Burgess Rawson, in partnership with ResortBrokers, is excited to exclusively offer for sale via International Expressions of Interest a unique hotel asset in the nation's capital. The Alpha Hotel & Apartments is a 100-room property situated in the scenic Tuggeranong Valley.
Rarely does a Canberra Hotel or offering of this nature come up for sale as the market is extremely tightly held. Built in 2007 and formerly operating as the Country Comfort Motel, the hotel is now leased to Alpha Hotel for the next 2.5 years under a 15-year lease. However, it is also being offered with vacant possession, providing flexibility for owner-operators or investors alike. Located just a 15-20 minute drive from major events via the Parkway, the property offers an affordable and convenient option for visitors to the region, making it a promising investment with long-term potential.
The property features a diverse selection of 100 meticulously designed guest rooms, suites, and fully equipped apartments, each boasting high-quality furnishings and warm interiors for a comfortable, relaxing stay. Large windows invite natural light and fresh air, with select rooms offering stunning views of the Brindabella Ranges. Some rooms feature private balconies or terraces, providing an ideal retreat for guests looking to unwind.
Catering to various guest needs, the hotel offers accessible rooms, family-friendly options, and group accommodations, ensuring comfort for all types of travellers, whether for business or leisure. On-site amenities include a sun-drenched alfresco terrace, a well-equipped gym and sauna, and a stylish guest lounge with a fireplace and bar. Premium services such as high-speed Wi-Fi, on-site parking, and a guest laundry further enhance the guest experience. The property also includes a commercial kitchen, cool room/freezer, dry store, and dedicated preparation areas, ideal for large-scale catering and events.
Designed to accommodate both corporate events and private functions, the hotel offers flexible conference and event spaces, ensuring a steady flow of business and diverse revenue streams. The hotel's 30kW solar energy system underscores its commitment to sustainability, offering guests an eco-friendly experience.
