Fodor's "Set in the heart of St. Kilda's café, bar, and club precinct, Tolarno Hotel was once owned by artists who ran a gallery out of the space, and it still has an idiosyncratic artistic bent." Full review
Lonely Planet "Tolarno was once the site of Georges Mora’s seminal gallery, Tolarno. The fine-dining restaurant downstairs now bears the name of his artist wife Mirka, as well as her original paintings." Full review

Don't book a room at the front of the hotel if you're a light sleeper.

Jetsetter "Downtown beauty behind a 19th-century Victorian Gothic façade in modern Melbourne." Full review
Lonely Planet "Oozing sophistication, nonchalantly conveying an easy, old-world allure and bewitching those susceptible to a serenade, Rialto Hotel is the place to be pampered." Full review
Fodor's "Tucked away behind one of Melbourne's most iconic gothic facades, The Rialto is a five-star luxury hotel designed by William Pitt, the architect behind many Melbourne landmarks." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler82.0
"Today, although the five-story Rialto is dwarfed by its skyscraper neighbors, it exudes charm on the outside and class within." Full review
Time Out "Proving that grand is what 5-star hotels are all about, this property has been redefining what the ‘traditional’ hotel experience should be." Full review
