1 Hotels

Situated on the final piece of Melbourne&rsquo;s original waterfront, Riverlee&rsquo;s Seafarers forms Australia&rsquo;s first 1 Hotel and Melbourne&rsquo;s first international hotel-branded residences.

With the support of 1 Hotel staff, amenities and services, downsizing residents have countless options to make the most of the empty nest, upgrade and live a self-indulgent, eco-luxury life.

Recently moving from their family home of 10 years into their new three-bedroom apartment, these Seafarers residents have given us an insight into a day in their life.

<h2>Morning</h2>

At 8am, the couple awaken to the serene views of the sun glistening atop the Yarra River through their uniquely faceted windows designed by <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/fender-katsalidis-architects">Fender Katsalidis</a>.

&ldquo;From the comfort of your spacious bedroom, you [can] watch as the city comes to life, appreciating the beautiful landscape upon your doorstep&rdquo;, Riverlee write.

For those who have an appreciation for good coffee, the 1 Hotel room service means residents can kick-start the day by ordering breakfast and a freshly brewed delivered to their door.

At 9am, following a relaxing breakfast in bed, these Seafarers residents head to the spa-inspired 1 Hotel gym to experience a morning yoga session with fellow residents.

After a guided practice, feel free to head to the sauna for a brief detox before showering and heading out for the day.

<h2>Midday</h2>

After enjoying a long stroll through the streets of Melbourne&rsquo;s CBD, re-discovering the art precincts and beloved National Gallery of Victoria, our residents head back to Seafarers and indulge in a 12.30pm lunch at the on-site 1 Hotel restaurant.

At 2pm, following an early afternoon swim at the indoor pool, a luxury facial treatment at the spa is on the cards.

Relaxed, they are now ready for a visit from their children and grandchildren for dinner.

To make things easy, housekeeping staff have delivered fresh flowers, as the concierge team ensures a re-stocked pantry with all the grandkids&rsquo; favourite goodies.

At 5pm, our residents greet their family and their new puppy, meeting them outside the 1 Hotel crane bar for a pre-dinner drink, while the grandkids play with their puppy at Seafarers Rest and enjoy the river views.

Following drinks, the puppy is cared for by 1 Hotel staff while the family heads inside for dinner.

<h2>Evening</h2>

For dinner, you can reserve one of Seafarer&rsquo;s resident-only private dining rooms available on level 17 overlooking the Yarra with space for both the kids to run around and adults to relax, with staff on-hand to assist in cooking and cleaning up.

After a delicious family dinner, the family adjourn to the adjacent resident-only library lounge where they enjoy each other&rsquo;s company.

With Melbourne constantly abuzz, a journey out to the residents-only terrace with a drink in hand will not go amiss.

At 9.30pm, following an evening of entertaining, our residents walk their children and grandchildren to the porte coch&egrave;re where the valet brings around their car.

Before heading back to their apartment, professionally cleaned by 1 Hotels staff during dinner, our residents stop by the riverfront hotel bar for a nightcap.
