Welcome to Lumen Yarra

Melbourne elegance, framed by river and skyline.

Lumen Yarra brings quiet sophistication to Southbank. Dark oak, local stone, tactile wool and brushed bronze create a warm urban retreat just steps from the city’s cultural heart.

Begin with breakfast beside the Yarra, wander galleries and laneways, restore in the wellness rooms, then return for modern Australian dining or a composed evening in our adults-only lounge.
