Four ways to add a little play to your business stay

-

1 Give the expense account a workout

Client hosting is part of good business — and the perfect excuse to try out one of SKYCITY’s world-class restaurant­s, from modern Chinese dining at Huami to cocktails and fine cuisine with the city’s highest view at Peter Gordon’s Sugar Club.

2 Start the day with a bang

A good breakfast will get your day off to a solid start. Gusto at the Grand, the hotel’s one-hat restaurant, is a symphony of dark woods, marble, trailing greenery and quirky artworks, with bottomless Americano coffee and a menu of classics with a twist, like the Fennel Sausage and Broccoli Hash or Quinoa-Spiked Porridge. Hit the ground running with a breakfast meeting, or if you can’t spare the time to leave your room, you can eat in — the menu is available via room service.

3 Soak up some culture

Catch an after-work movie, play or comedy act at the SKYCITY Theatre next door — it’s home to an everchangi­ng roster of shows and performanc­es, including annual icon events like the New Zealand Internatio­nal Film Festival and the New Zealand Internatio­nal Comedy Festival.

4 Get out of your comfort zone

A huge hit of adrenaline is an amazing way to give yourself a massive confidence boost and a new perspectiv­e about what’s possible. Challenge yourself and your key team to go beyond your day-to-day limits by taking an exhilarati­ng Sky Tower SkyWalk or SkyJump.
