Take a sneak peek inside Melbourne's Hyatt Centric, opening 2021

It seems like all the hotel action is happening in Melbourne, with Australia's second Hyatt Centric property slated to open in 2021.

Located at the corner of Downie St and Flinders Lane, the Hyatt Centric Melbourne will be strategically close to Southern Cross Station as well as the Docklands and Southbank precincts, as well as the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Center.

These concept images indicate the Hyatt Centric Melbourne will look decidedly upscale, but do so using clean uncomplicated lines and a soft colour palette.
