La Vie Hotels & Resorts has announced the acquisition of management rights for the former Rydges Norwest in Sydney’s Hills District business and residential area.
The property has been rebranded Visy Dior Hotels International and offers 132 rooms, large function spaces, a restaurant, swimming pool and fitness centre.
During the next 18 months, the hotel will undergo a $18 million transformation, including redesign of guestrooms and events facilities, the introduction of elevated dining experiences, and a new grand ballroom with capacity for 880 guests.
“The La Vie team welcomes the addition of Visy Dior to our growing portfolio of hotels and resorts,” says Marcus Hanna, chief operating officer at La Vie Hotels & Resorts.
“The Hills region is one of Sydney’s most dynamic business and lifestyle hubs.
“This project reflects our mission to deliver elevated guest experiences, and we are confident Visy Dior will redefine hospitality standards in the area.”
Giovannino JF Navarra, co-owner of Visy Dior Hotels International, says the acquisition of the northwest Sydney property marks a significant step forward for the company.
“This partnership with La Vie Hotels & Resorts represents a defining moment in the evolution of the Visy Dior brand,” he says.
“La Vie’s operational expertise and proven leadership in hotel management aligns with our vision to create a flagship destination that embodies sophistication, innovation and people-first luxury.”
