Historical Accommodation

The Windsor

Built in 1883, The Windsor is a testament to Australia’s European colonisation, and stands as the last truly grand hotel in Australia. Positioned at the "Paris end" of Melbourne on Spring Street, the five star hotel’s 180 rooms and suites are designed to impress, with the Royal Suite offering 122 squares of luxury furnishings and original artwork. There’s even a pillow menu for guests to choose from to give them a sleep to remember. The prestigious hotel lies opposite Parliament House and Treasury Gardens, within walking distance to some of Melbourne’s best attractions including the Princess Theatre, the MCG sporting ground and the hustle and bustle of Chinatown.

P.S Emmylou

Spend a night drifting down Victoria’s great Murray River, on the P.S Emmylou paddlesteamer. Just three hours north of Melbourne is where you’ll begin your overnight cruise, staying in a two berth cabin featuring traditional riverboat style bunks.

A three-course dinner is served on the outer deck with sunset and the stars as your backdrop and the gentle swish of the paddlewheels as your soundtrack. The grand paddlesteamer P.S. Emmylou is a replica of the 19th century paddleboats that graced the Port of Echuca during its heyday as an inland trading port; it remains the only wood-fired paddlesteamer in the world offering regular overnight cruising. Ask the captain if you can stop to fish, swim or go bushwalking as you meander along the Murray, which flows more than 2,500 km from the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales to the Southern Ocean in South Australia.
