“Highly sought-after, Queen’s Wharf Residences has become Queensland’s fastest selling development, offering more than just a place to stay, but an unprecedented benchmark in urban tourism for Brisbane,” said Far East Consortium’s head of sales and marketing for Australia, Lauren Sheldon.
“The scale of this project demanded a management partner with unmatched expertise to offer the premium management guests of Queen’s Wharf Residences will expect, and Minor Hotels’ extensive experience in property management across Australasia and beyond instils us with confidence that they are the ideal partner to deliver on this promise.”
Guests at Queen’s Wharf Residences will have access to a pool, spa, steam room, gym and theatre as well as the varied dining and bar options across the wider $3.6 billion Queen’s Wharf precinct.
The short-stay portion of the tower will provide another accommodation option for those attending events at The Star Brisbane’s Event Centre, also part of the Queen’s Wharf precinct.
“We are excited to add such a landmark Brisbane development to our portfolio, offering a product unlike anything the city has seen before with respect to size and scale, and proximity to Brisbane CBD’s most exciting dining and entertainment precinct,” said Minor Hotels’ chief operating officer for Australasia, Craig Hooley.
“Given our extensive experience managing over 550 properties globally, including 11 existing properties in Brisbane CBD, we are well-equipped to manage this pioneering development which further establishes Brisbane’s position on the world stage as a global destination for entertainment, leisure and tourism.”
Minor Hotels is the company behind brands including Oaks Hotels and Resorts and Avani. The group already manages several apartment style developments under its Avani brand in Australia.
