St Hilliers has received two awards in this year‚Äö?Ñ?¥s MBA of NSW Excellence in Construction Awards for its construction of a $53 million hotel at Sydney Olympic Park and a new $23 million high school in north west Sydney.

The Pullman Hotel, which won the Hospitality Buildings over $10 million category, is the first 5-star hotel to be constructed in Sydney in over a decade and western Sydney's first 5-star hotel. The hotel is the tenth project St Hilliers has completed for client, Accor Asia Pacific.

Located in Sydney Olympic Park, the Pullman hotel comprises 18 storeys with 212 rooms, conference rooms and guest fitness and recreational facilities. St Hilliers constructed the hotel using a highly efficient system comprising a traditional concrete structure for the basement and podium levels with the high rise constructed using an ultra floor system, internal walls of Hebel and precast panels for the facade. 

Sustainability was an important focus of the design brief for the hotel and incorporated initiatives, such as energy efficient lighting and solar water heating panels, to achieve a 40% saving of operating costs as compared to a similar hotel.
