Reminiscent of an art deco ocean liner from the golden age of luxury travel, the Westin is easily one of the city's grandest and greatest hotels. The high-ceilinged lobby, with a sweeping central staircase, features stellar examples of photography by artists such as Bill Henson (from his famous Paris Opera Project series).Some standard rooms feature Country Road furniture and plush king-size beds, but they face inwards, so try and nab one of the suites on the corner of Swanston and Collins Sts - the views of the art deco Manchester Unity Building are striking, and you can even revel in the cityscape from your bathtub should the mood take you. If you nab a room facing Flinders Lane, you'll be treated to a small balcony where you can stand (yes stand, we did say it was small) and watch life go by down below. All this, plus a fabulous two-lane indoor lap pool - what more could you want?

With the Athenauem across the street and the Regent next door, world-class theatre is but a few steps away, literally.
The City Square area at the front of the hotel benefits from the lobby's wireless hotspot status - expect to see nearby RMIT students using their laptops on sunny days.
