The Tasman, Luxury Collection - Hobart, Tasmania [Master Thread]
I did a search but didn't see anything re: this. Marriott press release today.
http://news.marriott.com/2017/11/lux...otel-tasmania/
"The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts today announced it will debut the brand’s first-ever hotel in Tasmania in late 2018, following a full-scale renovation. Owned by Trawalla Group Parliament Square Hotel Operator Pty Ltd., The Tasman, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Hobart will reside in repurposed heritage buildings in Parliament Square, a new design-led, urban development that is set to revitalize the neighborhood, uniting the city’s unique past with its contemporary culture."
Cheers.

Interesting. The hotel has been already listed on spg.com but was removed some time ago.
Looks like it's back now:

Thanks for posting this, Sharon. Tasmania has long been on our bucket list. Good to know there will be a nice Starwood/Marriott property there.

This is a complicated project: a heritage site and structure dating to 1847, but with some pretty charmless deco facade add-on. I’m sure the finished building will be great; but it’s never simple dealing with planning issues in that precinct.
This is one of 3 major additions for Hobart. Crowne Plaza and Hyatt will also open this year ( they too experienced delays). They will join the Henry Jones Art Hotel and the Islington at the top of the market.

Some parts of the project will rely on interstate firms and with the closure of the state border could delay fit out further.
