En la práctica
Materiales significativos
Our sanctuary embraces meaningful materials by reusing heritage-listed elements from Goods Shed No. 5 (circa 1941) to promote circularity and preserve local history. We carefully restored the existing concrete structure and repurposed over 2,000 items, including 1,944 bluestone pavers forming a heritage footpath, 2 kilometres of timber purlins, steel trusses, and window frames.
La buena energía es energía limpia
We use advanced energy-saving strategies to optimise efficiency while treading lightly on the natural world. With mercury-free LED lighting systems, smart controls, superior insulation, water-cooled air-conditioning systems, advanced heat recovery methods, and a unique façade that maximises natural daylight—we’re always nurturing the delicate balance between modern innovation and nature’s wisdom.
Gestión y administración del agua
Situated along a beloved river in a drought-prone city, we always prioritise water stewardship at our urban sanctuary. We implement conservation methods such as sophisticated water reuse systems, smart irrigation technology, and water filtration taps in every room to ensure mindful management of this precious resource.
Disfrute sin remordimientos
At 1 Hotel Melbourne, every bite is seasoned by nature, capturing the essence of every passing season. Our menus invite your taste buds to stroll through nature, both honouring and spotlighting the planet’s bounty. Whether you’re raising your spirits with a cocktail or awakening your senses with a seasonal dish, make room for nature’s creativity and full-sensory inspiration.
Momentos de atención
From recycled paper hangers and soft sustainable linens to monthly dark sky celebrations and sustainable suppers, mindful moments await you at every turn in this urban sanctuary. Each of these thoughtful touches aims to inspire mindfulness and well-being while uplifting and celebrating the vibrant, natural world surrounding the city.
La naturaleza como arte
Our interiors come alive with the graceful play of light reflecting off the Yarra River, streaming through our expansive glass walls. The hotel’s lush atmosphere is nurtured by over 2,000 live plants, creating a sanctuary that rejuvenates the senses. The extensive use of natural timber forms a soothing and harmonious palette while captivating artworks inspire moments of organic expression.
