Griffith, NSW, June 19, 2025: The Gem Hotel, a standout property in regional New South Wales and winner of the 2022 Regional Hotel Award, is now on the market with a striking price tag of over $50 million AUD. Boasting 65 elegantly renovated rooms, a premium conference center, and a rare poker machine license, this property is attracting major interest among investors and industry insiders.
Located in the heart of Griffith, the Gem has become a local landmark since its 2021 makeover, drawing both tourism and business clientele. The fully refurbished guest rooms and event spaces have helped the venue generate impressive earnings—reportedly over $13 million AUD in annual revenue.
What makes the sale especially compelling is the conference and events infrastructure tailored to regional demand, as well as the legal gaming license. In areas like this, such licenses are tightly regulated and often excluded from hotel sale offerings, making the Gem a rare and highly valuable package.
Investment analysts point to a broader trend: regional hospitality properties across Australia are commanding record valuations, fueled by an uptick in domestic travel and government spending on infrastructure. The Gem Hotel’s strong performance and strategic assets make it a flagship example of this surge in demand.
