Frasers Hospitality has received the go-ahead for the development of a 283-room hotel in Sydney’s Chippendale.

Last week, the government gave the green light to a mixed use project at the former Carlton United Breweries site on the corner of Abercrombie St and Broadway St, at Central Park. In addition to the hotel, the site is slated to have 48 residential apartments, commercial office space and a childcare centre, built around the heritage-listed Australian Hotel and Abercrombie Street terraces.

According Travel Daily, the property will be branded as Capri by Fraser Hotel Residences.

This follows on from the May opening of the Capri by Fraser in Brisbane and joins the queue of properties that are currently under construction in Shanghai and Johor Bahru (Malaysia).

The 18 or 19 storey Sydney hotel will feature conference and ‘ancillary hotel facilities’ that are yet to be revealed.
