There are countless reasons why Altira’s slew of awards is warranted. Ranked among the world’s best hotels, you’ll discover that a stay at the highly acclaimed hotel is truly an unforgettable experience. Located in the heart of Taipa with convenient access to Macau airport and within easy reach of tourist attractions and hotspots, the incredible structure itself is a striking focal point of entertainment and hospitality.
Altira Macau became part of an elite group of only 10 properties worldwide to hold the Forbes Travel Guide’s prestigious “Triple Five-Star” Award, with five-star recognitions across the hotel, spa and restaurant categories. Designed with distinctive sophistication, the 38-storey complex offers a genuinely personalized and tailored high roller leisure entertainment experience. The grand structure features 216 deluxe hotel rooms, including 24 suites and four villas, the stylish 38 Lounge, a variety of world-class restaurants, including the Italian fine-dining restaurant Aurora and Japanese restaurant Tenmasa, as well as Altira Spa. Derived from the latin word altus meaning “high”, Altira’s chinese name is also revered as “cutting edge”. It represents luxury and the highest standard of hospitality for the high-end Asian market.
In an area teeming with trendy restaurants and concept bars, it can be quite a challenge to stand out. That’s not the case with Aurora, the dynamic kitchen and exciting bar balances the warm and elegant ambiance of this dazzling dining spot. Sip on charming cocktails while looking out from a 700-square-meter terrace with its uber stylish furniture set among bamboo groves, you can hit pause and truly capture the stunning views of the Macau Peninsula. Having received the Forbes Travel Guide’s highest Five Star Award rating in 2014, 2015 and 2016, there is no doubt about the caliber and quality of dishes set upon the lavish tables for the most discerning palates.
A serene sanctuary, the Altira Spa boasts a stunning interior design by acclaimed designer Peter Remédios and German-based spa engineer Deckelmann Wellness. Nestled in Level 15 and 16 of the hotel, it features the most lavish and sophisticated facilities in Macau such as vitality pools, crystal steam, saunas, ice fountain, rasul and experience showers. Perhaps the most exciting element is the incredible infinity-edge swimming pool that has been named by US Forbes Traveler as one of the 10 best hotel swimming pools in the world. This year, Altira Spa has been awarded the coveted Forbes Five-Star rating for the seventh consecutive year, representing one of the six spas to receive this prestigious award in Macau.
Tenmasa evokes a sense of calmness with its intimate ambiance. Set on a mix of modern design with traditional tatami rooms, this Japanese restaurant is home to highly skilled chefs who craft culinary art before guests using special metal chopsticks to sense the vibrations of the food, ensuring that each dish is cooked to perfection. An exclusive Sake Bar is also available for pre- or post-dinner drinks, offering breathtaking views of the Macau skyline. Tenmasa’s tempura is quite legendary but the restaurant’s signature dish is Tenderloin foie gras hoba yaki – grilled Wagyu tenderloin and foie gras with sesame miso sauce on hoba leaf, and also caramelized sweet potato tempura with brandy dessert come highly recommended. Fresh ingredients and authentic flavors have sealed it as a Forbes Five-Star restaurant in 2015 and 2016. Tenmasa was also named “First Class” restaurant at the 2014 Star Merchant Award launched by the Macau Government Tourist Office, and is the winner in that category to have earned the “Service Star Award.”
