Swiss heritage hotel brand, Mövenpick, is continuing along Australia's east coast, with Accor confirming it will add Brisbane to its portfolio.
Mövenpick will feature in a new-build dual-tower project in Brisbane's Spring Hill, in partnership with the development group, Keylin.
With 96 rooms over 15 storeys, Mövenpick Hotel Brisbane Spring Hill will dazzle guests with a two-storey lobby, eight-metre ceilings, marble columns and terrazzo flooring.
The exterior will have an elevated garden façade, with each room having views of the city. The second tower in the project will be private residences.
The hotel will deliver on its famous hallmarks, including the daily 'Chocolate Hour', where guests can sample and purchase a range of branded delicacies. Facilities will include a 25-metre swimming pool, a restaurant and bar, fitness centre and conference rooms.
The announcement caps an impressive year for Mövenpick, which has opened two new hotels in Australia, first in Hobart and then in Melbourne.
Simon McGrath, Accor Pacific CEO, said he was excited to be bringing Mövenpick to Queensland.
The elevated setting and art-deco design are a perfect fit for the Mövenpick aesthetic, he said. Mövenpick Hotel Brisbane Spring Hill will add to the city's vibrant culinary scene while blending the brand's heritage with an unrivalled experience.
Construction is due to begin this year and is estimated to be complete in 2024.
