Alpha Hotels and Resorts has opened its fourth and largest hotel so far with the re-branding of the 180-room Australis Sovereign Hotel.

The twin tower property, located on Ferny Avenue on the north side of Surfers Paradise, opened as Alpha Sovereign Hotel Gold Coast on 4 December 2015.

Alpha Hotels and Resorts Founder and Managing Partner, Jonathan Wooller, said an extensive refurbishment of the hotel has taken place this year, with further rejuvenation of its range of accommodation options for couples and families planned in 2016.

The property boasts well-designed leisure facilities with a large heated pool and spa, BBQ area, alfresco restaurant and bar, free unlimited WiFi, gym, games room and valet parking.

“The Gold Coast property is an important addition to the Alpha network, as our first hotel in such a popular and thriving holiday and leisure destination,” he said.

“The outlook for the region is very positive with recent increases in the number of international visitors.

“As the host destination for the 2018 Commonwealth Games, the Gold Coast accommodation sector will receive a boost in the lead up to, during and in the years after the event.”
