Best Luxury Hotels In Hong Kong

Hong Kong has long since shed its cloak of smog both figuratively and literally. With nearly thirty years of independence from the British Commonwealth under its belt, this region of China has been putting in the work to fully establish itself as one of Asia’s most bustling and cosmopolitan cities, but this isn’t just a playground for the suited and booted business men and bankers but also those who enjoy a slice of glitz and glamour… in spades.

With boundaries being broken in both the food and drink sector, Hong Kong boasts restaurants and bars in the ‘World’s Best 100 list, along with well-known favourites of the glitterati such as Nobu and Hakkasan taking up residence, this is the place to enjoy a slice of the luxury lifestyle. With jaw-dropping rooftop bars offering views of the iconic skyline a plenty, unparalleled shopping and some of the best hotels in the world, this destination deserves a spot on your ‘must visit’ list, if only just to soak up the palpable energy and dazzling nightlife.

If tradition and culture are more your thing all the usual players are on offer, be it antiques and curios on Cat Street, visiting a traditional tea house or getting a tailor-made suit but those who matter know this city really comes to life after dark.
