The group-wide rebranding initiative which was introduced by the Rendezvous Hospitality Group (RHG) at the end of 2011 is now complete, with Rendezvous Hotel Perth becoming the Rendezvous Grand Hotel Perth Scarborough on June 11, 2013.

The group-owned Rendezvous Grand Hotel Perth Scarborough, which is located in a prime position on Scarborough Beach, has undergone an extensive refurbishment, incorporating contemporary interior design and state-of-the-art facilities.

A Perth icon, Rendezvous Grand Hotel Perth Scarborough has been transformed through a major investment in the latest technology, modern amenities and brand identity and it is now distinguished as one of the most outstanding convention and premier accommodation experiences in Perth.  It delivers over 3000m2 of refreshed conference space across 26 venues, including two expansive ballrooms, five new purpose built boardrooms and multiple outdoor locations to the local and international market.

Announcing the new name, Rendezvous Hospitality Group CEO, Eric Teng said the culmination of the Group's year-long rebranding initiative was a significant milestone in RHG history.

"The completion of refurbishment works to the flagship Rendezvous Grand Hotel Perth Scarborough is a fitting transformation to our investment in bringing all the Rendezvous hotels together under one brand," said Mr Teng.

"We remain committed to our customers by providing fresh and stylish accommodations throughout Australia, New Zealand and Asia and our rebranding initiative is reflective of our Group values and mission moving forward," he added.

Rendezvous hotels offer discerning travellers for business and leisure, superior value accommodation with a unique hospitality experience.

RHG has a portfolio of 13 hotels in 10 locations across Asia Pacific.  During 2012, the entire Hotel portfolio transformed through this rebranding initiative to Rendezvous Grand Hotels, Rendezvous Hotels and Rendezvous Studio Hotels.

Rendezvous Grand Hotel Singapore was the first Hotel in the Group to be re-named in early 2012 following an extensive refurbishment program.

Across the Pacific, Rendezvous Grand Hotel Auckland was the second property to undergo the re-naming, again following a refurbishment program. The former Marque Hotel Christchurch has also been re-named Rendezvous Hotel Christchurch and was re-opened on May 01 2013.
