An old hotel in Taipa, Macau, is set to be rejuvenated, with the former Beijing Imperial Palace Hotel officially renamed as the Gold Coast Hotel, planning to reopen in the second quarter of 2026. This reconstruction project marks the first major progress after nearly a decade of the hotel's closure, drawing attention from tourists in the vicinity.
Hotel Renaming and Reopening Plan
According to the hotel's promotional materials, this property located in Taipa, adjacent to the Studio City Macau, has been renamed to Gold Coast Hotel, with an expected opening in the second quarter of 2026. Importantly, this timeline is a key piece of data, with detailed reports available on the PASA official website for public reference.
Historical Background and Reasons for Closure
The hotel was previously known as the New Century Hotel, a five-star landmark located on the same roundabout as Altira Hotel and also housed the Greek Mythology Casino. However, the casino was closed at the end of 2015 by the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau for internal renovations, and the hotel itself was shut down by the Tourism Bureau in July 2016 due to safety and management issues, with its license returned to the government in early 2017 and has been idle since then.
Latest Developments and Future Outlook
Recently, new owners have taken over, construction vehicles have entered the site, and new signage indicates an association with Yoho Treasure Island Resorts World Hotel. However, details of the reconstruction such as positioning, facilities, and whether it will include gaming elements have not yet been announced, so everyone might need to wait a bit longer to see.
