The Gold Coast has welcomed a brand new luxury destination, with The Langham hotel officially opening its doors to the public on Thursday.
Hundreds of local business and tourism leaders attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the beachfront property this morning, before getting a sneak peek through the opulent 5-star hotel.
Located in the central and tallest of the three Jewel towers, The Langham features a modern coastal palette throughout, with 339-rooms and suites boasting breathtaking ocean or hinterland views.
The luxury extends to the hotel’s facilities, with two swimming pools, a health club, and a wide range of exquisite dining options, including Palm Court – home of the iconic Langham Afternoon Tea, Akoya – a refined-casual, all-day dining destination, 26 & Sunny – a casual, beachside dining option with coffee, juice and a range of deli sandwiches, and Lobby Bar – the perfect spot for bubbly, wine and cocktails.
This spring, The Langham will introduce T’ang Court – sister venue to the internationally renowned Michelin-starred restaurants, Coral Moon – an open-air destination bar and Chuan Spa – a holistic wellness concept which embraces the centuries-old healing philosophies of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
