The Western Australian Government will invest $110 million to help build a new entertainment precinct and hotel adjacent to Perth Arena.

Global hotel group Minor International PCL have been selected to develop two lots within the Perth City Link project.

The new development will see the debut of Minor’s upscale AVANI brand in Perth and includes a 250-room 4.5-star hotel and more than 200 one and two bedroom serviced apartments, as well as a range of hospitality and leisure uses.

Minister Day said a hotel and tourist accommodation adjacent to the Perth Arena was the perfect fit, stating "the hotel's convenient location will also entice international performers and tourists."

“Perth City Link is rapidly changing our city through high quality transport infrastructure, a sports and entertainment venue, and new commercial and retail offerings.

“Minor Group’s investment will bring accommodation options to the project as well as new food and beverage brands and a public plaza featuring art, alfresco dining and open lawn and paved areas for leisure and recreation.

“Together with Yagan Square, the community meeting space between the arms of the Horseshoe Bridge, and Kings Square, Perth City Link is transforming the way we interact with our city.”

Subject to development approvals, construction is expected to start in late 2016.
