The Three-Key hotel
Rosewood Hong Kong stands as the crown jewel of a world-class brand now headquartered in the city. Rising 65 stories over the Kowloon waterfront, this is not just another luxury opening — it is the Rosewood group’s global flagship, a statement of what modern hospitality in Hong Kong can be.
The views are extraordinary: most of the 400-plus oversized rooms and suites gaze across Victoria Harbour at the city skyline, with understated contemporary interiors shaped by New York-based Taiwanese designer Tony Chi. Beyond the rooms, Asaya redefines the urban spa with holi stic wellness programs, an outdoor pool and expansive fitness facilities, while the eight dining and beverage options add further to its charm.

Where design and gourmet meet
Hong Kong’s homegrown names remain compelling. The Peninsula Hong Kong is a paragon of timeless elegance, from its iconic afternoon tea service to its detail-oriented service. The Upper House, crafted by André Fu, is where modern boutique expression meets high-end luxury. The Murray, Hong Kong, a Niccolo Hotel, a sleek conversion of a 1960s government building by Foster + Partners, brings contemporary design and street-level vitality to the city’s hotel scene. Meanwhile, international names such as Mandarin Oriental, Four Seasons, The Ritz-Carlton and St. Regis continue to anchor their presence in Hong Kong’s skyline and hospitality scene.
What unites them all is a bold commitment to creativity — whether in architecture, interiors or gastronomy. From projects by André Fu of the Upper House o the diverse design talents behind Hotel ICON Hong Kong to MICHELIN-Starred kitchens spanning Cantonese, Indian, French and many more, these hotels are more than places to stay; they are immersive expressions of Hong Kong’s rhythm, heritage and modern sensibility.
