Best Western Unilodge Hotel
Management
Built in 1904, Hotel UniLodge Sydney is better known in the community as "The Old Grace Bros store", a reference to its origins as the flagship for the Grace Bros department store chain. The building itself has had a long and colourful history as a department store, hosting everything from the arrival of the American Fleet in 1908 to war-time farewell dances and visits by Queen Elizabeth II.
Grace Bros Broadway operated as a department store for 90 years until its closure in 1995 and following a revolutionary yet sympathetic development by Walker Australia Pty Ltd was reborn in 1997 as Hotel UniLodge Sydney. The floors which once housed dress, calicoes, manchester and millinery are now occupied by 98, 3½ star hotel rooms as well as longterm student lodgings.
