Appointment of John Lee to Metro Hotels

Metro Hotels has appointed John Lee as Acquisition and Development Manager, signalling the long-established chain is on the expansion trail.

John has previously worked in hotel development and property consulting and was the developer who put together the Metro Hotel Entertainment Centre Sydney. He sold the development prior to construction. Metro Hotels opened the property and ran it successfully for a number of years prior to it being sold. John has also worked in stockbroking with firms such as Ord Minnett and Bain and Company.

John McEvoy, Chairman of Metro Hotels, said the appointment of John Lee is the first step in a plan to reinvigorate the group’s expansion platform. “Metro Hotels has been around for almost 40 years and we need to be extending our presence in Australia and beyond” he said. 

“We are looking for development opportunities as well as acquisitions, and in particular to securing management agreements and leases on existing hotels and properties. We have investors willing to buy properties and to fund the development of new ones” he added. Later this year the company will add to its portfolio a new 53-room hotel in the Perth market.

Metro Hotels is the public face of Transmetro Corporation, an Australian owned public company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. The Group currently provides a national accommodation network of properties with over 1,000 rooms in key locations and major cities across Australia

Metro Hotels Makes Travelling With Your Pooch a Whole Lot Easier

Dog lovers who don’t like to leave their furry friends behind when they travel interstate, will love a new service offered by Metro Hotels whereby dog owners can book accommodation for their pooch at the same time as booking accommodation for themselves.

Metro Hotels has teamed with FindADogMinder.com.au, offering guests who book accommodation at a Metro property in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane, the opportunity to connect with a pet-sitter who can mind their dog in a caring home environment.

FindADogMinder.com.au is a leading dog boarding network connecting dog owners with dedicated dog lovers who mind pets in their own home.

Metro Hotels is confident dog-owners will be equally comfortable staying in one of its seven properties in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.  Metro Hotels is renowned for providing comfortable and spacious accommodation for people looking for a ‘home away from home’ in close proximity to that city’s attractions.

Following an online promotion conducted by Metro Hotels last month to name its new canine mascot, Metro Max was selected as the winning name from many entries, and will be used in future Metro Hotels’ advertising, marketing and merchandising.

To book yourself and your pet into accommodation, contact Jessica Lisica at Metro Hotels on (02) 9288 0182 or email jlisica@metrohg.com.

Timely Break for Lucky Winners

Exhausted from battling the recent fires: Seniors Lifestyle Competition winners Deb and Max Baigent from King Creek are delighted with their prize of a trip for two to Sydney

AFTER months of battling intense bush fires, one local volunteer will get a little respite he so well and truly deserves.

Captain of the King Creek Rural Fire Service Max Baigent and his wife Deb have been the lucky winners of the Senior Lifestyle Metro Sydney Escape competition.

The timing, the thankful and humble couple said, could not have been better.

Mr Baigent arrived home from the Harrington fires the day his wife heard the news.

"It's been a raging battle down there," he said. "We had a week of battling intense fires and I got back around midnight."

Utterly exhausted, the 57-year-old had mentioned earlier that he needed a holiday.

At first, his wife's words simply didn't register when she said they would be spending two nights in Sydney at the Metro Apartments on Darling Harbour.

"We're just so thankful to Senior Lifestyle for running this competition," he said. "All firies have just had a run of it the past five months, but all the crews have been doing such a fantastic job."

Her work with the Bundaleer Care Service also keeps Mrs Baigent on her feet. "You get so busy that you just don't take the time to rest," she said. "It makes it a bit different when you win something."

The 55-year-old said it would be nice to see her husband taking a break.

"It's an exhausting task they do, they get tired and weary but they all do it because they love it," she said. "It's their way of giving back to the community."

From the sleepy hollow of King Creek, to the hustle and bustle of the big smoke - the views over Darling Harbour will be a big change for the King Creek couple. "It's going to be very different, but it's going to be fantastic to have a bit of time to relax," Mr Baigent said.

Metro Hotels Appoints New BDM for Queensland & NT

Metro Hotels has appointed Tony Coates to the role of Business Development Manager for Queensland and Northern Territory.

In this role Tony is responsible for maintaining and growing the domestic leisure, corporate and government business for Metro Hospitality Group’s properties in Brisbane, Ipswich, Gladstone and Northern Territory.

The position reports to Metro Hotel’s Director of Sales & Marketing, Lynda King, who today welcomed Mr Coates appointment.

“Tony brings to this role the commercial acumen and marketing experience necessary to recognise and capitalise on potential sales opportunities and build strong business relationships in both domestic and international markets”, Ms King said.  

“Tony’s proven background in maintaining and growing strategic business relationships with domestic wholesalers and key retail accounts will be instrumental in helping us grow our market share in Queensland and Northern Territory,” Lynda said.  

Prior to taking up this position, Tony was Regional Sales Manager for Virgin Blue Airlines; National Retail and Wholesale Manager of Queensland Rail/Travel Train Holidays; Director of Sales at Story Bridge Adventure Climb; and Queensland Sales Manager for Dreamworld Gold Coast.

Demand from corporate travellers drives Metro’s Expansion in Gladstone

Metro Hotels has expanded and diversified its holdings in Gladstone, Queensland this year to meet the growing demand from corporate travellers for more choice and flexibility in apartment accommodation in Gladstone.

Gladstone is Queensland’s largest multi-commodity port, the fifth largest multi-commodity port in Australia and the world’s fourth largest coal exporting terminal.  It is also home to an aluminium refinery and smelter, cement manufacturing, mines, explosives and chemical plant, three LNG plants, shale oil refinery and an oil recycling plant, all of which have fuelled demand for more flexible and affordable apartment accommodation in the city.

In the brand new 97-unit G60 development, Metro Hotels is managing 18 two-bedroom apartments and one three-bedroom apartment.  Its existing Gladstone property, Metro Hotels & Apartments has 51 one-bedroom apartments.

According to Property Manager, David Robinson, approximately 90 percent of the property’s occupancy is corporate-based, flying in and out from Gladstone Airport, with the majority of large business and government workers staying for two to three days.

“We are broadening and diversifying our holdings in Gladstone to give more choice and more flexibility to our clients, at a more affordable price,” Mr Robinson said.

“It is difficult to find apartment accommodation in Gladstone for short stays.  Our new offering suits the corporate sector as it offers a more affordable option for clients who can now share a two-bedroom apartment for both short and long term stays.

“Some of our regular corporate clients visit Gladstone for up to three or four months.  It will be more cost-effective for them to share a two bedroom apartment with another corporate than to book into a one-bedroom apartment for that period.

Mr Robinson said his corporate clients comment on the convenience of self catering and the spacious rooms, as the reason they choose an apartment over other accommodation choices.  Each apartment is equipped with a full-sized kitchen, washing machine, dryer, separate bedroom and full size balcony.

From late November through to January each year there is an increase in occupancy as the relocation of staff associated with government and large industry occurs.

 

G60 Apartments Gladstone

Metro Hotel & Apartments Gladstone and nearby Apartments G60 are located in the heart of the Gladstone CBD, close to retail shops, restaurants and the entertainment precinct.  Guests have access to all the facilities of Metro Hotel & Apartments Gladstone, including swimming pool and restaurant.
