Welcome to Ovolo! We're a surreal collection of boutique hotels across Australia, Hong Kong, & Bali.

We pride ourselves on unique properties enhanced by bespoke design while always keeping the modern traveller in mind. We have a love affair with fashion, art, music, and the environment and this dictates who we are, and why we exist.

Our mission is to share happiness. With bright minds, we aim to create good vibrations that carry far and wide- throughout our hotel lobbies, corridors, bars, restaurants, swimming pools, gyms, conference rooms, and beyond... It’s everywhere you look.

At Ovolo, we want you to be yourself. It’s what keeps us from swimming in the 'Sea of Boring'. That’s why we’ve ditched the tired old corporate scripts, and empowered our people to speak from the heart. Characters and mavericks, come one, come all, don't by shy, and prepare yourself to experience a world full of wonder.

Now, lets talk about you...
