This latest Hyatt Hotel addition to Melbourne comprises 240-hotel suites and serviced apartments over 12-levels, a ballroom and four basement levels of carparking. The development includes 50 residential apartments and extensions to the adjacent Peter MacCallum Cancer Institute.

   Located on the City Square site, the hotel comprises 251 guest rooms and 34 penthouse apartments. The hotel is constructed above, and is supported by, the structure of a two-basement carpark which extends over the entire site and ownership of which remains with the City of Melbourne.

   Consistently voted Australia’s finest hotel, the Grand Hyatt includes 580 rooms, convention and function centre, retail mall and international food court.

   The thirty four level building includes five basements of carparking (570 cars). Loadbearing wall construction in the residential tower is transferred to widely spaced columns through the podium and carparking levels. Total built area is in excess of 85,000 square metres.

   Crown Promenade Hotel is a 26-level, four star development, featuring 465 contemporary guest rooms, restaurants, bars, leisure centre and a purposebuilt conference centre. All typical floors are generally of one-way slab and shallow band beam construction, all conventionally reinforced. A four day floor cycle was achieved on the project. 

There is a single basement level for carparking, constructed below the water table, in Coode Island Silts. The site retention system, using a combination of sheet piling and precast piles, was fully documented in-house, by Bonacci Group.
