The extension was undertaken to better cater to corporate travellers doing business within the burgeoning tourist location. 

Demand for accommodation in Scarborough has been stimulated by the addition of several major high-rise developments in the area, including the planned development of the 42 and 33-story twin-towers, a mixed-use development more than double the height of the existing tallest structure in the area.

Scarborough has also recently seen the completion of a $100 million foreshore redevelopment, which delivered a series of contemporary recreation spaces, community amenities and improved beach access. The project has positioned Scarborough as Australia’s leading beachfront destination.

Quest Scarborough franchisee, Ronnie Yu was delighted to announce the completion of the extension.

“We are excited to showcase the amazing additions to the property. The new, modern apartments will further strengthen our position as a premium accommodation provider in the area, at a time when demand is increasing.

“Most of our guests are travelling for business, therefore the property needed to provide a balance between offering a comfortable ‘home away from home’ as well as providing the facilities they require to work productively and efficiently,” said Mr. Yu.

The property now features 52 apartments in total, comprising studio, one and two-bedroom configurations, and includes on-site parking, a conference room, gym and swimming pool. The hotel is located 200m from Perth’s iconic Scarborough beach and local restaurants.

The broad pipeline of 12 new property openings over the next 18 months across Australia, New Zealand and the UK, shows substantial growth for Quest. In addition to the Scarborough extension, this includes properties in St Kilda Road, Notting Hill, Burwood East and NewQuay (VIC); Canberra City Walk (ACT); South Perth foreshore (WA); Orange (NSW); Quest on Manchester, Quest Tauranga Central, Quest on Tuam and Quest Mount Eden (NZ) and Liverpool (UK).
