Accor to launch MGallery in Auckland
Accor has been appointed to manage the newly-named Hotel Lighter Quay, one of Auckland’s most recognised waterfront hotels. Formerly called the Hotel Viaduct Harbour, the five-star hotel joins Accor’s MGallery collection of boutique and upscale hotels. The hotel will be launched under its new identity on Monday 26 September, when it will become the second MGallery in New Zealand, following the Hotel St Moritz in Queenstown.
Accor’s Vice President for New Zealand & Fiji, Paul Richardson commented; “Our appointment represents a renaissance for Hotel Lighter Quay and the link between Viaduct Harbour and Wynyard Quarter. MGallery is a prestigious collection recognised world-wide as providing a distinctive guest experience that reflects each hotel’s individual personality and atmosphere. With an exceptional waterfront setting at the very heart of its vibrant neighbourhood, Hotel Lighter Quay certainly fits that definition.”
The Accor management contract extends to only to the hotel’s rooms at this stage, complete with room service, mini-bars and other services carried out by Accor staff. At present provision has been made for a food and beverage service in a hotel residents’ private lounge.
