Slated to open in Q4 2023, the hotel is adjoined to the new 1,250 sq m Western Sydney Conference Centre (WSCC), which itself remains on track to open in the same quarter, and will host a range of onsite facilities, including a restaurant and bar with private dining rooms, along with a ground-floor café.
Pullman Sydney Penrith will service the WSCC, which will host trade shows, exhibitions, seated functions for up to 1,000 people, along with other major events.
Superb facilities
Accor Pacific CEO, Sarah Derry, said: “We are thrilled to partner with the Panthers Group to deliver Pullman Sydney Penrith. Western Sydney is widely renowned as the engine room of Sydney and we are incredibly proud of our thriving hotels and incredible teams here.
“Pullman Sydney Penrith will offer leisure and business travellers memorable guest experiences and superb facilities and, once open, this hotel will quickly become the leading accommodation choice in Penrith. Sport plays a crucial role in Australian culture and, by tourism and sporting organisations working together, our guests have the ability to enjoy incredible experiences and service.”
Event and tourism destination
