The proposed Citadines Connect Sydney Airport (image: Ascott REIT) Opened in February 2018, the new acquisition is adjacent to Ascott's 91-room Quest Mascot hotel and is within walking distance to both the Mascot train station and Sydney airport. "With this enhanced presence in the vicinity of Sydney Airport, Ascott Reit is not only well positioned to benefit from the growing transient traveller traffic, but more importantly gain access to a significant number of transport and logistics-related national corporate accounts, as well as to capture demand from the growing industries in its neighbouring suburbs," said Ascott Residence Trust Management Limited CEO Beh Siew Kim. The Citadines Connect brand will cater to frequent travellers needing shorter stays, with self-check-in, a 24-hour 'Grab & Go' food and beverage bar, and round-the-clock gym facilities.
