First look at Hawkesbury hotel’s ‘instagramable’ new guest rooms
Crowne Plaza Hawkesbury Valley has released a first look at their all-new accommodation offering.
Part of its multi-million-dollar transformation, the hotel has revealed 75 stunning guestrooms. These rooms are the first to have been re-imagined with light-filled and modern interiors.
Known for its iconic river, colonial heritage and picturesque countryside, the Hawkesbury has become one of Sydney’s most idyllic destinations for businesses, families and romantics alike.
The hotel’s design concept draws inspiration from the surrounding region and pays homage to its historic roots with elegant archways and smooth natural timber finishes exuding a heritage-inspired look. With the accompaniment of in-room Chrome Cast technology, eco low consumption LED lighting, ergonomic open plan wardrobes and a sense of fresh, uninterrupted space.
Andres Coll, senior associate from design company Stack said: “From the beginning, we knew that acknowledging and engaging the heritage aspect of the building was important – it shows character, class and history, three things we did not want to lose in this refurbishment.
“At the same time we agreed each room must embody a getaway from the city environment that feels lighter, modern and ‘instagramable’ the moment you walk inside. The use of natural materials, soft colour palates and long LED lighting really helped us achieve this, along with the sophistication of the in room technology and its ergonomic layout.”
Accom News is looking forward to seeing the completion of the refurbishment of this 105-room hotel, scheduled to be completed by April 2021.
The 18-month project is sure to raise eyebrows for leisure travellers and corporates seeking a tranquil destination to relax and recharge.
Hotel general manager Stephen Wills said: “The feedback from guests who have already stayed in our new rooms has been amazing. The light, fresh style and openness of each room is really the most notable change admired by those staying with us, along with the new bathrooms of course. Plus, we’re really excited because our best executive suites are still under refurbishment. We can’t wait for the feedback once these rooms are complete.”
While the Crowne Plaza Hawkesbury Valleys room refurbishment has taken centre stage, several other projects including the refurbishment of Villa Thalgo Day Spa and the hotels public guest bathrooms have also taken place. All this adds to the new look and feel of what now might be considered an unparalleled destination experience in the heart of the Hawkesbury.
