About this stay

The Lyall provides a serene and sophisticated retreat in the upscale South Yarra suburb, recently refreshed to enhance its elegance. Guests will find generous, residential-style rooms, with options for Parisian balconies that invite the outside in, or views over a tranquil Japanese maple garden. Mornings begin with breakfast served on the leafy patio, a delightful spot that transitions into a bistro offering a seasonal menu and drinks throughout the day. This hotel is designed for those seeking an exclusive address, combining the quiet charm of a residential area with convenient access to Melbourne's vibrant city life and key attractions.

Our take

The Lyall is a quiet, upscale retreat in South Yarra rather than a big-city tower. Rooms are generous and residential in style, with Parisian balconies or views over a Japanese maple garden, and breakfast is served on a leafy patio. A bistro and a spa and wellness centre round out the stay, and the city centre is easy to reach. A 9.6 score from 177 reviews is exceptional, and I would book it for a calm Melbourne stay.

  • ✓Explore the South Yarra neighbourhood on foot, it has excellent boutiques and cafes.
  • ✓Take advantage of the spa and wellness facilities for a relaxing afternoon.
  • ✓Use the tram or train for quick and easy access to Melbourne's city centre and attractions.
