Accor, the largest hotel operator in Australia, in partnership with Yaralla Sports Club, is thrilled to announce the opening of Peppers Gladstone, the region's first five-star hotel.

The experiential 32-room Peppers Gladstone adjoins the existing 60-room Mantra Gladstone at the Yaralla Sports Club and is operated as a dual-branded hotel concept - an area of expertise for Accor in the Australian hotel sector.

This is the first new-build hotel to open in the region in over a decade, setting a new benchmark for high-end accommodation in Gladstone and the broader Central Queensland region.

Accor Pacific Chief Operating Officer PM&E, Adrian Williams, said: “The debut of Peppers Gladstone is a proud moment for Accor as it brings a new level of hospitality to Central Queensland. This hotel is a unique addition to our premium brand portfolio and exemplifies our commitment to creating extraordinary guest experiences, blending Peppers' signature style with the charm of Gladstone.”

Yaralla Sports Club, Chief Executive Officer, Will Schroeder, said: "The opening of Peppers Gladstone is an exciting moment for our region. Together with Accor, we’re delivering a world-class accommodation option that’s set to become the ultimate destination for visitors, whether they’re here for business, a special event, or to explore our beautiful coastline."

Designed by BSPN Architects and constructed by Mettle Projects, Peppers Gladstone offers a range of accommodation options, from King Studio Rooms to Superior Two Bedroom Apartments. All guestrooms feature fully equipped kitchens, king-sized beds, large televisions with Chromecast capabilities, and a complimentary non-alcoholic minibar. Every room has been carefully curated to reflect the surrounding landscapes - from the bush to the city, lush rainforests, and breathtaking coastline.

Guests can also enjoy the hotel’s high-end amenities, including a heated outdoor swimming pool, complimentary drinks at the pool deck bar (during select hours), exclusive access to Peppers' eight-seater cinema room, a well-appointed gym, secure undercover parking, Wi-Fi, and a choice of two onsite restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The member's lounge provides a welcoming space for a hot or cold beverage.

The fusion of Peppers Gladstone and Mantra Gladstone allows the property to accommodate over 150 guests, enhancing the city’s ability to host small to large-scale meetings, expos and weddings within its versatile conference spaces.

Located just minutes from the CBD, Peppers Gladstone offers an advantageous location adjoining the Yaralla Sports Club, making it even more appealing for guests.

Situated on Queensland’s Capricorn Coast, part of the Southern Great Barrier Reef region, Peppers Gladstone provides leisure travellers with a contemporary base before or after any tours to the reef.

Peppers Gladstone joins a network of more than 20 Peppers retreats, resorts, and hotels across Australia, New Zealand, and Indonesia, expanding the brand’s rich legacy as it celebrates its 40th anniversary.
