EVT will commence management of Rydges Ringwood, effective 1 August, after it rebrands from Sebel Ringwood. Located in the vibrant and fast-growing suburb of Ringwood, this high-quality property, constructed in 2021, marks a welcomed addition to EVT’s growing portfolio of hospitality venues, and the sixth EVT hotel in Melbourne.
The decision to award EVT the management contract was influenced by EVT’s local expertise and operational capabilities. EVT’s decision-making teams in Melbourne and Sydney will ensure agile responsiveness to market dynamics, fostering strong partnerships like the one with Serene Capital, the property's owner.
Norman Arundel, Director of EVT Hotels and Resorts, expressed enthusiasm about the new venture: "We are thrilled to welcome Rydges Ringwood into our portfolio. The competitive selection process highlighted EVT’s commitment to quality management practices and exceptional guest experiences. This management contract aligns with our strategy to enhance the Rydges brand presence and reinforces our commitment to offering quality accommodation to our guests.
"We are excited to work with Serene Capital, a relationship that prioritises trust and alignment," noted Arundel. "This management agreement represents a strategic alignment of interests, bolstered by EVT’s strong distribution networks and loyalty programs. We are eager to leverage these strengths to drive the success of Rydges Ringwood and explore future opportunities with Serene Capital."
Glen Boultwood, CEO and Co-Founder, Serene Capital added, “Serene Capital is delighted to partner with EVT to add what will be known as Rydges Ringwood. The property is by far the best quality hotel in Ringwood and will withstand the test of time.”
The opening of Rydges Ringwood represents EVT’s strategic commitment to expand the Rydges portfolio and its ‘refreshingly local’ proposition with properties that deliver memorable guest experiences for both leisure and business travellers alike.
