Illawarra Catholic Club redevelopment sees building start on new Travelodge Hurstville

Construction is about to begin on a new-build Travelodge Hurstville. 

Developed by the Illawarra Catholic Club, the 124-room Travelodge property will sit adjacent to both 'Club Central' and a five-level commercial tower in the southern suburb of Hurstville and will have direct access into the club.

A focus on form and functionality will see guest rooms fitted out with twin or king beds as well as triple and quad configurations, each with a refreshingly simple design.

Several new outlets and bars, including a rooftop restaurant, will open as part of the Illawarra Catholic Club redevelopment. A ballroom and generous meetings area will round out the function space. 

Club CEO Paul Richardson said the development marked a major milestone in the Club's expansion.  

“Since the ground-breaking in January, the rooftop restaurant is already a talking point as a stunning new space to enjoy in the heart of Hurstville,” he said. 

TFE Hotels CEO Antony Ritch said the company was entering a stage of strong growth and the Travelodge Hurstville would become the nineteenth Travelodge under TFE's management, with more in the development pipeline. 

“As Hurstville continues to grow and develop this property, in the heart of the community, will become the first hotel to open within a five-kilometre radius of the commercial district,” Ritch said.
