Peppers Hotels has opened their first CBD based hotel in the heart of Canberra’s vibrant New Acton precinct, as the group eyes more urban locations for the brand’s future.
Peppers Gallery Hotel Canberra is an 80-room boutique hotel, formerly known as the Diament Hotel. Rooms are appointed with Bang and Olufsen plasma TVs, iPod docking stations, plunger coffee makers, free broadband access, and luxurious bathrooms with rain shower and marble vanity tops.
There are two events spaces which each offer a boardroom style capacity of 14 people or cocktail style for 36 people and include WiFi internet access. Larger scale functions for up to 100 people can be held in Bicicletta Italian Restaurant or for up to 50 people in both the Library Bar, or the outdoor Courtyard in the summer months.
Peppers is Mantra Group’s deluxe hotel brand and includes a collection of over 30 boutique retreats, resorts and CBD hotels across Australia and New Zealand.
The addition of Peppers Gallery Hotel Canberra signifies the evolution of the Peppers brand which started as a small group of boutique retreats 30 years ago; expanding to include larger coastal resorts over the last 10 years before its first foray into metropolitan style accommodation with the opening of Peppers Broadbeach in 2010.
Most recently the brand moved into Asia with the opening of Peppers Sentosa Seminyak in Indonesia.
Mantra Group CEO Bob East said the company would continue to seek out opportunities for further CBD expansion for the Peppers brand.
“It has always been our objective to take the Peppers brand to CBD locations and it is great to see Peppers in the national capital,” said Mr. East.
“We have a brand new Peppers development set to open in Melbourne’s Docklands precinct in 2016 and will continue to seek out further CBD opportunities in the meantime.”
