A new hotel featuring a 10-storey hanging garden will open in Sydney, Australia, in 2020.
Chinese development company Linzhu has confirmed a deal with InterContinental Hotels Group to open the 17-storey Holiday Inn Sydney Central hotel at 430 Pitt Street next to Belmore Park and the Capitol Theatre.
With 305 rooms, the flagship hotel is the largest midscale property in the Sydney central business district and will feature a design-led restaurant, terrace bar and 120-seat meeting space.
The hotel will be part of a mixed-use development that will include a 1,000 square metre private art gallery and a retail concourse. The tower will feature a sloping roof and ‘green waterfalls’. It will have easy access to George Street light rail, Central Station and Sydney’s new convention centre.
