History
The Towers were constructed on the site of the old Chevron Hotel, which ceased trading in the mid-1980s and was demolished in 1987. The site remained empty until it was purchased and redeveloped in the late 1990s by the Raptis Group.
Construction of the Towers of Chevron Renaissance commenced in September 2001 and was completed in December 2004. They were named Skyline, Skyline North and Skyline Central in honour of the Skyline Bar, which was opened in 1957 as part of the Chevron Hotel.
The first Tower of the Chevron Renaissance project, Skyline, was completed in January 2003. The second, Skyline North, was completed in May 2004. The third Tower, Skyline Central, was completed in October 2004.
In 2002 property management company S8 Ltd purchased the management rights to the first Tower of the Chevron Renaissance project, Skyline.
In 2006, hotel group Accor took over management rights to all three towers from S8.
In 2015, property management company Mantra Group purchased the management rights to Towers of Chevron Renaissance, and renamed them the Mantra Towers of Chevron Surfers Paradise.
