In recent years, the Gold Coast has attracted a number of world-class hotels and resorts to its shores, with some pretty impressive names in the pipeline including The Ritz-Carlton and St. Regis Hotels & Resorts. Perhaps one of the most exciting additions to the southern Gold Coast come 2025 will be Mondrian Gold Coast, which is currently under construction along The Esplanade.
Since opening its first property in Los Angeles in 1996, Mondrian has expanded to some of the world’s most exciting cultural destinations, including Singapore, Doha, Mexico City, Cannes, Bordeaux, Seoul, Hong Kong and Ibiza. In 2025, Mondrian will expand its footprint to include a flagship destination right here on the Gold Coast.
Set within a sculptural masterpiece envisioned by Australian architects Fraser & Partners, the hotel spans 24 incredible floors allowing for breathtaking views across the pine tree-framed beach. The sleek design of the 208 studios, suites and homes, including spectacular two- and three-bedroom Beach Houses and the hotel-crowning Sky House, has been conceived by award-winning Studio Carter and is informed by the textural and tonal interplay of the iconic location.
One of the highlights for locals will undoubtedly be the ground-floor restaurant, which was designed by multi-disciplinary architecture practice Alexander &Co to spill out onto a sun-dappled terrace. On the third floor will be an oceanfront restaurant and pool club.
“Australia has long been a strategic focus for Mondrian’s growth, and the Gold Coast was a focal point thanks to its phenomenal natural setting, rich cultural landscape, and vibrant social scene,” says Chadi Farhat, brand COO Mondrian Hotels & Residences.
“Over the last couple of years, we have seen a rising demand for lifestyle brands, where locals and international guests are looking for authentic, creative and immersive experiences – all the hallmarks of the Mondrian brand. It felt a natural choice to bring Mondrian to the Gold Coast and we believe it will resonate strongly with the local market and lend something entirely new to the hospitality space,” says Chadi.
Mondrian Gold Coast is set to open in 2025.
