Located in the heart of Wan Chai, the new St. Regis will be within walking distance of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, as well as Victoria Harbour.

With upscale East-meets-West interiors created by Hong Kong-based designer André Fu, the 25-story St. Regis Hong Kong will offer 129 guest suites, many of which will feature stunning views across the harbour and Kowloon Bay.

In addition to the brand’s signature Butler Service, guests will enjoy Chinese and French restaurants, a heated swimming pool, an open-air terrace, a Lobby Lounge and a St. Regis Bar.

“All St. Regis Hotels & Resorts represent the ultimate in timeless, tasteful luxury, which the discerning and sophisticated traveller appreciates. We are also happy to note that the presence of the outstanding new St. Regis in Wan Chai district will add a new level of prestige and appeal to this vibrant quarter of our city,” said Frankie Y.F. Bao, managing director, China Resources Property, St. Regis’ partner on the opening of the new hotel.
