A heartfelt thank you to Universal Traveller for publishing my article, The Grand Hyatt Melbourne: A Place to Create Lasting Memories
The Grand Hyatt Melbourne holds a special place in my photographic journey. I first came across it years ago while doing photoshoots in the city, its striking architecture and prime location making it a natural backdrop for my work. During the pandemic, when Melbourne fell silent, the hotel stood as a symbol of resilience—one that later became woven into The Melbourne Portraits Project.
Last November, Hannah and I finally stayed there, and it felt like a full-circle moment. From the warm welcome to the breathtaking views, every detail reflected the thoughtful hospitality that makes this hotel so special. More than just a place to stay, it became a place to reflect, reconnect, and appreciate the journey.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to share this experience through Universal Traveller. If you’re ever in Melbourne and looking for a place that blends luxury with a deep connection to the city, this is it.
