COPTHORNE HOTEL GREYMOUTH TO OPEN 1st MARCH 2022

Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited (NZX:MCK) is pleased to announce that the hotel at 32 Mawhera Quay, Greymouth will reopen on 1 March 2022 as Copthorne Hotel Greymouth. The hotel has traded as Kingsgate Hotel Greymouth until now.

MCK Managing Director Mr. BK Chiu said that the rebranding confirmed MCK’s commitment to invest in the West Coast.

“Over the years, more and more visitors have come to know and appreciate the attractions of the West Coast of the South Island and Greymouth in particular and this upgrade and rebrand to one of our key regional hotels will ensure that it remains the preferred choice for accommodation there”, he said.

The refurbished hotel will have a total of 53 guest rooms over 6 floors. A new 55-seat restaurant and bar area has been created in the tower block and the reception area has also been redesigned.

With its location in a rugged and dramatically beautiful part of New Zealand, the hotel overlooks the Mawheranui (Grey River) and is close to Greymouth Station where the internationally renowned Tranz Alpine train journey from Christchurch ends.

MCK Vice President Operations Ken Orr said that it was pleasing to see the hotel reopen after being closed for the past twelve months.

“West Coasters are well known for being extremely resilient folk and we’re confident that with the reopening of the hotel with a thoroughly refreshed product in the tallest building in Greymouth, we will be welcoming back our loyal corporate customers and leisure guests as they reconnect with the untamed natural wilderness that is the West Coast with its sense of history”, he said.
