This winter, voco Melbourne Central invites guests to embrace the joy of solo staycations with the launch of two thoughtfully curated experiences: Reset NOMO and Escape NOMO, as part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ broader NOMO (Night on My Own) campaign.
Launching this June, the packages champion purposeful solo travel, encouraging rest, exploration, and reconnection throughout Melbourne’s cooler months. Reimagining the NOMO concept through its own lens, voco Melbourne Central offers unique perks tailored to two distinct guest mindsets: those seeking wellness and reflection, and those craving culture and city escape.
Located on Lonsdale Street in the heart of the CBD, voco Melbourne Central combines modern comfort with effortless city access. With stylish rooms, sweeping skyline views, a rooftop plunge pool, and signature dining at Blacksmith Bar & Grill, the hotel offers the perfect base for solo travellers looking to relax, explore, or indulge.
Reset NOMO is designed for those wanting to relax and rejuvenate. In partnership with the newly rebranded Spa Bar Melbourne, the package includes a luxurious two-hour spa experience which features a massage and facial treatment.
Escape NOMO, is ideal for guests looking to reconnect and be inspired on their own. voco’s Escape NOMO Concierge will connect with guests ahead of their stay to curate a
personalised shortlist of experiences, including live shows, exhibitions and immersive activities chosen from Melbourne’s dynamic and ever-changing arts and entertainment calendar.
Beyond these bespoke experiences, each package includes:
- Overnight stay in a Standard King Room or King Bed Premium with Bathtub
(packages starting from AUD 504, subject to room type, availability, and seasonality)
- A complimentary bottle of Dal Zotto Pucino Prosecco NV on arrival
- Breakfast in bed for one
- Late checkout until 4 pm (subject to availability)
Each NOMO guest also receives a self-care kit featuring a Victoria’s Secret Australia fragrance mist, hydrating face mask, reflection journal, curated Spotify playlist, and lifestyle magazines for relaxed in-room reading.
“Time alone has never been more essential,” said Celeste Clarke, General Manager of voco Melbourne Central. “In today’s always-on world, solo travel is becoming less of a luxury and more of a lifeline, whether it’s busy parents craving a rare moment to themselves, first-time solo travellers dipping their toes in, or professionals feeling the weight of burnout.
“NOMO is our way of offering people the chance to slow down, indulge, and reconnect, not just with the city, but with themselves. It’s me-time, reimagined with a voco twist.”
Bookings for Reset NOMO and Escape NOMO are available from 10 June to 31 August 2025, with stays valid through to 31 December 2025, and stays can be booked via http://vocohotels.com/melbourne
