A raft of new appointments is making waves at home and across the pond.

Chris Fozard of the Budget Motel Chain says the Victorian government needs to work with Airbnb to find a solution, instead of hastily introducing laws as a “knee-jerk reaction” to the issue of disruptive and violent guests.

Sydney has been named one of the world’s most expensive cities for Airbnb rentals - but that may be about to change.

Meriton Group, owned by billionaire Harry Triguboff, is moving ahead with plans for major apartment developments in Parramatta and Macquarie Park.

Package travellers to Australia book earlier, stay longer, cancel less and spend more than their non-package counterparts, says the latest Expedia data.

The management rights of two landmark oceanfront resorts on Queensland’s Sunshine and Fraser coasts have sold for a figure close to $15 million.

The world's hotels dispose of some ten billion pieces of packaging from bathroom amenities every year - and the vast majority of those products are only partially used.

Airbnb is urging the Victorian government to pass ‘anti-party laws’ next week following a spate of violent incidents in short-let party rentals culminating in the fatal stabbing of 19-year-old Laa Chol.

Meriton Property Services has been fined $3 million by the Federal Court for failing to let guests write honest TripAdvisor reviews.

Most traditional accommodation providers in Australia failed to recognise this changing dynamic and many are feeling the impact now as their once regular clientele are heading elsewhere.
