Business Events Victoria is excited to share that Crowne Plaza Geelong will open its doors on Friday 23 January 2026, offering a brand-new premium hotel experience on the Geelong waterfront.
The hotel features 200 rooms and suites, versatile meeting and event spaces with stunning bay views, a ground-floor café, level 1 restaurant and bar, a Skybar on the 10th floor, gym, and indoor heated pool. Half the rooms feature waterfront views, while the rest overlook the city skyline, with accessible rooms available.
Opening just in time for major events in Geelong, including the Festival of Sails, Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race, and IRONMAN 70.3, Crowne Plaza Geelong will also complement the Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre, opening in July 2026. This makes it an ideal destination for conferences, meetings, and corporate events in the region.
The hotel promises a new era of premium accommodation and business event facilities, showcasing the best of Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, and surrounding regions
