Horizon By SkyCity Announces March Opening
Horizon by SkyCity, Auckland’s new five-star hotel will open to guests from 1 March 2024, making SkyCity the largest single-site accommodation provider in New Zealand, with 938 rooms across three hotels in the SkyCity precinct.
The 5-star hotel is SkyCity’s third hotel property in Auckland, alongside SkyCity Hotel and The Grand by SkyCity. The addition of Horizon by SkyCity will bring 303 rooms, including ten suites.
SkyCity Chief Operation Officer, Callum Mallett says, “Horizon by SkyCity has been designed to connect our guests to their surroundings, from the curved architecture of the hotel with outlooks across the city and beyond to touches of Aotearoa in every room. They’ll find it a home away from home”.
Multiple entries to the hotel allow guests to move throughout the central city, with a pedestrian laneway, street-level access, and unique air bridges connecting the hotel to the SkyCity precinct and the New Zealand International Convention Centre set to open in 2025.
David Allott, SkyCity General Manager of Hospitality says, “Horizon by SkyCity has been thoughtfully crafted with the modern traveller in mind.
“Our guests will be spoilt for choice with world-class dining and entertainment options conveniently located mere minutes away”.
Designed by Moller Architects, Horizon by SkyCity has several architecturally designed features, including the curved glass façade and the ability to join the Sky Tower in lighting its exterior.
Recruitment for the hotel and NZICC is ongoing, with SkyCity looking to add a further 600 new employees over the next few years.
