Melbourne, Australia – August 2026: Hilton Melbourne Little Queen Street is inviting travellers to experience Melbourne’s arts season in style with the launch of its new Art of Elegance package, created in celebration of NGV’s Melbourne Winter Masterpieces®: CARTIER exhibition.
Designed as a refined city escape, the curated experience includes overnight accommodation in a luxurious room, breakfast for two at Hilton Melbourne Little Queen Street’s in-house restaurant Luci and two tickets to NGV’s Melbourne Winter Masterpieces®: CARTIER exhibition. Guests are welcomed into the experience on arrival, with the hotel lobby featuring a sparkling crystal installation designed to echo the elegance and artistry of the exhibition.

As the official tourism partner of NGV, Hilton Melbourne Little Queen Street partnership with the gallery further cements the hotel as a gateway to Melbourne’s world-class cultural offering. General Manager Jeremy Healy shares,
“Melbourne is at its most captivating during the colder months, and NGV’s Melbourne Winter Masterpieces®: CARTIER exhibition gives travellers another compelling reason to plan a cultural escape. Art of Elegance brings together the shared values of Hilton, NGV and Cartier – from exceptional design and craftsmanship to creating memorable experiences. We wanted to create a stay that feels refined and deeply connected to the city’s creative energy.”
