Whittaker’s chocolate concierge stands in front of Hotel Fitzroy, which has been gift wrapped in a giant bow to mark the launch of the Whittaker’s Hotel Sweet.
This is what dreams are made of! To celebrate 130 years of chocolate-making, Whittaker’s is inviting Chocolate Lovers to book a night at Hotel Sweet, a one-of-a-kind chocolate ‘sweet’ designed for the ultimate overnight indulgence.
From chocolate tastings to factory tours, food tourism centred around iconic flavours is booming globally. With Hotel Sweet, Whittaker’s is bringing an indulgent overnight experience to Kiwi Chocolate Lovers.
From 5-18 April, Whittaker's will take over a luxury suite at Auckland's historic Hotel Fitzroy, transforming the boutique hotel into the sweetest stay in the country, first come, first served.
Set inside one of Auckland’s most intimate boutique hotels, Whittaker’s will transform the space into an immersive celebration of 130 years of chocolate-making. The hotel will be ‘choc’ full of subtle nods for Chocolate Lovers who know their Whittaker’s history.
Guests can expect a delicious Whittaker’s welcome on arrival, decadent chocolate inspired bed linen and robes, a curated Whittaker’s library celebrating the brand’s history, and of course, plenty of Whittaker’s treats along the way.
A limited number of one-night stays will be available for singles or couples across the two-week celebration. They are open for a one-of-a-kind chocolate stay to celebrate 130 years of Whittaker’s .
Holly Whittaker, Co-Chief Operating Officer, says turning 130 felt like the perfect excuse to do something a little sweet.
“Whittaker’s has been part of Kiwi life for generations, so our 130th birthday felt like something we should celebrate with the Chocolate Lovers who’ve supported us all these years,” she says.
“Whittaker’s Hotel Sweet lets people step inside that celebration, enjoy a few familiar favourites and have some fun with it. It’s our birthday, after all.”
Hotel Sweet marks the first time in Whittaker's history that the brand has created a bookable overnight experience.
All proceeds from suite bookings will be donated to Save the Kiwi, Whittaker's longest-standing charity partner, celebrating 10 years together this year.
The first tranche of bookings are now open, and are expected to disappear quickly. Visit whittakershotelsweet.co.nz to secure your place.
Whittaker’s 130th birthday celebrations will take place throughout the year, including activities and celebrations connected to the brand’s Wellington roots.
