Quest to Open Its 126th Serviced Apartment Property in Central Queensland

Quest Serviced Apartments plans to open its 126th serviced apartment property next month in Gladstone, Central Queensland.

The new serviced apartment property at 39-43 Bramston Street, Gladstone, will offer 82 units that range from studio, one, two, and three bedrooms with self catering facilities and the latest in technology and comforts. The serviced apartments are equipped with high speed Broadband Internet access, iPod docks, flat screen LCD televisions, and Austar connection. The property offers complimentary car parking onsite, a swimming pool, and barbeque area.

Additionally there will be a host of breakfast options, a pantry shopping service, chargeback at a selection of local restaurants, and business administration services. For business clients seeking to hold a conference or seminar, the conferencing facilities are capable of catering up to 50 clients.

The new serviced apartment complex is located within close proximity to the Gladstone airport, within 600 meters of the Central Business District of Gladstone, and 1.9 kilometers from the Marina. It is expected that the population in Gladstone will double by the year 2026 with the city situated at the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. Additionally, the rapid growth of surrounding regions in north-east Australia can account for the sound management at all levels by government and industry. Quest has been keeping up with the growth in these areas where there is a constant demand for high-quality and contemporary serviced apartment accommodation options.

Quest Gladstone serviced apartments are also located in an ideal position for travelers seeking access to the Gladstone Hospital, Entertainment and Aquatic Centers, Central Queensland University, and the multi-purpose sports complex. Move and Stay at www.moveandstay.com.au will have additional information on accommodations at Quest properties.

Quest chooses serviced apartment property locations in the Central Business Districts, metropolitan and regional precincts, due to their close proximity to business centers, restaurants and shopping, as well as additional conveniences, to enable guests to be able to conduct their business and enjoy lifestyle options without having to travel long distances.

The opening of Quest Gladstone next month will follow recent openings in the Sydney Central Business District and Potts Point, Albury, Ipswich and Chermside, Ivanhoe and Glen Waverley. Since 1988, Quest has created a network of 120 strategically-located serviced apartment complexes.

Quest Launches Serviced Apartments in New Plymouth

Quest, a major serviced apartment provider in Australia, recently launched new serviced apartments in New Plymouth, New Zealand.

The new 40-unit serviced apartment complex is located in New Plymouth’s landmark Post Office Building on Currie Street. Renovations in the building began in February of this year and some of the small jobs are in the process of being completed.

Quest New Plymouth serviced apartments are being managed by new franchise owner, Tony Boswell and his wife Michelle. They have entered the accommodation business after selling two successful bowling alleys in Wellington and twenty of the units have already been booked.

It is expected that corporate clients will account for 70 percent of the bookings in the Quest New Plymouth serviced apartment complex. Tony Boswell predicts that the rest of the units will not be hard to fill due to the fact that the new serviced apartment complex is one of very few in the area and the economy in New Plymouth appears to be recession proof.

Quest currently operates more than 120 serviced apartment complexes throughout Australia and Fiji with 27 facilities located in New Zealand. Quest has been operating serviced apartment properties in Australia for over twenty years and has become Australia’s largest and most successful operator in the serviced apartment industry.

The company currently has plans underway to open seven new properties in 2009. The new serviced apartment properties include Quest Singleton in New South Wales, Quest Gladstone and Quest Mackay in Queensland, Quest Mawson Lakes in Southern Australia, Quest Shepparton in Victoria and Quest Carlaw Park and Quest Napier in New Zealand. The new Quest serviced apartment properties will be offering introductory rates and special opening deals.

Quest New Plymouth serviced apartments are currently receiving tenants and the purchase by franchise owner Tony Boswell came as a result of looking into opportunities in Wellington. Due to the previous award winning properties established under the Quest brand, the Quest New Plymouth property will practically run itself.
