Adelaide hotel targets events

THE former Channel Nine studios in Adelaide are set to be redeveloped into a $40m five-star hotel, with ambitions of attracting a range of convention delegates when completed.

Majestic Group purchased the site in 2015, with the company’s owner John Culshaw telling The Advertiser that the redevelopment of the Adelaide Convention Centre was attracting more delegates to the city.

“I think there is a major opportunity because there is a lack of good, new hotels in Adelaide,” he said.

The site is 1.7km from the Adelaide Convention Centre.
