Marriott International, Inc. announced a signed agreement with PHC Queenstown Limited to debut St. Regis Hotels & Resorts in Queenstown, New Zealand. Combining timeless glamour and vanguard spirit, the property is anticipated to offer exquisite experiences in one of the world's finest addresses starting in late 2027.

The hotel is set to be located on a prominent corner site in central Queenstown, with views to The Remarkables mountain range and Lake Wakatipu. Expected to feature 145 rooms, this new-build luxury hotel is set to be Marriott’s inaugural foothold in Queenstown as the first St. Regis hotel in New Zealand.

Alongside the planned 145 luxurious guestrooms and suites, The St. Regis Queenstown is expected to feature the famed hallmarks of the brand including sophisticated bar and dining offerings such as The Drawing Room, The St. Regis Bar, an all-day dining venue and an event space. St. Regis’ butler service has been a signature offering of the brand for over a century, and will offer guests anticipatory, personalized service that ensure their unique preferences are understood and realized. Revered around the world as best-in-class, the Butler Service experience includes packing and unpacking services, garment pressing, and personalised in-room beverage and wake-up services.

The St. Regis Spa is slated to offer a hydrothermal facilities zone and a relaxation and wellness lounge, complemented by the hotel’s indoor heated pool and fitness centre.

Established in New York in 1904, the St. Regis portfolio consists of more than 65 celebrated properties globally today and continues to evolve as it offers guests exceptional service – including its renowned St. Regis Butler Service and extraordinary attention to detail.

The St. Regis Queenstown will join Marriott’s growing pipeline of St. Regis Hotels in the Australia, New Zealand and Pacific (ANZP) region, and marks the company’s third signing for the brand in the region.
