Singapore-based design hotel group Naumi Hotels has launched Naumi Auckland Airport as its first location in New Zealand, as part of wider expansion plans in Australasia and internationally.
The hotel joins Naumi Hotel Singapore and Naumi Liora Singapore as the third property for the brand.
With design by Auckland-based design practices Material Creative (interior designers) and Ellery Muir & Associates (architect), the 193-room property has been designed to pay homage to the New Zealand’s native Tui bird.
Rooms have a total of 10 power points that allow guests to power their devices. Bathrooms are lined with tiles in a Herringbone pattern inspired by the Tui’s feathers, using colored grouting in fuchsia pink, aqua teal, nautical blue or cherry red.
The hotel’s restaurant, Paksa (“wing of a bird” in Sanskrit) is led by executive-chef Luke Bottner and offers Asian-fusion and classic dishes (i.e. bento box lunches, Hawkes Bay lamb rack or Waitoa chicken breast).
