Available every day except Tuesday, the Grand Day Out Package has been thoughtfully revamped to offer greater flexibility and choice. Guests can now select their preferred seating time and choose between dining at the Atrium or the Bistro at the Grand Hotel, each presenting its own distinct menu and dining style. Previously exclusive to the Atrium, this enhanced package now also includes the Bistro, a charming restaurant located within the hotel. With its warm ambiance, elegant interiors, and inviting atmosphere, the Bistro provides a relaxed yet refined dining experience designed to leave guests feeling comfortable, satisfied, and well cared for.
The experience begins with a scenic and leisurely cruise across Port Phillip Bay, departing from Docklands aboard a modern fast ferry. Sit back and enjoy the journey as you arrive in the picturesque seaside town of Portarlington, known for its coastal charm and relaxed pace. Standing proudly on the main street since 1888, the historic Portarlington Grand Hotel has recently undergone a stunning renovation that beautifully blends its rich heritage with contemporary luxury. This seamless fusion of old and new creates the perfect setting to enjoy a memorable day out, combining waterfront travel, history, fine dining, and timeless coastal elegance.
