A Tradition of Excellence: Our 2025 Victorian Accommodation Awards
What a year it has been! We are over the moon to share that Hyatt Place Melbourne Caribbean Park walked away with not one, not two, but three awards at the 2025 Victorian Accommodation Awards for Excellence.
Here are what we are celebrating:
Hotel Restaurant of the Year (Mid and Superior Hotels) – for the second year in a row!
Best Marketing Initiative
Marketing Employee of the Year
Back-to-Back Restaurant Success
Winning Hotel Restaurant of the Year once was an unforgettable moment – winning it again this year is something we will treasure forever. Archie’s Farm Restaurant & Bar has grown into a dining destination loved by both travelers and locals, thanks to our talented team, creative menus, and the beautiful local ingredients we are so lucky to work with.
From perfectly grilled ribeye to decadent high tea and our signature Archie’s Burger, every dish tells a story of Victoria’s incredible produce. And behind the scenes, our chefs and service team pour their passion into every plate, every smile, and every dining experience.
This year, our Food & Beverage team are going a step beyond with Le Petit Chef, an immersive theatre dining experience where 3D animation and in-person theatre performance combine to delight and surprise our guests. This innovative experience showcased our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what dining can be, making meals unforgettable.
A Win for Creativity and Connection
We are also incredibly proud to be recognized for Best Marketing Initiative. This award is about more than just campaigns – it is about the way we tell stories, connect with our community, and bring people closer to the heart of our hotel.
And to top it off, our very own Emmelyn Khoo took home Marketing Employee of the Year! This recognition celebrates the creativity, innovation, and drive that help shape our brand and how it brings meaning as well as impression to our target audience.
Building on Last Year’s Success
If this feels a little familiar, you are right – last year we were also honoured with multiple awards, including Hotel Restaurant of the Year, Best ESG Initiative, and Executive of the Year. To continue that momentum and add three more wins this year makes us incredibly proud of the journey we are on.

So here’s to celebrating the journey, the food, the creativity, and above all, the people who make Hyatt Place Melbourne Caribbean Park what it is. We cannot wait to welcome you back soon and raise a glass together.
