Six-star hotel tower to be ‘centerpiece’ of Jupiters, says Echo chairman
At a ceremony for the new six-star 17-storey hotel tower to be built in front of the existing hotel and completed in time for the 2018 Commonwealth Games, Echo Entertainment chairman John O’Neill said the development would make the Gold Coast and Queensland proud.
“We are committed to positioning Jupiters as a world-class integrated resort and assist in the exciting transformation of the Gold Coast before, during and after its hosting of the 2018 Commonwealth Games,” he said.
“Our six-star hotel tower has a construction completion date that will ensure its readiness for the Commonwealth Games. The tower will offer new levels of luxury and only the best in finishes and amenities, not to mention six-star service.”
Queensland Premier, Annastacia Palaszczuk joined Mr O’Neill, Echo Entertainment CEO, Matt Bekier, and Echo Entertainment managing director Queensland Geoff Hogg, at the event to celebrate a development that it claims will generate more than 1000 jobs.
Construction of the first six-star hotel to be built on the Gold Coast in more than 15 years will also be undertaken by an Australian-based company, it was announced.
“This project is a celebration of the Gold Coast,” said Mr Bekier.
“To that end, we have been working with local designers and international architects to ensure it will resonate with the local community while also driving broader domestic and international appeal.
“These are exciting times for the Gold Coast and we’re delighted to be playing what we believe will be a key role in advancing the growth of tourism and jobs creation in the region.”
