InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has signed a management agreement for a new Crowne Plaza hotel in Sydney’s central business district.
Scheduled to open in 2019, the 160-room Crowne Plaza Sydney Darling Harbour will be located close to the new Sydney International Convention Centre in the Darling Quarter and will be targeted at business travellers, with facilities including five meeting rooms and a 24-hour business centre.
Other hotel features include a restaurant, bar, fitness centre and outdoor pool.
“Sydney’s CBD is undergoing some exciting redevelopment and the location and proposition of the new Crowne Plaza Sydney Darling Harbour will make it a leading choice for both business and leisure guests,” said Matthew Tripolone, IHG’s head of development for Australasia.
“The hotel will form part of an exciting mixed use development in a strategically important growth corridor within the Sydney CBD.”
IHG currently operates 25 hotels across three brands (InterContinental, Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn) in Australia, with a further six properties due to open in the next five years.
