The inner-Melbourne suburb of Richmond will welcome a new 160-room Holiday Inn in 2023 after a new management agreement was signed this week.
Part of a mixed-use development, the hotel is being developed by InterContinental Hotel Group, in collaboration with a joint venture between Pelligra Group, PrimeLand Group and Diamond Hospitality Singapore.
The location is opposite Burnley Station with proximity to MCG and Rod Laver Arena, making it a potential home away from home for football, tennis and cricket fans.
