This prestigious accolade was announced on Thursday 13th June 2013 at the TAA Victoria State Awards for Excellence Dinner held in Grand Hyatt Melbourne's Savoy Ballroom. The TAA Awards for Excellence showcases the finest hotels in metropolitan and regional Victoria, which play such a vital role in the development of the Hotel Industry. The 'Hotel Bar of Year' award was jointly accepted by Grand Hyatt Melbourne General Manager, Mr Ilan Weill, and Ms Ricarda Schneider, the hotel's Director of Food & Beverage. Both were extremely honoured to accept the award, which is a reflection of the quality
and unique offerings that the ru-co team strive to provide on a nightly basis.
With the newly launched Happy Hour specials and DJ Fridays, ru-co is reviving the art of conversation.
ru-co's concoction of seductive ambiance, striking sculptures and master mixologists, reaffirm its position as much more than a hotel bar. Featuring a towering wine wall encasing over 2,700 premium bottles as well as an extensive list of signature martinis, classic cocktails, single malt whiskies and cognacs, this dynamic venue offers a sophisticated drink to a sophisticated crowd.
