The post Melbourne Cup at The Atrium Continental Sorrento appeared first on Love the Peninsula.

Brought to life by George Coppin, a theatrical impresario turned visionary entrepreneur, the hotel was Coppin’s grand gesture to transform Sorrento into a world-class destination. With its sweeping terraces, limestone facades, and proximity to the sparkling bay, the Continental (or Conti) became a beacon for Melbourne’s elite seeking respite by the sea.

Coppin’s Vision Reimagined

Coppin wasn’t just building a hotel; he was shaping a legacy. His dream of bringing European grandeur to Victoria extended beyond bricks and mortar. The Conti offered refined luxury with all the trappings of a premier seaside retreat: from orchestras and fishing expeditions to elegant dining under the stars. Coppin’s foresight cemented Sorrento as a destination of choice, and now, nearly 150 years later, his vision has been reimagined for a modern audience. The recent $120 million restoration by Woods Bagot takes Coppin’s original dream to new heights. Drawing on the theme of ‘Modern Nostalgia’, the design bridges the past and present, celebrating the building’s historic charm while delivering state-of-the-art luxury. From the intricate restoration of the Grand Ballroom to the contemporary addition of three new accommodation wings, the hotel’s design offers a seamless blend of heritage and modernity.

An Architectural Masterpiece

The beauty of the InterContinental Sorrento lies in its thoughtful architecture. The Heritage Wing, crafted from local limestone, retains its Victorian Italianate elegance, while the newly developed Main Wing and Riley Lane boast modern refinement. The pièce de résistance? The expansive concourse terrazzo pool deck awarded one of the finest in the country, where guests can bask in the sun, sip crafted cocktails, and soak in the sweeping views of the bay. This is luxury without pretence—a space designed for relaxation, reflection, and indulgence.

The hotel’s architectural flow encourages exploration. The porte cochère offers a grand entrance, while the glazed conservatory serves as the heart of the precinct, inviting guests to linger, socialise, and savour the moment. Every detail, from the carefully curated art to the modern furnishings, echoes Coppin’s ambition to create not just a hotel but an experience.

The Perfect Launchpad for Peninsula Adventures

The InterContinental Sorrento is more than just a destination; it’s the ultimate hub for exploring the Mornington Peninsula and a fantastic stepping stone to the Great Ocean Road, easily accessible by ferry. Whether you’re setting out for a day of coastal walks, winery tours, or seaside adventures, the hotel offers an ideal base. Spend your day discovering the rugged beauty of Point Nepean, sampling the region’s finest vintages, or strolling along Sorrento’s bustling Ocean Beach Road. After a day of exploration, return to your luxurious haven. Cocoon yourself in one of the beautifully appointed accommodations, suites, or even one of our Penthouses, where every amenity has been designed for comfort, tranquillity, and luxury. Or unwind by the pool, where the gentle bay breeze and soft glow of sunset provide the perfect backdrop for an evening of relaxation.

The Continental Sorrento Entertainment Precinct

Staying at the InterContinental Sorrento also grants access to the vibrant Continental Sorrento Entertainment Precinct. This buzzing hub of fine dining, casual eateries, and stylish bars brings the best of culinary and social experiences to your doorstep.

Staying here connects you to a story that began in the 19th century and continues to evolve, offering new chapters of luxury, adventure, and connection. Coppin’s vision was to create a place where people could escape, rejuvenate, and create lasting memories. Today, InterContinental Sorrento honours that vision by offering an unparalleled experience that merges history, design, luxury, and a sense of belonging. You have to go a long way to find anything else like it in Victoria, let alone this country.
