Altira Macau (Chinese: 新濠鋒酒店, Portuguese: Altira Macau), formerly known as Crown Macau, is an integrated resort and casino in Taipa, Macau, SAR China. The hotel complex has 216 guest rooms and a spa. Altira Macau is the tallest building in Taipa and among the tallest 20 buildings in Macau.
History
The integrated resort was built and initially operated by Melco Crown Entertainment, a joint venture by Hong Kong–based Melco International Development Limited and Australian based Crown Limited. It opened as Crown Macau on May 12, 2007. It was renamed Altira Macau on April 27, 2009, prior to the June opening of the Crown Towers Macau by Melco. Catering to clientele from Asia, management of Altira Macau operated as a partnership until May 2017, when Melco International acquired a $1.16 billion controlling interest in Crown Resorts. Melco Crown Entertainment was then renamed Melco Resorts & Entertainment. The resort closed for 15 days in February 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
