The ground floor of Pullman Melbourne On The Park is set for a complete transformation.

The 419-room hotel’s ground floor interior spaces, including the reception, arrival area, bar and restaurant, will be completely transformed under the direction of the team at RotheLowman.

Large open plan spaces and semi-private dining room areas will be incorporated into the new restaurant concept, all designed around creating an interactive environment, featuring a large pizza oven, raw bar section for fresh seafood and cured items, a churned ice-creamery and dessert bar.

The new-look bar will feature a large double-sided fireplace near the entrance to welcome hotel guests and external patrons alike, acting as a conduit, linking to the restaurant, lobby and hotel.

Inspired by the hotel’s leafy outlook over Fitzroy Gardens, the colours and textures will be reflected in treatments throughout the new ground floor design, with lush patterns set against a backdrop of chevron timber wall panelling.

The project is scheduled for completion in July 2017.

Pullman Melbourne on the Park is located at 192 Wellington Parade, Melbourne Vic.
