Leading innovator in the boutique hotel and micro-apartment space, the Veriu Group was delighted to open its latest property, Punthill Caroline Springs, in the heart of Melbourne’s rapidly expanding western corridor earlier this month.

Built in partnership with Geopec Pty Ltd, the state-of-the-art 80-apartment hotel features a mix of modern studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, designed to accommodate solo and group travel, for business or leisure.

Combining fully self-catering apartments – each one including a fully-equipped kitchen, balcony, desk and fast, high-quality internet, along with comprehensive conference and meeting facilities, secure on-site parking, gym and guest laundry, Punthill Caroline Springs delivers the ease and accessibility of the office as well as all the comforts of home.

The new hotel is also located right next door to the Springlake retail precinct, offering the convenience of both an IGA supermarket and a Dan Murphy’s store, along with a variety of specialty retailers, restaurants and cafés including several al fresco dining options located along the lakeside promenade.

Even better, a coveted location handily located just off the Western Highway ensures Punthill Caroline Springs is the closest accommodation on offer to many nearby business parks. Plus, it’s only a short drive to both Melbourne Airport and the CBD, making it the perfect base for business travellers commuting to and from Melbourne.

The opening of Punthill Caroline Springs increases the Group’s collection of properties under the trusted Punthill Apartment Hotels brand to 12 and boosts its portfolio to over 1,450 rooms and apartments operating or in development across 23 sites under the combined Veriu Hotels & Suites and Punthill Apartment Hotels brands.

Commenting on the announcement, Veriu Group CEO Zed Sanjana says the opening is a welcome development, following what has been a challenging 14 months.

“We’re extremely pleased to be adding Punthill Caroline Springs to our existing portfolio, with the hotel specifically situated to take advantage of a vast key corporate catchment area in Melbourne’s West, currently quite underserviced in terms of quality corporate accommodation. Like all properties in our group, it’s ideally positioned to be able to provide both corporate and leisure guests with premium accommodation in an accessible and convenient location”.

“Just as importantly”, he adds, “Punthill Caroline Springs significantly raises the bar in comparison to other properties in our existing portfolio, embodying a new generation of Punthill Apartment Hotels and sets the tone for many more to come”.
