In response to high accommodation demand throughout the calendar year the owners of the Victoria Hotel commissioned the development of a new 30 bedroom three storey accommodation block on a site adjacent to their current operation. The new facility will be rated as 4 star and complement their existing 42 bedroom hotel and hospitality business.

A central canopy will connect the new building to the old. Hotel owner and manager Leo Pan said the new building would open by the end of October 2016. Rooms would include studios, two-bedroom apartments and an executive suite, with spa, large lounge and high-quality finish. The hotel would also house a gymnasium, he said.

Signal has led the project through the concept design, detailed design, building consent, procurement and construction stages. The building was completed in October 2016.
