Sydney’s new CBD Hotel
Sydney’s latest hotel at 19 - 325 Sussex Street is all part of TFE Hotels’ New Generation Vibe label.
The hotel, featuring a bespoke all-day dining restaurant, fully equipped modern gymnasium, a world class roof top bar with infinity edge pool and an urban styled grand façade entry is scheduled to open in 2019.
It will be well-timed with Sydney’s hotel market already stretched to capacity and with a number of large marquee conferences set to see as many as 10,000 delegates at any one time descending on the city,
The 4½ star hotel will offer views over the new Darling Harbour precinct and CBD skyline.
Located on the upper end of Chinatown next to the Darling Quarter, it’s likely to be a welcome addition to the emerging dining scene in the precinct.
It’s all New York inspired design including curved rainfall showers, embedded window day lounges and retro bathroom fixtures, put together by the winning architect WMK also selected as interior designer.
Sydney based residential property developer Icon Oceania, a Sydney based property is in charge of the Vibe Sydney Darling Harbour development with its joint venture partners, Aura Fund.
“The unprecedented number of inbound arrivals into Sydney in particular with the Chinese, coupled with the timely completion of the CBD light rail network, ICC, Darling Live and the Barangaroo district will have a positive impact on the new hotel,” Icon Oceania director Nico Tjen told Colliers.
“Vibe Darling Harbour will be a well-timed addition to the market. Sydney’s hotel market will be stretched to capacity and with a number of large marquee conferences slated, as many as 10,000 delegates at any one time will descend on the city,” said Raymond Tran, Transactions Services at Colliers International.
“Sydney is one of Asia Pacific’s best performing hotel markets and this was evident in the strong interest shown by both domestic and international hotel operators, looking to further establish themselves in the CBD market”, said Christopher Milou, Director of hotel valuations at Colliers International.
