The Lyall - Profile

PROFILE OF THE LYALL HOTEL

The Lyall - Melbourne's newest hotel is redefining standards set at the luxury end by combining all the latest facilities and related services of a 5 star city hotel with the lifestyle benefits and personalized attention of an exclusive resort.

Calm and convenient best describe the upscale address of The Lyall which is elegantly poised in a residential, tree-lined street just steps from fashionable Toorak Road and Chapel Street. Guests can experience the best of South Yarra armed with "insider information" and shopping incentives provided by the owners of the hotel.

"We wanted to create a tranquil island in the midst of a busy city", said Peter Thomas, owner of the Lyall Hotel. "We want our guest's personal experiences enhanced in every way by providing world-class luxury facilities combined with refined service that is tailor-made to the individual guests' needs".

The Lyall suite accommodation is all of deluxe standard made up of one and two bedroom configurations. There are open plan studio suites, super deluxe "rooftop" suites with fabulous views and specialty suites. Beautifully textured finishes and opulent fabrics capture a mood that is contemporary oriental.

All suites enjoy the added luxury of opening windows for fresh air and a furnished balcony. Most notable is the Lyall Hotel's unique attention to the smaller details including mist-free mirrors, bathroom under-floor heating, king size beds and a mini-bar with a difference. Having your own kitchen facilities, in most suites, enables you to keep to their own "regime", should you so desire.

A most unique feature of the Lyall Hotel is its series of "mini art galleries" on each floor where guests can lounge in front of the fire and evaluate the original art.

Bistro Lyall offers light dining all day long inside or al fresco. Bistro Lyall is the place to have coffee or cocktail, breakfast and beyond with a contemporary menu designed by international chef, Martin Webb of Conran fame including a selection from Melbourne's famous Browns Bakery.

The Lyall Spa is located within the hotel and is a full day spa facility where therapists will focus on each guests' individual requirements to enhance relaxation, relieve stress, relax and pamper. The Lyall Gymnasium (open only to guests 24 hours) features "Life Fitness" equipment with TVs for individual entertainment.

The Lyall Club conference facility resembles a large homely study and provides full conferencing equipment in a quiet and ambient environment while the library next to reception is an intimate place to meet or enjoy a cocktail by the fire.

As they say…."When in Rome do as the Romans do….." The Lyall Hotel which opened in February 2002 offers guests this opportunity to experience Melbourne's finest lifestyle first-hand.
