Schwartz Family Company has acquired Leura Gardens Resort in New South Wales’ Blue Mountains region for AU$25 million from the Elanor Hotel Accommodation Fund.
As the 15th hotel in the Schwartz network, Leura Gardens Resort joins the company’s award-winning Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains and Leura Golf Club, all within a few minutes’ drive of each other, and strengthens its position as a premier leisure and conference provider in the region.
“The Blue Mountains is Sydney’s holiday playground and one of the most popular destinations for weddings, retreats, leisure groups, conferences and events, and by bringing these three venues together, we can offer a complete tourism solution,” said Schwartz Family Company Director, Dr Jerry Schwartz.
“Leura Gardens Resort’s 3.5-star accommodation will complement the 4.5-star accommodation at the Fairmont, while we can also offer multiple different venues for functions along with the renowned outdoor activities that the Blue Mountains is famous for.”
The recently refurbished resort includes a 92-room hotel set on 4.5 acres of landscaped gardens. The accommodation offering includes a choice of studio, family, and self-contained apartments, while recreational facilities include a solar-heated outdoor swimming pool, fitness room, guest lounge, and on-site restaurant, with Leura Golf Course across the road.
With multiple conference and events spaces, the Olive Tree Restaurant, and its expansive grounds, the venue is popular for weddings, functions and corporate retreats.
Under Schwartz’s ownership, the hotel will operate in conjunction with Fairmont Resort and Leura Golf Course to offer one of the most comprehensive conference and event venues in regional New South Wales.
The acquisition coincides with the announcement that the NSW Blues rugby team will establish a training base in the Blue Mountains, using the facilities at both the Fairmont and Leura Gardens.
