voco Gosford is set to bring the signature style and spirited hospitality of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ IHG’s fastest growing premium brand to the Central Coast when it officially opens on 1 December 2025.
The launch of voco Gosford marks the fifth voco hotel in Australia, with the brand having recently celebrated 100 open hotels globally. Each voco property is distinct, with an inviting atmosphere which creates a space where guests can truly unwind and feel at ease, whilst also ensuring the reliability of a global brand.
Easily accessible from Sydney and just a 60-minute drive north, voco Gosford, will redefine coastal hospitality when it opens, bringing together refreshingly different accommodation, bold dining and peak social energy in the heart of Gosford.
Matt Tripolone, Managing Director, IHG Hotels & Resorts, Australasia & Pacific, said: “We’re incredibly proud to partner with ALAND in delivering this exceptional hotel and in bringing the vibrant voco brand to Gosford. As the fifth voco to open in Australia, this launch marks another milestone in IHG Hotels & Resorts’ growth story, as we continue to expand our premium and lifestyle offering across key urban and regional destinations”.
“voco Gosford combines the charm and warmth of an independent hotel with the reassurance of a trusted global brand. Together with ALAND, we’re excited to introduce a property that embodies the playful spirit of the Central Coast while redefining coastal hospitality for locals and travellers alike,” he said.
Designed with the relaxed coastal atmosphere of the Central Coast in mind, the hotel’s 130 stylish guestrooms draw inspiration from the surrounding landscape as well as voco’s three hallmarks of ‘Come on in’, ‘Me time’ and ‘voco life‘ to deliver a sense of individual charm and connection.
Flooded with natural light, each guest room offers beautifully styled interiors that include plush sustainable bedding, modern bathrooms and sweeping views across the city or bay, with most opening out to private balconies.
Guests will be able to spend their days unwinding by the podium-level swimming pool enjoying a drink from the swim-up bar, recharging in the onsite wellness centre or discovering the six distinctive dining and bar experiences that complement the hotel and bring the precinct to life.
As part of The Archibald Precinct, guests and locals can explore six distinctive dining venues. Highlights include Astra, a Japanese rooftop dining and bar concept led by Michelin-star-trained Executive Chef Maxime Chasseriaud, alongside the family-friendly watering hole Archies Pub and Sports Bar which is home to two unique dining experiences, Ironbark kitchen and the Italian trattoria, Paolo’s, each delivering the bold flavour, genuine warmth and vibrant energy synonymous with the voco brand.
With a venue to suit every occasion, voco Gosford offers a generous 700sqm of world-class conferencing and event facilities, split across two levels, that can host up to 378 people. Taking centre stage is Altitude Grand Ballroom, the Central Coast’s only rooftop event space and bar on Level 28 which boasts jaw-dropping views over Brisbane Water and three modern event spaces that can host everything from weddings, cocktail parties and corporate gatherings.
