New Parkroyal planned for Melbourne

Pan Pacific has signed four management contracts to add three Parkroyal hotels and one Pan Pacific hotel to its portfolio across Asia Pacific – namely in Australia, China and Myanmar.

With these additions, the group now owns and/or manages 38 hotels, resorts and serviced suites with close to 12,000 rooms in Asia, Oceania and North America, including those under development.

“With its prevailing global economic and tourism influence, Asia Pacific is a key growth region for the group and we are delighted to be making headway in our target markets where we have already established iconic hotels,” said Bernold Schroeder, chief executive officer, Pan Pacific Hotels Group.

Parkroyal Melbourne – The fourth Parkroyal hotel in Australia and second in Melbourne – Parkroyal Melbourne – will open in 2016 in the Digital Harbour Precinct of Melbourne Docklands, a premium waterfront development that is part of an on-going project to renew the city’s CBD.

Spanning the first 18 storeys of The Altus, a 37-storey hotel and apartment complex, Parkroyal Melbourne will offer panoramic views of the city centre and the Victoria Harbour waterfront. It is also one of the first hotels in Melbourne Docklands targeting an Award of Merit under the Docklands Ecologically Sustainable Development Guide.

Guests at the 281-room Parkroyal Melbourne will be able to enjoy easy access to key business centres and modern landmarks such as Etihad Stadium and Southern Cross Station. Melbourne’s famed tram network lies just outside the hotel’s doors and lifestyle attractions, connecting guests to a diverse variety of events, dining and entertainment hotspots.
