“We are delighted to partner with Pacifica Ausglobal Busselton Pty Ltd to bring our award-winning focused service brand Hilton Garden Inn to Busselton, Western Australia,” said Guy Phillips, Senior Vice President, Development, Asia and Australasia, Hilton.

The hotel will be built in the centre of Busselton’s 38-hectare commercial, cultural and public space foreshore precinct, taking advantage of the city of Busselton’s strategic investment in the area including a new Entertainment, Arts and Culture Hub. The hotel will complement the increase in domestic and international airport traffic expected from upgrades to Busselton Margaret River Airport currently underway.
