On behalf of The Minister of Conservation, CBRE is requesting RFPs from potential investors, developers and hotel operators for the revitalisation of one of New Zealand’s most iconic hotels - Chateau Tongariro.
Located in the heart of Tongariro National Park at the base of Mt Ruapehu, the Chateau represents a rare large‑scale refurbishment opportunity within a nationally significant tourism landscape. This process seeks insights from qualified investors, developers, and operators regarding heritage‑sensitive refurbishment, seismic remediation, capital expenditure expectations, commercial structuring, Iwi engagement, and operational intentions. This is a unique opportunity to restore this landmark property to a premium four or five‑star standard, ensuring its long‑term viability and contribution to the region's tourism economy.
