The hotel has 54 modern and spacious hotel rooms, with one- and two-bedroom apartments with full kitchens and laundry facilities. All major trams, trains and buses are also easily accessible and are less than 0.1km from the hotel front door.
Mr Chandnani said he was excited about the return of international travellers driving occupancy in 2022 and beyond.
Mr Chandnani said: “COVID has shown us the importance of being part of a strong network that can reach an audience beyond the local market. Now that Australia is open, it is a wonderful time to capitalise on this opportunity and get overseas travellers excited about what Melbourne has to offer.”
Trent Fraser, CEO of Choice Hotels Asia-Pac, said: “I’m thrilled to grow our metropolitan portfolio and welcome Mr Chandnani and his family to our network. There is no doubt that Melbourne’s CBD was hit hard during the pandemic, but with holidays at the forefront of the agenda now, particularly for international visitors, we’re looking forward to delivering on strong growth for our CBD hotels.”
