The InterContinental Melbourne celebrates the return of the Spring Racing Carnival with a showstopping floral display by Melbourne’s leading florist, Victoria Whitelaw. Featuring a colorful and vibrant floral extravaganza housed within a beautifully hand-painted fibre glass horse, the stunning arrangement is on display for all to enjoy in the foyer of the InterContinental Melbourne this week.
Tim Smith, InterContinental’s General Manager, says, “This year we wanted to mark the return of the Spring Racing Carnival with something truly special for our hotel guests and all Melbournians to enjoy. We’re giving men a complimentary race day buttonhole, and we’re also encouraging everyone to have a pre-race photo with the beautiful floral horse display before heading trackside.
The Intercontinental is housed in a much-loved CBD landmark in a blue-ribbon address on prestigious Collins Street. The 253-room 5-star hotel is quintessentially Melbourne, from its charming heritage façade to the timeless elegance of its tastefully understated interiors. A stunning blend of contemporary and traditional design, each of its well-appointed rooms and suites is the very epitome of luxury.
Location is also key when heading to the races, and the InterContinental is ideally located within walking distance to Southern Cross Station, with trains travelling directly to and from Flemington Racecourse, each Carnival Race Day. Or for those preferring door to door service, it’s only a short taxi ride to directly to the track, or let the hotel concierge organise your own chauffeured transport.
With King Classic Rooms starting from just $351 per night, don’t miss out. Book now and turn a great day of racing into a truly memorable one.
