Overview
Sydney and Brisbane have a new player in the boutique hotel scene with the launch of Ode Hotels — a curated collection of unique properties created by EVT Hotels & Resorts in collaboration with Invictus Developments.
The new brand includes three iconic hotels: the stylish, pooch-friendly The Old Clare Hotel in Chippendale, Sydney, cityside mainstay Harbour Rocks Hotel in The Rocks, Sydney and the singularly chic The Inchcolm in Spring Hill, Brisbane.
The Old Clare Hotel
Each of these heritage-rich properties has been thoughtfully designed to blend history with contemporary luxury, reflecting Ode Hotels' ethos of authenticity and charm.
The Old Clare Hotel, a former brewery turned cultural hotspot, offers a distinct architectural experience in the heart of industrial suburb Chippendale — and boasts numerous eateries and bars, including Longshore, TOCH bar, Clare Bar and The Rooftop pool bar. The Harbour Rocks Hotel brings a modern twist to Sydney's historical district of The Rocks while also showcasing an international bend with its on-site restaurants and bar, including Tayim, Creperie Suzette and Eric's Bar and Garden Terrace. The Inchcolm in Brisbane showcases neo-Georgian design, with thoughtful nods to its past as a physician's residence sprinkled throughout the hotel and its dark academia-designed on-site bar and restaurant.
Inchcolm Hotel
"Ode Hotels brings together three exquisite properties, each with its own unique character, under a brand that celebrates authenticity and individuality," said Callum Kennedy, Group General Manager of EVT Hotels & Resorts. "These hotels are some of Australia's finest, and we're excited to share the Ode brand with travellers seeking something beyond the ordinary."
The concept behind Ode Hotels is to elevate the boutique hotel experience in Australia, offering spaces rich in history while delivering modern, personalised hospitality. Plans don't stop with these three hotels, as the group has designs to expand its offerings in the coming years.
