New Toga Hotel: Travelodge Hotel Hobart

Toga Hotels takes its first bite into the Apple Isle & extends its portfolio Australia-wide with the 17th Travelodge Hotel

Toga Hotels is proud to announce the arrival of the Travelodge Hotels brand in Hobart. As of late March 2013, the Leisure Inn Hobart Macquarie will be known as Travelodge Hotel Hobart.

The 131 room hotel is newly refurbished and undoubtedly offers the best value hotel option for guests in Tasmania’s dynamic and exciting capital city. Its features include: 24 hour Reception, a breakfast lounge, room service and complimentary parking. The guest rooms are complete with: LCD televisions, ensuite bathrooms, kitchenettes, heating and views overlooking the beautiful Mount Wellington or Hobart city.*

Travelodge Hotel Hobart is centrally located – the charming dining and shopping spots of Battery Point, Salamanca Place, Constitution Dock and the waterfront are just a relaxed stroll away. The hotel is also a great base from which to explore attractions such as: the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery and the ever intriguing Museum of Old and New Art. For corporate travellers, key businesses are located close by to the hotel as is the Royal Hobart Hospital.

Allan Vidor, Managing Director of Toga Group, said, “We are delighted to announce the acquisition of a new hotel in Hobart – to be known as Travelodge Hotel Hobart. The Tasmanian location of the 17th Travelodge Hotel marks an important milestone for Toga Hotels, now proudly operating hotels and apartment hotels in each state and territory of Australia. Toga Hotels is thrilled to be working in partnership with the Zonie Group on this new hotel acquisition.”

Mr Nick Tizzone, Director of Zonie, said, “Zonie Group is excited to have acquired the Leisure Inn Hobart Macquarie which is a significant hotel in a tightly held market. We are also pleased to have expanded our relationship with Toga Hotels which has operated our Adina Apartment Hotel Coogee (formerly Medina) property for the last [15] years with great success.”

The acquisition of Travelodge Hotel Hobart is in line with Toga Hotels’ ongoing ambitious growth strategy. Other upcoming new hotels include: Adina Apartment Hotel Bondi Beach (2013), Adina Apartment Hotel Mascot (2014), Adina Apartment Hotel Royal Randwick Racecourse (2014), Travelodge Hotel Mariners Tuggerah (2014) and Vibe Hotel and Conference Centre Marysville (2014).
