The Citadines Connect business hotel brand will make its Australian debut in May 2019, taking over the footprint of swanky 1960's-themed Felix Hotel near Sydney Airport.
A new offshoot of the Citadines serviced residence brand, Citadines Connect business hotels “cater to frequent travellers who are constantly connected, offering a chic living experience in vibrant city destinations.”
Hallmarks of the Citadines Connect business hotels will include mobile keys, self check-in kiosks, ‘smart’ washing machines or laundromats, content streaming-enabled televisions and Google cloud printers.
Also in the mix: Grab & Go food and drink counters, meeting pods and 24/7 gymnasiums. Most Citadines Connect properties will lean towards offering studio rooms ranging from 18m² to 21m².
