Accor Vacation Club Unveils $5.1M Refurbishment of The Sebel Melbourne Flinders Lane

8 December 2025

Melbourne, Australia, 8 December 2025: The Sebel Melbourne Flinders Lane is proud to announce the completion of a $5.1 million refurbishment, designed to reinforce the property’s reputation as one of Melbourne’s leading boutique hotels.

The Sebel Melbourne Flinders Lane has long been regarded as a standout choice for sophisticated accommodation in Melbourne, and this major upgrade ensures the property continues to deliver an exceptional experience for members and guests.

The refurbishment – with a theme of “contemporary urban chic” – sees all 60 of the hotel’s suites updated with a lighter colour palette of beige and tan in living areas and dynamic charcoal and grey in the bathrooms. Each suite was refreshed with new furniture, soft furnishings, lighting and décor, while bathroom fittings and fixtures were replaced. The result is a collection of chic, modern suites designed to meet the expectations of Accor Vacation Club members and guests seeking stylish inner-city accommodation.

Public areas have also been revitalised to reflect the fresh design direction with new carpet, artworks and paintwork in corridors, and a complete reconfiguration of the reception to create an inviting check-in area and a relaxing lounge for guests to enjoy, complete with electric fireplace.

Craig Wood, CEO of Accor Vacation Club, said, “We continually upgrade and refresh our properties as part of our commitment to providing exceptional experiences for our more than 30,000 members. The Sebel Melbourne Flinders Lane has always been a much-loved property, and with this multimillion-dollar refurbishment, we’re confident it will remain a standout choice for members who want to be based in the very heart of Melbourne.”

The Sebel Melbourne Flinders Lane is one of the most sought-after properties in the portfolio of Accor Vacation Club, one of the region’s leading vacation ownership clubs, which includes 24 resorts across Australia, New Zealand and Indonesia.

In line with its sustainability standards, the hotel donated its high-quality pre-loved furniture to local charities, ensuring valuable resources were reused within the community, rather than going to landfill.

Accor Vacation Club is operated by Travel + Leisure Co., a leading leisure travel company, providing more than six million holidays to travellers around the world every year.
