NEXT Hotel Brisbane has launched NEXT Journey, a chauffeured Tesla limousine service with zero emissions for the journey and zero compromises for our guests.

The next generation automobile is accessible to both guests and the general public for airport transfers or a day trip to the Gold Coast or Sunshine Coast.  

NEXT Hotel continues to lead the way in bringing together technology and hospitality for the benefit of guests. With innovation integrated to the hotel's DNA, NEXT Journey will connect guests to the hotel, where check-in occurs en-route and guest arrival is straight to the room.   

This is the latest step for NEXT Hotel in the pursuit of innovation and technological advances, which have resulted in the hotel receiving recognition and awards* within the first six months of operation.

“It made perfect sense for NEXT Hotel to align with like-minded disruptors that challenge mediocrity within their industries. The similarities are paralleled with shared philosophies of innovation, technology and efficiency. We are the first hotel in Australia to offer guests' access to a Tesla for their transport needs whether that be for business or leisure”, said Alex Billing, General Manager for NEXT Hotel Brisbane.

“This as part of our underlying philosophy to think differently, especially when it perfectly frames the first impression for our guests”, said Billing.

Just as Tesla's vehicles update their software to keep the car state of the art, NEXT Hotel Brisbane updates the NEXT app so guests have the latest information at their fingertips.

Being intrinsically part of the wider Tesla community, Next Hotel Brisbane is equipped with a Tesla electric charging point for car owners to get connected. Connectivity without conditions is essential, as NEXT Hotel also offers free access to high speed wi-fi, and is complimentary in guest rooms and public areas whether staying in-house or not.
