The Hotels, Tourism and Leisure team at marshalls+dent+wilmoth has advised the ErdiGroup on the rebuild of the Swanston Hotel Grand Mercure and its rebrand to Accor’s fastest growing upscale brand in the Asia Pacific – the Pullman brand.

The rebuild involved extensive renovations to the existing building which has delivered a striking façade, re-designed 5 star guest rooms, a unique designer lobby, a brand-new restaurant and an exclusive club lounge with breathtaking views overlooking the city. The renovations occurred over a 20 month, staged process and involved four different interior designers – Rothelowman, STUDIO MAC, interiors by Foster and P49.

The new Pullman Melbourne on Swanston is a first for the Melbourne CBD and through the ErdiGroup team’s management, raises the bar for all hotel products in the city by delivering a truly unique product to its guests.
