Quest Apartment Hotels opened its latest property, Quest Griffith, a AUD$16 million development offering 68 studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments.
Quest CEO, Zed Sanjana, expressed his confidence in the group’s decision to open its latest property in this burgeoning region.
“Griffith is a prime example of Quest’s promise to go to where the corporate market needs its unique style of apartment hotel accommodation and we predict that demand is only going to increase,” he said.
“Griffith’s contribution to both the state of New South Wales and the Australian agriculture industries is extraordinary – producing 75% of NSW’s wine grapes, 70% of NSW’s citrus and 90% of Australia’s rice.
“The region’s wine industry is booming, exporting over $800 million of wine per year. Travel to the area is also rapidly increasing, with a strong focus on business travel.
“Griffith is a major hub of the Riverina region, accommodating all health, retail, banking, and education facilities, supporting a wider population catchment double the size of Griffith, making it the ideal location for our 24th Quest property in New South Wales,” Sanjana said.
Quest Griffith General Managers Fleur and Joshua Nadzielski expressed their excitement about welcoming their first guests to the stunning new property.
“We are thrilled to be opening Quest Griffith today. It is such an amazing opportunity as we see Griffith continuing to develop. The quality of the property is of the highest standard and we can’t wait to deliver the best possible customer service to ensure each guest has the premium experience they expect from a Quest Apartment Hotel.
“Current development and activity within Griffith demonstrates a bright future for the new property. The addition of these apartments is an asset to the region, and will help provide much-needed accommodation for guests doing business in the region, as well as providing a great accommodation option for tourists,” Mrs Nadzielski said.
The broad pipeline of 10 new property openings over the next three years across Australia shows substantial growth for Quest. In addition to Griffith, this includes: Fremantle, Midland and Innaloo (WA); Macquarie Park and Newcastle West (NSW); Dandenong Central and 478 St Kilda Road (VIC); and Eight Mile Plains and Springfield (QLD).
