PERTH, Australia
InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) opened InterContinental Perth City Centre, the brand’s sixth hotel in Australia. Nestled amidst “The King Street Precinct” with a charming heritage streetscape of theatres, cafes and luxe retailers, the new 240-room property is the latest global offering from InterContinental.
Designed by Woods Bagot with interiors by Chada, the 16-story InterContinental Perth City Centre combines distinctly West Australian details with global design and hospitality experiences.
Specially commissioned sculptures, paintings, bespoke ceramics and glass works by renowned WA artists feature together with a focus on regional food producers, growers, brewers and vignerons throughout the hotel's stylish line up of restaurants and bars to proudly fly a local flag.
Meanwhile, an elegant residential feel to the classic rooms, studios and penthouse in understated taupe, olive and bronze hues—all with views over Perth's cityscape—combined with a dedicated Club InterContinental ramp up the worldly sophistication factor. Club InterContinental guests have the exclusive benefit of retreating to the top floor, a sweeping space offering a la carte breakfast, all day refreshments and afternoon high tea.
Ascua, the hotel’s moody ground floor restaurant, is a dramatic new take on the classic grill. It is set to open Nov. 1, 2017. Spanish for “ember,” a striking open kitchen will be the focal point for showcasing the preparation of aged beef and meats, while intimate banquette seating will also be available.
The Gallery Meeting Suites completes the hotel offer, providing a reimagined environment for business gatherings, seminars and more intimate events in ways not seen before in Perth thanks to a dedicated floor of four light filled suites, a central lounge area, private al fresco terraces and display kitchen.
Each meeting suite has access to The Chef's Pantry, a stylish central lounge always stocked with refreshments for use any time during their function, while a spacious outdoor terrace complete with a bar, BBQ and cooking station provides sophisticated al fresco hospitality possibilities for event planners.
