Hotel Chadstone Melbourne

The rooftop bar at Hotel Chadstone Melbourne offers unbroken views from the Dandenong Ranges to the city skyline. Altus serves classic cocktails and a wine list built around Australian producers, with a menu that combines oysters, artisan cheeses and charcuterie boards alongside more filling mains.

The hotel’s bar and dining spaces balance high design with a relaxed tone that fits the Melbourne pace. We like the soft lighting and pastel palette, which carry through into the public areas. There’s quiet attention to detail here, from stemware to table settings.

Set just steps from the luxury retail complex, it’s a polished spot for a martini or late brunch away from the crowds.
