Marriott will manage a new 1000-room hotel at the Hong Kong International Airport under an agreement reached with Union Sky Holdings Limited, a partnership between Shun Tak Holdings Limited and Dragages Hong Kong Limited.<\/p>\n
When opened in the second half of 2008, the hotel will be Marriott International's fifth hotel in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong SkyCity Marriott Hotel will be part of SkyCity, which is a large mixed-use complex that has been planned by the Hong Kong Airport Authority adjacent to the terminal of the Hong Kong International Airport.<\/p>\n
In addition to the hotel, SkyCity will include AsiaWorld-Expo, an exhibition center and arena with more than 70,000 square meters of rentable space (expandable to 100,000 square meters) that opened late last year; SkyPlaza, a complex adjacent to the airport terminal offering approximately 68,000 square meters of office, retail and entertainment facilities; SkyPier, which will provide ferry service to Macau and other destinations in the Pearl River Delta; and a nine-hole golf course.<\/p>\n
The hotel will be situated on the waterfront and will offer views of the South China Sea. Its location will also be very convenient for both Hong Kong residents and visitors, as the hotel will be located within a short drive of Hong Kong Disneyland and will be easily accessible to Hong Kong's central business district via an approximately 25-minute ride on an express train.<\/p>\n
The hotel will be built in two stages, with 658 rooms opening in the first phase and the remaining 342 rooms opening in the second phase. Construction on the first phase of the hotel is expected to begin later this year.<\/p>\n
The Marriott International lodging portfolio in Hong Kong is currently represented by the JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong, the Renaissance Harbour View Hotel Hong Kong, the Renaissance Hotel Kowloon and The Atrium, Marriott Executive Apartments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
