Dankav unveils Lennons, a 104-room hotel precinct at Mermaid Beach

The outlet says the project is named after the original Lennons Hotel and draws on 1960s Gold Coast holiday culture. Four guiding ideas are listed: a lasting design, a relaxed beachside feel, a gathering place aimed at locals, and a landscaped retreat.

Apartments.com.au says Lennons combines a 104-room boutique hotel, restaurants, bars, retail and wellness facilities, with apartments above. The article does not name a hotel operator.

The numbers

The article states these figures:

• Hotel: 104 rooms and suites.
• Apartments: 62 one, two and three-bedroom apartments, branded The Alfred Residences.
• Site: 4,095 sqm, with frontages to Gold Coast Highway, Alfred Street and Tamborine Street.
• Retail and hospitality: about 3,800 sqm.

The article names BDA Architecture for the residential design, J.AR Office for the podium and laneways, and Urbis as landscape architect. It says the design draws on 1960s Gold Coast holiday culture and takes its name from the original Lennons Hotel. Ground-level landscaped laneways are to link the restaurants, cafes, bars and shops.

The article states no price and no construction cost. It describes the retail and hospitality space as about 3,800 sqm, and says the hotel offers both rooms and suites alongside the restaurants, bars and wellness facilities. The residences are a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments, and the article gives no split by bedroom count.

What’s next

The article says the project is under construction, with the first guests expected in early 2028. It places the site near a planned light rail station on the southern extension, in a Neighbourhood Centre Zone. The article does not say who will operate the hotel, so that remains the detail to watch as opening nears.
