Oaks on William to open in Melbourne
Oaks Hotels & Resorts has announced its brand new Melbourne property, Oaks on William, is on track to be completed by August 2013, taking the company's Victorian property portfolio to a total of four.
General manager of sales for Oaks Hotels & Resorts Daniel Csortan said the opening of a fourth Melbourne property is a monumental development in the company's planned local and international expansion, under the direction of Bangkok-based owner Minor Hotel Group.

"Melbourne is a niche market for Oaks Hotels & Resorts, capitalising on the steady number of corporate and leisure travellers it attracts. Oaks on William is complementary to our three other CBD properties and we look forward to welcoming our loyal following of travellers as well as a new wave of visitors to this 4.5 star property.
"Oaks on William not only signifies a growing Australian presence for Oaks Hotels & Resorts but also the continuation of a successful year of business, with further plans for significant property upgrades and openings in key markets on the agenda," he said.
Located on one of the city's most vibrant streets, plans for the 4.5 star property includes 220 stylishly-appointed studio apartments, all self-contained with modern kitchenettes and boasting private balconies with scenic city views, air conditioning, technological appliances and Wi-Fi access.
Set to exude a contemporary Melbourne style, Oaks on William will also feature a number of quality leisure conveniences including lobby café and bar, gymnasium, onsite car parking, 24-hour reception, babysitting and business facilities.
The property's central CBD position will render it ideal for both business and leisure travellers who appreciate the affordable quality Oaks Hotels & Resorts is renowned for. With an impressive selection of restaurants, cafes and shopping options on its doorstep and some of Melbourne's most popular attractions just minutes away – namely Crown Casino, Queen Victoria Market and sporting icons Etihad Stadium and the Melbourne Cricket Ground – Oaks on William will be the perfect accommodation choice for short and longer stays.
Oaks Hotels & Resorts currently offers travellers the choice of three Melbourne city properties: Oaks on Collins, Oaks on Market and Oaks on Lonsdale, as well as an additional 36 resorts and hotels across Australia, New Zealand, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates.
