The hotel offering of 464 rooms across two Accor brands – a Novotel and ibis Styles – will include a two-level co-working hub when it opens on July 1.
, and more than three years later than originally planned, Melbourne Airport and accommodation giant Accor are putting the finishing touches on the precinct’s first international hotel project in over two decades.
While the two new hotels will substantially improve the accommodation offering at the busy airport, the most eye-catching feature of new $230 million development is the futuristic structure hovering between them. “Not only will the new-build hotels provide more choice for travellers seeking a place to stay, they will also offer a welcoming hub for the workers in the airport precinct,” Mr Williams said.
Last financial year, 30.8 million people passed through the airport, a 138 per cent rise on the 2022 financial year and 18 per cent higher than 2019 pre-pandemic year.
