Yotel to debut in Australia

Yotel has announced plans for its first property in Australia, located within walking distance of Melbourne’s central business district. The 244-room Yotel Melbourne is scheduled to open in 2022, on City Road in the city’s Southbank district. Facilities will include the group’s signature Komyuniti public space for co-working, informal meetings and relaxing, as well as an outdoor terrace, gym, and viewing deck with restaurant and bar. Commenting on the news Hubert Viriot, CEO of Yotel said: “Over the past two years, we have been actively searching for the right locations and partners to roll out our brands in Australia, a key market for our global expansion and a key feeder market for our hotels in the US, Singapore and the UK. “With solid market fundamentals and global appeal, Melbourne is the perfect gateway to launch our first property in the country. Moreover, we are delighted to enter the market with (owner and developer) Cornerstone Partners Group, an international leader in hospitality and real estate investments.” “Australia is a very sophisticated hotel market with strong stakeholders; however, we believe the affordable luxury segment has been underserved and that’s what Yotel intends to solve. “Yotel Melbourne will serve as a launching pad for our brand across the country, following a similar strategy as what we did in the USA, where we first opened a property in New York in 2011 and now have ten hotels under management with extensive operational synergies and strong distribution channels. “We are already exploring development opportunities in Sydney, Brisbane and Perth and we are confident we will soon have a robust hotel pipeline in place, targeting both our international customer base as well as the domestic market.” The Yotel brand launched in 2007 at Gatwick airport, and there are currently 30 properties either operating or under development, with plans to increase this to 60 by 2023. The group’s first Yotelpad is set to open in Switzerland next year, and Yotelair properties recently opened at Istanbul and Singapore Changi’s airports.

Radisson Blu to open hotel within Stuttgart’s Porsche Design Tower

Radisson Hotel Group has announced plans for a Stuggart property under its Radisson Blu brand. The 168-room hotel will be housed within the forthcoming Porsche Design Tower, which will also feature an adjacent building housing a new Porsche Centre with showroom, gallery and workshop. The Radisson Blu Hotel at Porsche Design Tower Stuttgart will occupy floors nine to 23 of the tower, and will offer 550sqm of meeting and events space across ten rooms, as well as a 10th floor restaurant and bar with views overlooking the city, two rooftop terraces, and a fitness centre and sauna. According to a press release from Porsche (released in December 2018), the group said it “could move into its new home at the end of 2021”, although the tower is not expected to be completed until a year later. Stuttgart-based Porsche opened its first Design Tower in Miami in 2017, and a residential tower is also under development in Frankfurt. Commenting on the news Elie Younes, executive vice president and chief development officer, Radisson Hotel Group, said: “This project represents everything Radisson Blu associates with and further cements our position as the largest upper upscale brand in Europe. The timeless architecture of the 90-metre Porsche Design Tower Stuttgart is the ideal locale for our guests to stay. “We are excited about the cooperation between Radisson Hotel Group and the projects developer and investor, Bülow AG and Porsche Design, and thank them for their trust.”
