering everyone a chance to soak up Melbourne’s sunshine, cocktail in hand. Luxurious sun loungers, poolside games like backgammon, and curated experiences invite guests to embrace summer’s leisurely moments.
The menu at Le Splash celebrates the joys of summer, featuring the exclusive Limoncello Drop, a vibrant cocktail crafted with limoncello, vodka, fresh lemon, mint, and a sugar rim — the perfect blend of Mediterranean freshness. Poolside indulgence continues with Le Méridien’s world-famous Le Scoop Gelato and the brand’s signature Whispering Angel Rosé Sorbet, served in a custom-designed glass cone nestled atop a stemless wine glass of Whispering Angel Rosé, best enjoyed at golden hour.
Golden hour transitions seamlessly into Melbourne’s most glamorous New Year’s Eve celebration. With 360-degree views, live DJs, and an enviable food and beverage package, Le Splash offers the city’s best vantage point to ring in the new year in unparalleled style.
Culinary delights extend beyond the rooftop to Dolly, the hotel’s viral subterranean restaurant, where French-born Chef Hervé Borghini presents a summer menu inspired by his Mediterranean roots. Dishes like scallops with cauliflower and salmon caviar, duck terrine with prunes, and peachy burrata evoke long lunches by the waterfront. Main courses, including chicken breast with corn velouté and chorizo risotto with mascarpone, celebrate the season’s finest flavours.
This summer, Au Soleil by Le Méridien invites guests to savour life’s simple pleasures, from sunny afternoons at Le Splash to long Mediterranean-inspired meals at Dolly. Whether lounging poolside or dancing under the stars, every detail is designed to capture the magic of endless summer days and unforgettable nights.
Make Le Méridien Melbourne your go-to destination this summer, where the spirit of Au Soleil shines brightly. Because at Le Méridien, summer isn’t just a season — it’s a state of mind.
