East Hotel embodies the renewed energy and style of our capital city, with the added perk of significantly fewer roundabouts and a noticeable absence of stray politicians milling about.

Along with the latest and greatest from the hospitality space, this week’s hotel wrap has made us a lot hungrier than usual (read until the end to find out why).

This week, we took East Hotel’s general manager aside for an uber-private chat in a secret location. Okay, fine – we emailed him.

Today, we’re very confused if it’s Thursday or Friday – but here’s a hotel wrap anyway. If you need us this afternoon, too bad. We’re disappearing until Tuesday (like Jesus did).

There’s only two topics of conversation at Travel Weekly today – our Hotel Wrap & the ongoing “custard: hot or cold?” debate.

If there’s one thing we look forward to on Thursdays, it’s the Big Fat Hotel Wrap. That, and the self-appointed early mark at 3pm.

From glamping in Port Stephens and multi-million dollar hotel makeovers to rooms that help you sleep better, this week’s Big Fat Hotel Wrap has it all.
