New Year's only comes once a year. Making it a glamorous one this year by booking a room in the city is a no-brainer.

Although we're yet to hear if fireworks will be lighting up the skies over Melbourne this year, we can confirm that these hotel options are worthy of a celebration to bid adieu to 2021.
