Edited by Travel Weekly


    Meriton Suites will add two states to its growing list of locations before the end of 2023, part of a $400m+ expansion project.

    The company will develop three new hotels, extending its luxury offering into Canberra, ACT and Melbourne, VIC.

    Located in the heart of the Melbourne and Canberra CBD’s, both new Meriton Suites hotels offer guests fine modern, spacious and comfortable stays, with some of the city’s most iconic landmarks and attractions right on their doorstep.

    The last location of the three to launch and another big milestone for the group is Liverpool, NSW.

    Liverpool is the 16th address for Meriton Suites in NSW alone, cementing it as the largest owner-operator of apartment-style suites in Australia.

    Canberra was the first location to launch (designed by Fender Katsalidis, MONA  &Australia 108) on 19 August, adding another 280 luxury rooms to the Meriton Suites portfolio.

    Liverpool’s 229 luxury rooms will be completed and open for guests from 23 September.

    Melbourne will boast 378 spacious rooms and officially open its doors on 26 September.

    Each new property comes with much anticipation, excitement and demand, with Canberra and Melbourne two highly requested destinations by loyal Meriton Suites guests across both corporate and leisure markets and will be home to one, two and three-bedroom suites.

    “We’re delighted to be opening three new Meriton Suites hotels across the nation, another big step for the company,” founder & MD, Meriton Group, Harry Triguboff, said.

    “Our investment into these new markets is a clear demonstration of our confidence in the continued growth of the domestic and international inbound markets, and the ongoing demand for luxury apartment-style hotels for the modern traveller.”

    Each property features state-of-the-art facilities including an all-hours fitness centre, an indoor
    heated swimming pool, spa and sauna as well as the luxurious room settings Meriton is synonymous with.
