A $50 MILLION six-star luxury hotel is being planned at the iconic Barossa Valley winery Seppeltsfield.
The 12-storey development (pictured) features around 70 rooms, including suites and penthouses, with all rooms including a private balcony.
The Oscar Seppeltsfield is also set to include a day spa, infinity pool, a top-level sky bar and a restaurant, with planners aiming for it to become the “Opera House of the Barossa”, and to rival McLaren Vale’s d’Arenberg Cube.
To be developed by Luxury Hotels Australia, a consortium made up of a group of South Australian business leaders, Oscar Seppeltsfield is set to begin construction next year, and open its doors in 2022.
The hotel will be built on land owned by Seppeltsfield Wines and leased to Luxury Hotels Australia for 99 years.
“Oscar will complete the grand vision of our tourism master plan for Seppeltsfield to become the most desirable epicurean destination for tourists worldwide,” said Seppeltsfield Wines Proprietor & Managing Director Warren Randall.
“The hotel will be positioned gently in the middle of the Great Terraced Vineyard, surrounded by century old bush vines, an amazingly tranquil location and a short walking distance to the world-class Seppeltsfield tourism village.”
Randall added he hoped the development would elevate Seppeltsfield from a top-50 winery to a global top-five.
