Construction is well underway on the new Quest Bairnsdale in Dalmahoy Street, with the $40 million mixed-use property on track for a June/July 2025 opening.
Key representatives from Quest Apartment Hotels, as well as Developers Dahlsens and BFN Developments (BFN are also the Builder) and Architects Fenton Design Group, gathered on site recently for a project update on the milestone development.
One of those visiting was The Ascott Limited Australasia managing director, David Mansfield, who was pleased with how the project was progressing.
“We’re delighted to mark another key milestone in Quest Apartment Hotels’s ongoing growth, with construction of Quest Bairnsdale now underway,” Mr Mansfield said.
“The Gippsland region is experiencing extraordinary growth, and Quest is delighted to be supporting that demand through the provision of exceptional hospitality experiences.”
“East Gippsland’s visitor numbers increased by 26 per cent for the 2023 year[1] on the prior year, according to Tourism Research Australia, with an estimated 1.71 million visitors, the highest figure ever recorded, and we know anecdotally that growth has continued.
“Quest Bairnsdale will not only contribute to the local economy but also set a new standard for luxury and convenience. We are excited about the opportunities it brings for our guests and the local community.”
“Our goal remains to achieve significant growth targets under the ‘2030 growth strategy,’ aiming to reach over 200 Quest properties and 30 managed hotels by the end of the decade.”
“We are proud to work with Dahlsens, BFN Developments and Architects Fenton Design Group on this project.
“Their expertise and dedication ensure that this development will meet the highest standards of quality and excellence.”
Quest Bairnsdale will feature a three-storey, 60-room building, comprising 30 x studio rooms (includes two accessible rooms), 24×1 bedroom rooms (includes two accessible rooms) and 6×2 bedroom rooms. Work is progressing quickly and has already progressed to the third floor.
This latest project, which will add much-needed accommodation to the picturesque East Gippsland region, is a testament to Quest’s ongoing expansion and commitment to providing top-tier accommodation across Australia.
