Accor has opened a new seaside hotel in the town of Bundy, located two hours south of Perth. The Mantra Bunbury Lighthouse is comprised of 71 rooms, complete with an indoor swimming pool, sauna and spa, the largest conference venue in the town, and an onside restaurant and bar. The location overlooks the Indian Ocean and has picturesque views of the iconic Bunbury Lighthouse.
Owned by Mandala Hospitality Group, this marks the fifth franchise agreement between the two companies. Accor Pacific CEO Sarah Derry said that this partnership had created great development for the company.
“Mantra Bunbury Lighthouse represents an exciting opportunity for Accor to expand its network in Western Australia and focus on our strategy to deliver exceptional accommodation in all locations. We look forward to leveraging our global expertise in hospitality to deliver unforgettable moments to guests,” said Derry.
This is the first time that Accor and Mandala Hospitality Group have partnered in Western Australia. Murray Emerton, Mandala Hospitality Group Manager, added that the hotel’s location would be a great opportunity for both parties and an asset to the community.
“Bunbury, a dynamic destination for both business and leisure, presents an exciting opportunity for our hotel,” Emerton said.
“Over the next 12 months, we anticipate breathing new life into this remarkable property through a planned soft refurbishment. Together with Accor, we aim to create incredible experiences for our valued guests.”
Mantra was established in 2007 and has since grown into one of the largest brands in Accor’s portfolio, with 75 properties located across Australia.
