Melbourne-based property developer BEKL has announced its appointment of IHG’s new upscale brand voco as the chosen operator of its new hotel.

Voco South Melbourne is scheduled to open in 2023.

The hotel, due to be built at the northern end of St Kilda Road on Dorcas Street, will offer guests a selection of 171 well-appointed rooms, designed around a ‘Me Time’ concept, along with sprawling restaurant and bar spaces, four meeting spaces and a gym.

“We pride ourselves on creating quality, innovative, long-standing spaces that place an emphasis on the human experience, so it was important to us that our partners share that same vision and passion for what we are trying to achieve,” said BEKL Managing Director, Katherine Liu.

The hotel will look to form part of a larger mixed-use project which, if given the green light, will comprise 36 apartments and 2,293 square metres of office space.
