The rise of ‘hotel-style’ living in the River City

Brisbane is evolving. There is no question of that. From stylish boutiques, trendy laneways and new dining precincts to new bridges, transport systems and even new suburbs — the Sunshine State’s capital is growing all the time. As we have discussed before, some of the expansion comes from the rise in interstate migration — Australians from other states flocking to Queensland for the excellent weather, expanding job opportunities and affordable property prices. With these newcomers seems to follow a new wave of residential developments, and the latest offering is completely changing the game.

Whether people are moving here permanently or buying a holiday home, the Sunshine State is now home to a style of living that’s completely different to the simple four-walls of eras gone by. Catering to a whole new demographic of buyers, 2018 has seen the rise of ‘hotel-style’ living and looking to the future, there’s no sign of this trend slowing.

Living in a hotel (but without the other hotel guests) is kind of like a dream come true for most people. From the outstanding level of luxury to faultless customer service and facilities that bring the papering to you, hotel life definitely has its perks. Integrating that feeling into new developments in Brisbane (where permanent residents will be able to enjoy ‘hotel-style’ living) is key to Brisbane’s success in the current property market.

They are bringing these world-renowned hotel-style facilities to the permanent residents of this brand-new development. The best part? No check-out required.
