The company is already welcoming Marriott Adelaide Hotel in mid-2024, and this latest announcement will increase the brand’s presence in the City of Churches.
Marriott International has signed an agreement with Australian property developers Freemasons South Australia and Northern Territory, and Pelligra Group, to launch Westin Adelaide.
Located at 254 North Terrace, in Adelaide’s CBD, the 236-room new-build hotel – including 222 premium rooms and 14 suites – will preserve its historic Freemasons building and facade while integrating the modern 33-story Keystone Adelaide Tower.
The hotel will occupy 19 levels of the tower as well as a Freemasons Hall and Grand Lodge, retail outlets, office tenancies, a rooftop restaurant and observatory.
The Westin Adelaide will also feature a sky lobby, restaurant, lobby lounge, cafe, fitness centre, swimming pool, day spa, executive club lounge and 700 square metres of event and meeting space.
“The project’s location in the CBD and retention of its iconic heritage building will be key ingredients for the distinctive positioning of a hotel that will have global pedigree,” says Richard Crawford, Marriott International’s vice president of hotel development for Australia, New Zealand and Pacific.
The new venture will add to a portfolio of more than 240 Westin hotels worldwide.
“This will be the fifth Westin property in the Australia-Pacific region, joining high-profile Westin hotels in Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Fiji,” says Sean Hunt, Marriott International’s area vice president for Australia, New Zealand and Pacific.”
