Boutique hotel group, Ovolo Hotels has continued its expansion in Australia, taking over the management of Canberra’s Hotel Hotel (yes, that’s its name).
Sellers of Hotel Hotel and its hatted Monster Kitchen and Bar are property developer and creative production house Molonglo Group.
The hotel will be run by Ovolo Hotel Group with the change in management taking effect from March 1.
Ovolo now runs four hotels and a serviced apartment in Hong Kong, and five hotels across Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.
Ovolo has also recently launched a new brand, Mojo Nomad, in Aberdeen Harbour Hong Kong, described as “a cohabitation concept for global nomads that combines travel, lifestyle and community at its core”. The brand will be entering the Australian market in the near future.
“Ovolo has been well received in Australia and we are proud to bring our signature concept to the Australian capital,” said Girish Jhunjhnuwala, CEO of Ovolo Group.
Nectar Efkarpidis, director of Molonglo Group said Hotel Hotel was “the physical manifestation of ideas that we had been exploring for several years - about architecture, design and furniture, and how they can help us to evolve and expand Canberra’s civic sense of itself with others”.
