TUNE Hotels is breaking into the Australian market with the early opening of Tune Hotel Melbourne on October 21, two weeks ahead of schedule.
The 225-key Tune Hotel Melbourne is located on Swanston Street, Carlton. Just next to the University of Melbourne, the hotel is also close to Lygon Street, Queen Victoria Market and minutes away from the city’s central business district.
It also features an indoor courtyard, a recreational lounge, a restaurant, a café/convenience store, luggage storage, a basement car park, a self-service launderette and computer kiosks.
Tune Hotel CEO, Mark Lankester, said: “We are looking forward to introducing (Tune Hotel’s pay-as-you-use) accommodation model to the Australian marketplace and know it will be as popular here as it is overseas.
“Our opening comes ahead of the big Melbourne events, from the Melbourne Cup to Beyoncé’s world tour, so guests can enjoy a stay in the city centre without having to spend a fortune on accommodation.”
Tune Hotel Melbourne marks the 33rd property for Tune Hotels.
The chain is now dangling promotional rates of A$50 (US$47) per night for stays between October 21 to 31. Bookings are open until October 30 and available for all room types, with rates inclusive of a complimentary Comfort Package comprising towel rental, toiletries, high-speed wireless Internet and Foxtel ready TV entertainment.
