Cocktails at Strato Melbourne featuring spectacular views of the City was a highlight (recommend the Beeswax Negroni), as was dinner at Oak Lounge Bar sampling the delicious and new more elevated menu (kudos to exceptional Simon behind the bar).

Oak Lounge Bar is perfect for evening drinks and light meals. Some of dishes that excited included must-order Prawn and Crab Spiced Remoulade on Brioche (2), refreshing Smoked Salmon Ceviche, perfectly cooked Striploin (Porterhouse) 250g, and moorish Spice Dusted Fries.

Oakwood Premier Melbourne is a standout 5 star hotel that also features serviced apartments, and is in a convenient location on the edge of the city and close to popular South Melbourne Market and Yarra River precincts (eg Southbank and DFO). Convenient parking across the road was a bonus.

My twin room was also state-of-the-art and fully equipped for my every need. It was next level in terms of comfort and convenience (including great entertainment, furniture, work desk, and kitchen and laundry amenities), all with a touch of class.

We also enjoyed a hearty breakfast buffet at in-house breakfast restaurant, Fifth. Order yourself an omelette cooked by the chef, or load up on favorites from the various stations such as sausages, tomatoes, various breads, baked beans, scrambled eggs, and the like. Or grab yoghurt and fruit salad.
