Melbourne Is Australia's Best City

Melbourne

... Or at least that's what the folks at Australian Traveller have decided.


Some 1100 Aussies were surveyed for the magazine's comprehensive poll — we have no idea how representative these 1100 people are of Australia's population as a whole, but we do know they asked them a lot of questions.

Poll respondents were asked to vote on everything from their favourite guided tour experience to their favourite train journey, and the results may surprise you (especially if your mind doesn't immediately connect 'Tasmania' with 'luxury').

Best City — Melbourne
Best Town — Daylesford
Best Travel Experience — Queensland Beach Holiday
Best Summer Holiday — Noosa
Best Winter Holiday — Melbourne
Most Romantic City — Melbourne
Ultimate Dream Destination — The Kimberley
Best Luxe Hotel — Saffire Freycinet, Tasmania
Best Resort — Qualia, Hamilton Island
Best Adventure Holiday Destination — The Kimberley
Best Affordable Hotel Brand — Mantra Group
Best B&B — Margaret River Guest House
Best Guided Tour Experience — 4WDing on Fraser Island
Best Bar — Opera Bar, Sydney
Best Restaurant — Quay Restaurant, Sydney
Best Airline — Qantas
Best Regional Airline — Regional Express
Best Campsite — Big4 Adventure Whitsunday Resort
Best Train Journey — The Ghan
Best Cruise Experience — The Kimberley

Of course, this poll doesn't really settle the debate of which Australian city is the best to actually live in — but we probably shouldn't expect the answer to that question to come from Australian Traveller magazine.
