Canberra’s Capital Executive Apartment Hotel has changed hands for the first time in 22 years in a complex deal that has involved a large-scale unit buy-out.
The sale to Madison Hotel Group will see the property undergo extensive refurbishment before relaunching under their new brand as Madison Suites Canberra.
The group, run by family business partners Brett Morgan and Beverley Clench, purchased the management rights to the 87-unit apartment hotel on Northbourne Avenue along with 36 freehold units, which the vendor had acquired over a number of years.
Negotiated by Resort Brokers Australia on behalf Stanbritt Pty Ltd, headed by long-time director and sole proprietor Jim Stanwell, the sale was handled jointly by broker Russell Rogers and managing director Ian Crooks.
Mr Rogers said the sale took almost 12 months to conclude as it hinged on Madison Hotel Group also seeking to buy the balance 51 units in the building from individual investor owners.
“In the end, they have independently secured 48 of the other units, which allowed their purchase from the proprietor to be finalised,” he said.
“So it was a very satisfying result, particularly as Canberra is one of Australia’s most tightly-held accommodation markets.”
Resort Brokers Australia declined to disclose the sale price.
Madison Hotel Group, which owns a number of properties in Canberra, Sydney and regional NSW, operates both short-term and permanent residential accommodation businesses.
They also own the Chifley Plaza Hotel in Townsville, North Queensland, which is now being refurbished for planned rebranding as Madison Plaza Townsville.
Resort Brokers’ Ian Crooks said the unusual “hybrid” Canberra sale would see the Capital Executive Apartment Hotel revert from a management rights operation to a more traditional hotel-style establishment under largely single ownership.
“It is a prime property on a large 2,040 square metre corner block in Canberra’s major tourism and accommodation precinct, five minutes’ walk to the CBD,” he said.
“It has been consistently recording occupancy rates over 80 per cent, and there is strong potential to further grow the business.
“The buyers are experienced operators who will usher in a new era for the property, with refurbishment starting immediately.”
Accommodation is a mix of studio apartments and one-bedroom spa suites, while facilities include a business centre, gym, sauna, two spa pools, 24-hour undercover security parking, and an onsite licensed restaurant (outside operator).

Canberra’s Capital Executive sells for first time in 22 years

A long-standing motel in Brisbane’s inner suburb of Hamilton has been sold through Savills for an undisclosed sum, although the transaction is believed to be around $2.5 million.
The Kingsford Riverside Inn at 114 Kingsford Smith Drive comprises 25 rooms, a manager’s residence, reception area and other utilities. The 3 Star rated motel is also conveniently located opposite a 24 hour service station.
The four-storey motel was built in 1957 and has been owned and operated for the past 17 years by a local Brisbane couple who are now heading for retirement. It was bought for $450,000 by Daniel and Jane Doyle, according to CoreLogic RP Data.
The freehold motel property is set on an area of 663 sqm. 
The sale to private Sydney-based buyer was brokered by Nic Simarro and Tim Packman of Savills. 
The new owners have promised an extensive refurbishment, according to The Courier Mail.
Simarro said the property attracted much buyer interest due to its prominent high-exposure location on Kingsford Smith Drive. It is close to the airport and Brisbane CBD.
“Given the location, substantial landholding and favourable zoning, the property provides excellent medium-term redevelopment potential,” Simarro said.
Packman said the riverside setting provides panoramic views of the Brisbane River.
He said the site is prime for repositioning as it is zoned ‘High Density Residential (Up to 8 Storeys)’ and provides an opportunity for future redevelopment, subject to Council approval. 
“The underlying land rich nature of the site presents great flexibility in future uses to capitalise on the high level of infrastructure and development activity in the surrounding area,” Packman said.

The Inland Oasis Motel in Queensland’s Mt Isa is back on the market with price expectations of $1.1 million after failing to sell at auction earlier.

All the rooms are ensuite and there is a bar and swimming pool as well. There is also a four-bedroom manager’s residence.
