HANNAH ST Hotel showcases a new F&B playbook for business travellers heading to Melbourne

Hannah St Hotel’s partnership with The Mulberry Group brings five distinct venues under one roof, setting a strong brief for business travel that values time efficiency, comfort, and high-calibre dining.
For corporate travellers who treat gastronomy as part of the workday, this sounds like an end-to-end proposition woven directly into the hotel experience.
At street level, Hannah St Coffee will lean into Melbourne’s morning ritual with Square One brews, fresh pastries and produce-led sandwiches useful for pre-meeting takeaways or quick stand-ups before heading to the CBD or the nearby Arts Precinct. Coupette Corner Bistro & Bar will extend the utility through the day: credible breakfasts, long-lunch capability, after-work drinks and late suppers, all pitched with a European-inspired, produce-driven menu that reads well for client hosting without forcing a taxi across town.
The hotel also reimagines the lobby bar as a genuine business asset. Bar Hannah will soft-launch the day as a relaxed lounge for informal catch-ups, then pivots after hours into a plush cocktail bar with an elevated snack list and a curated wine programme. For discreet dialogue, The Carriage Lounge aims for an intimate, low-lit setting. If scale is required, the Terrace Lounge, a rooftop with Southbank views will serve as a multipurpose event space that can handle product showcases, networking evenings or leadership receptions with ease.
Designed by Flack Studio, the 188-room property sits within the Queensbridge precinct, minutes from the Melbourne Arts Precinct transformation helpful for itinerary-adjacent entertaining and culturally minded incentive programmes. Operationally, the “everything on-site” model reduces friction for travellers who want quality without the logistics.
The Mulberry Group’s hospitality pedigree (Hazel, Dessous, Lilac Wine, among others) is evident in the culinary brief. Design-led spaces with service that reads the room, and menus that privilege seasonal, Victorian-leaning produce.
