The Federal Hotel and Coffee Palace was a landmark building in Melbourne, Victoria, built in the late 19th century. It was for a time Australia's largest hotel. Despite a campaign for its preservation, it was demolished in 1973. == Design & construction == In 1885, the local businessmen James Mirams and James Munro held a contest for the design of a hotel that would be the finest in the city. It was to be built at 555 Collins Street, on one of Melbourne's main thoroughfares. The winning design by William Pitt, combined a variety of historic styles of architecture with the prevailing Second Empire school.〔(Walking Melbourne )〕 It had an elaborate stone facade topped with a doomed roof. The interior had impressively appointed dining and entertaining rooms on the lower two floors and an open plan, four storey marble lobby leading to the guest rooms. The hotel had 370 guest bedrooms, with a penthouse suite in the tower at the top of the building. The construction took five million bricks and cost £110 000.
