An affiliate of Hyatt Hotels Corporation entered into a management agreement with Fu Wah New Zealand for a Park Hyatt hotel in Auckland, New Zealand. Expected to open in 2017, Park Hyatt Auckland will mark Hyatt's return to New Zealand, and the first Park Hyatt-branded hotel to open in Auckland.
The hotel will have 190 guestrooms, three restaurants and bars, event spaces, a spa, a pool and a fitness center. Park Hyatt Auckland will be located at a waterfront location on Auckland Harbour, which is expected to undergo a major revitalization to turn the area into a leisure, entertainment, culture and dining destination.
