HOTEL 101 to build a 766-room hotel in Melbourne CBD

HOTEL 101 will construct a 766-room hotel in Melbourne’s CBD.

Hotel101 Global Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: HBNB) (“Hotel101” or “Hotel101 Global”) is a leading asset-light, prop-tech hospitality platform that is pioneering a worldwide standardized “condotel” business model. Listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange and a subsidiary of Philippine-listed DoubleDragon Corporation (PSE: DD), it announces the signing of binding agreements to develop a 766-room Hotel101 center in Melbourne’s Central Business District at 540 Flinders Lane, Australia.

This development marks a key milestone in the company’s international growth, expanding its innovative “condotel” model to one of Australia’s most lively and diverse cities. The Melbourne hotel is projected to open in 2029.

The hotel will be situated in Melbourne’s central business district along the famous Flinders Lane, a key area known for its laneways, street art, boutique shops, top-tier restaurants, and close proximity to major attractions like Federation Square, Flinders Street Station, the Yarra River, and Southbank.

This strategically situated property offers convenient proximity to Melbourne’s vibrant cultural districts, bustling commercial hubs, and premier sporting venues, making it an excellent choice for both leisure and business travelers seeking effortless access to key attractions and facilities. Additionally, it complements the array of high-end hotels already available in the CBD, enhancing the area’s luxury offerings.

Located in the center of Melbourne at 540 Flinders Lane, this location offers quick access to Flinders Street and Southern Cross Train Stations, as well as being within walking distance of the Southbank Entertainment Precinct and free tram zones. Guests can enjoy seamless connectivity to major landmarks such as Federation Square, the Arts Centre, and the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).

Ideally positioned to benefit from Melbourne’s vibrant tourism scene, fueled by year-round, world-class events such as the Australian Open, the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, and the Melbourne Cup Carnival, all of which increase hotel occupancy and generate substantial economic benefits.

Hotel101-Melbourne is anticipated to generate approximately AU$323.6 million (roughly Php 12.6 billion) in sales revenue, which will be a significant component of Hotel101 Global’s broader international expansion strategy.

The Melbourne property offers a comprehensive range of 4-star amenities at competitive prices, including spacious meeting rooms and a state-of-the-art conference center designed to host corporate events, seminars, and workshops. In line with Hotel101’s global standards, guests can expect modern, well-appointed rooms with contemporary furnishings, along with 24/7 reception services to assist with any guest needs.

The hotel will feature all-day dining options in its on-site restaurant, a relaxing swimming pool, a fully equipped large gymnasium, a dedicated business center for corporate guests, a children’s pool for families, a stylish rooftop bar offering panoramic city views, ample parking facilities, luggage storage services, and various other guest amenities to enhance comfort and convenience.

The development remains subject to obtaining all necessary national, regional, and municipal regulatory approvals and permits, which are standard procedures in such large-scale projects.
