New Name And New Look For Rendezvous Hotel Auckland

New Name And New Look For Rendezvous Hotel Auckland

New Zealand's largest hotel, Rendezvous Hotel Auckland, is currently undergoing refurbishment as part of a multi-million dollar Group re-branding initiative announced earlier this month.

The refurbishment of Rendezvous Hotel Auckland follows the mid-October announcement made by Rendezvous Hospitality Group uniting Rendezvous Hotels and Marque Hotels into one Rendezvous brand. Rendezvous Hotel Auckland will become Rendezvous Grand Hotel Auckland.

The extensive refurbishment will distinguish Rendezvous Hotel Auckland through design, technology, amenities and brand identity as one of the most outstanding dining and premier accommodation experiences in Auckland.

Mr Paul Gallop, Rendezvous Hotel Auckland General Manager said the refurbishment program at New Zealand's largest hotel will offer discerning travellers for business and leisure a unique hospitality experience.

"We are delighted to be well underway in such an exciting refurbishment program. All our guest suites have been completed along with our Tui conference rooms. Work will continue over the next few months on the remainder of our guestrooms and conference rooms along with our lobby, restaurants and bar. It has been, and will continue to be, paramount for us to maintain guest satisfaction throughout the entire process, ensuring that this period is one of excitement and not inconvenience. We look forward to unveiling the new designs once completed early next year," Mr Gallop said.

The extensive upgrade program incorporates all 452 guestrooms and suites, Club Lounge, Aucklander Bar and Lobby along with the Tui and Coromandel functions rooms. Additionally, both the Pacific Restaurant and the multi-award winning Katsura Japanese Restaurant will undergo a redesign to create new signature dining experiences.

The new-look guestrooms and suites will showcase modern living, combining extensive space with natural light to provide a more contemporary and comfortable environment for guests. Each room will feature specialised LED lighting to allow guests to define the mood, complemented by upgrades to in-room technology.

"Our upgraded guestrooms, lobby, dining and meeting facilities along with our CBD location and fine customer service will cement Rendezvous Hotel Auckland as one of the most sought-after hotels in the city".

The Hotel will remain open during the entire refurbishment period and work is scheduled for completion by February 2012.
