SYDNEY - BWH Hotel Group and property developer iHHL have signed to develop the first Aiden by Best Western property in Australasia.
We're bringing a touch of Parisian-style hospitality and class to Darling Harbour, [which] has developed from its historical roots as wharves and industrial warehouses to become a vibrant residential, commercial and entertainment hub.– Nicolas Chen
Aiden by Best Western @ Darling Harbour - opening in late 2020 – will be an 88-room, eight storey property which will include a café, bar and retail shop on the ground floor.
“Where better to open our first Aiden in Australasia than in the centre of Sydney's iconic leisure precinct, Darling Harbour,” said BWH Hotel Group Australasia managing director Graham Perry.
Aiden by Best Western @ Darling Harbour will be a refurbished 1930s art deco building located on the western side of Darling Harbour, directly opposite the pedestrian Pyrmont Bridge and close to the entrance of the Harbourside shopping complex.
iHHL's Nicolas Chen said, “We're bringing a touch of Parisian-style hospitality and class to Darling Harbour, [which] has developed from its historical roots as wharves and industrial warehouses to become a vibrant residential, commercial and entertainment hub.
“We selected the location for our development due to its ideal positioning, close to world class attractions including the Australian National Maritime Museum, the International Convention Centre (ICC), the Sydney Fish Market, Cockle Bay Wharf, King Street Wharf and Barangaroo.”
