HOTEL101 Global Holdings Corp., a subsidiary of DoubleDragon Corp., signed on Tuesday, January 20, definitive binding agreements for the development of a 766-room Hotel101 in the heart of Melbourne Central Business District at 540 Flinders Lane in Melbourne, Australia.
This latest overseas expansion of Hotel101, a leading asset-light, prop-tech hospitality platform pioneering a global standardized condotel business model listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, marks a significant milestone in the company’s global growth strategy, bringing its novel business model to one of Australia’s most vibrant and dynamic cities.
Hotel101-Melbourne is expected to be completed in 2029. Once finished, it is set to be the largest hotel in Melbourne by room count and expected to generate approximately AU$323.6 million (around P12.6 billion) in sales revenue forming part of Hotel101 Global’s global expansion strategy.
It would also offer 4-star amenities at affordable prices, including ample meeting spaces and a conference center tailored for business events.

Moreover, the iconic Flinders Lane, Hotel101-Melbourne’s location, is a prime area renowned for its laneways, street art, boutique shopping, world-class dining, and proximity to major attractions such as Federation Square, Flinders Street Station, the Yarra River, and Southbank entertainment precinct. This strategic site positions the property as an ideal hub for leisure and business travelers seeking seamless access to Melbourne’s cultural, commercial, and sporting hubs, and will complement the existing premium hotel offerings in the CBD./PN
