In the geometry of hyperbolic 5-space, the 24-cell honeycomb honeycomb is one of five paracompact regular space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs). It is called paracompact because it has infinite facets, whose vertices exist on 4-horospheres and converge to a single ideal point at infinity. With Schläfli symbol {3,4,3,3,3}, it has three 24-cell honeycombs around each cell. It is dual to the 5-orthoplex honeycomb.
It is related to the regular Euclidean 4-space 24-cell honeycomb, {3,4,3,3}, and the hyperbolic 5-space order-4 24-cell honeycomb honeycomb.
