TFE Signs New-Build Apartment Hotel in Brisbane, Australia

Dark/Light Mode (06/02/24)  TFE has signed a new-build apartment hotel in Brisbane, Australia.

Scheduled to open in 2025, the WMK-designed 148-key Adina Apartment Hotel Chermside Brisbane will be located in the heart of one of Brisbane’s most vibrant and fastest growing suburbs, Chermside.

Located just 20 minutes’ drive north of the Brisbane city centre, the Queensland Government has identified Chermside as a key focal point for services outside the CBD and is emerging as one of Brisbane’s fastest growing suburbs with population figures set to almost double by 2036.

Hotel facilities will include an all-day dining restaurant, café cum bar, lobby lounge, a meeting room, gym, rainwater harvesting capabilities, and car parking.

“The signing of Adina Chermside Brisbane is a significant milestone for TFE Hotels, providing an opportunity for us to expand our Adina footprint from two hotels to three in the powerhouse state of Queensland,” said TFE Hotels’ Group Chief Operating Officer, Chris Sedgwick. “Adina Chermside brings a renowned, international hotel brand to this important suburb, filling a gap in the accommodation market for the north side of Brisbane and the Prince Charles Hospital. Significantly it also represents an incredible opportunity to expand our footprint to maximise on the incredible decade of transformation that lies ahead of the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.”

Adina Chermside is owned by Limitless Developments, a South-East Queensland-based company with a track record that has delivered a diverse portfolio worth over $150 million, with a further $160 million in its pipeline.

Owner, Nick Barr, has more than 25 years of personal experience in Brisbane and his passion for progress is matched only by his interest in grassroot support and fundraising for the neighbourhoods he builds in.

This year, Nick is competing in the Chain Reaction Challenge - a 1,000km cycling event to raise funds for The Prince Charles Hospital Foundation, the Common Good.

“We are a homegrown developer who understands Brisbane’s inner north intimately, and we’re confident that Adina Chermside will become the flagship hotel for this burgeoning part of the city,” Nick said. “We are also excited to partner with TFE Hotels – an Australian-born company and experienced hotel operator and developer in their own right - to bring this future-thinking development to life. The Chermside area is transitioning, and we anticipate that the demand for quality corporate, travel and health-based travel accommodation needs in the area will only continue to increase in the next five to ten years.”

As part of the State Government’s Queensland Capacity Expansion Program, The Prince Charles Hospital – which is adjacent to the Adina Chermside site – is confirmed to undertake a A$300m expansion commencing in December 2024, which will add an additional 93 beds, and a further four-storey expansion on the existing building to be completed by 2028.

Chermside is also home to one of the largest shopping centres in the country - Westfield Chermside, providing shopaholics with plenty of retail therapy. It was one of the first shopping malls to be built in Australia and is as popular now as it was when it first opened to great fanfare back in 1957.
