The Ritz-Carlton being developed for Spencer St, Melbourne, will be Australia’s largest hotel at 79 storeys high.
THE Ritz-Carlton is coming to Melbourne to overshadow Australia’s existing luxury hotels.
That’s figuratively overshadow and literally overshadow.
The 79 storey Ritz-Carlton at 250 Spencer St will be the tallest hotel in Australia when it is built by Far East Consortium property developers later this year.
That’s almost 30 floors taller than the Melbourne’s current tallest hotel, Collins St’s Sofitel, almost 20 floors taller than the Gold Coast’s Hilton Surfers, and four floors taller than the World Tower skyscraper in Sydney.

Figuratively, the Ritz Carlton plans to overshadow Australia’s existing ritzy hotels with its centuries old reputation for elegance and luxury.
In fact, the hotel chain invented the word “ritzy” which the dictionary actually lists as the very definition of elegance and luxury.
“When the president of the United States travels anywhere, he stays in the Presidential Suite at the Ritz, such is the hotel’s unparalleled reputation,” Far East Consortium executive director Craig Williams says.

Melbourne Lord Mayor recently complained that hotel occupancy rates were through the roof and the city needed more rooms for hire.
The Ritz Carlton development in Melbourne should make available 250 more rooms to visitors to the city.
