Ideal for families, couples and business travellers. The brand-new Meriton Suites George Street, Parramatta’s stunning serviced apartments take luxury accommodation to the next level with an unbeatable location in the heart of Sydney’s second C*D. Meriton Suites George Street is a game-changer on the Parramatta accommodation scene, an outstanding hotel befitting Sydney’s second C*D. A towering landmark soaring high above the historic town, you’ll feel on top of the world when you stay in this brand-new hotel overlooking the Parramatta River. Parramatta River has held great significance to the First Nations people of the area for thousands of years. The name ‘Parramatta’ is thought to mean ‘place where the eels lie down’ in order to breed in the river. As one of the tallest hotels in Parramatta, Meriton Suites George Street not only offers you a birdseye view of the river but an expansive vista of the entire region, stretching into the city. And as every suite has a private balcony, you can sit outside and take it all in. Or walk three minutes to Parramatta Wharf and take a ferry into the Sydney C*D. Built to state-of-the-art design principles and stylishly furnished, these stunning serviced apartments are the most contemporary in Parramatta, within a selection of available one and two bedroom suites. (Three bedroom suites and a deluxe four-bedroom Penthouse Collection suite available from early 2023.) Gourmet kitchens, gleaming bathrooms stocked with the designer KEVIN.MURPHY Repair-Me range and internal laundries in every suite add exceptional value. For solo or business travellers, couples, families and groups, you’ll find a suite that not only meets but exceeds your expectations. As Sydney’s second C*D, Parramatta is home to numerous corporate head offices and government departments. We understand business guests need a modern, clean, quiet place to work and rest. Somewhere close to the office, that cuts out the commute time. Business people visiting Parramatta and the Western Sydney area regularly choose to stay at Meriton Suites as we deliver the highest standards. Guest services are available 24/7, with friendly staff trained to ensure all your needs are met. Of course, free and unlimited wi-fi is non-negotiable. Each suite has a fully equipped kitchen with a coffee machine and pods for a quick caffeine hit. Or pop downstairs to Beans & Barrels, a classy cafe, bar and eatery. STAYCAST™ by Google Chromecast allows you to stream all your favourite content from your device to your in-room TV, and Bluetooth speakers are a welcome addition. Floor-to-ceiling glass in every room floods your suite with natural light, so you won’t need a ring light for your Zoom calls, and you can open the windows or step out onto the balcony when you need a break from the screens. Parramatta is the largest commercial and cultural hub in Western Sydney. Its distinctly multicultural community has created a vibrant dining and entertainment precinct unlike anywhere else in Sydney. And when you stay at Meriton Suites George Street, it’s all within easy reach. Only 750 metres from the hotel, Church Street is home to a colourful array of alfresco cafes, restaurants and bars. Fondly known by locals as Eat Street, you’ll find Indian, Indonesian, Spanish, Vietnamese, Greek, Chinese, Mediterranean, South American… and more. Sure, you can choose to cook all your meals in your apartment — the fully equipped kitchen has everything you need. But it’s tempting to treat yourself and dine out so as to avoid a bad case of FOMO. Keen shoppers will be pleased to know the massive Westfield Parramatta is just a ten-minute walk from the hotel and that there’s a Woolworths on-site so that you can stock up on essentials. Sports fans will be thrilled with the proximity to major sporting facilities. Major games and events happen regularly at nearby CommBank Stadium. It’s a short two-minute walk from the hotel to the free route 900 bus, which takes you directly to the stadium. In neighbouring Homebush, you’ll find Sydney’s largest sporting facility at Sydney Olympic Park, and you’ll also find horse racing, golf, tennis and aquatic centres nearby. For culture vultures, the fabulous Riverside Theatres provides a multi-venue performing arts centre with a fantastic program of events throughout the year. And avid historians interested in exploring the history of Parramatta can begin with a visit to Old Government House, the oldest surviving public building in Australia. The Westmead public and private hospitals, Westmead Children’s Hospital and Westmead Hospital Eye Clinic are all located less than three kilometres from Meriton Suites George Street. These are some of Australia’s most extensive medical facilities, and there’s always a need for Parramatta accommodation for family and friends visiting loved ones in hospital, or for those who need somewhere clean and comfortable to recuperate after surgery. The last thing you need when experiencing medical issues is extra stress. That’s why our dedicated Guest Services team is available 24 hours a day to help you with whatever you need. Our friendly team can help you navigate your way around on public transport. Ask them how to use an Opal card and other travel tips to get around Sydney. Nearby Parramatta train station has regular trains to Westmead, or you can book a taxi or rideshare service. When you need a break and want to explore the region, there’s the Parramatta Light Rail or regular bus services. If you have time during your stay, take the ferry along Parramatta River into Circular Quay. It’s a delightful trip as the ferry meanders along the long stretch of water, passing picturesque Sydney neighbourhoods. It’s one of the best ways to see Sydney like a local.
