AccorHotel’s Novotel brand has been selected for a four-star hotel to be developed next to the new wing of Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC).
The 347-key Novotel Melbourne South Wharf will sit close to the expanded exhibition space of the MCEC, providing business and leisure guests more high-quality accommodation options on the Yarra River’s south bank.
Scheduled to open by 1Q2018, the new-build encompasses Novotel signatures such as Live N’ Dream bedding, interactive TVs and FairTrade bathroom amenities as well as free barista coffee at breakfast.
AccorHotels’ Pacific chief operating officer Simon McGrath: “Significant investment in infrastructure such as this Novotel hotel will further increase the capacity for Melbourne to attract significant events, conferences and exhibitions and cater to the domestic and international travel markets.”
Novotel Melbourne South Wharf will complement other Novotel properties in the city – Novotel Melbourne on Collins, Novotel Melbourne Glen Waverley and Novotel Melbourne St Kilda.
