Adding to the grand luxury suite, the 12 new rooms and suites comprise of four smaller suites, including a two-bedroom deluxe suite, bringing the resort’s total accommodation offering to 223 rooms.
Architect Michael Munro from Hoskins Munro designed the new accommodation wing while Debbie Schwartz, wife of hotel owner Dr Jerry Schwartz, did the interior design.
Bernie Boller, general manager for Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery said: “We are thrilled with how the new rooms and suites have come together and we were honoured to have had the 14th Dalai Lama stay in the grand luxury suite for the duration of his five-day spiritual retreat at the resort and give it his seal of approval.
“After [the Dalai Lama] confirmed he would be staying with us and holding his retreat in the grounds of our resort back in 2013, it was the catalyst for us to get the new build suites built and ready in time for his arrival.”
