History
In 2005 the Toga Group entered into a long-term agreement to manage Travelodge Hotels in Australia and New Zealand.
In 2005, JF Meridian Trust expanded its operational and capital base by raising A$126.9 million, part of which would go to buy a half stake in the Travelodge Hotel chain with the joint deal involving NRMA as co-owner and the Toga Group as manager of the chain.
JF Meridian Trust was later absorbed into Mirvac Group, growing its initial 8 hotels to 13 properties.
In 2013, a report in The Australian suggested China, Japan and South Korea were among expected launch countries, with NRMA chief executive Tony Stuart saying he would like to "work with local partners in places like China, Japan, and Korea".
In 2014, rights to the hotel brand in 22 markets throughout the Asia-Pacific region were acquired by Singaporean company ICP. This excluded Australia and New Zealand where Mirvac and NRMA have retained brand rights.
The Toga Group has since formed a joint venture with Far East Hospitality to create TFE Hotels (Toga Far East Hotels), which operate the Adina Apartment Hotels, Medina Serviced Apartments, Rendezvous Hotels, Vibe Hotels and Travelodge Hotels brands across Australia and New Zealand.
