Marrying Cantonese tradition with modern luxury amid the famous skyline, Hong Kong’s hotels quietly take luxe to the next level. Think Rolls-Royce airport transfers from The Peninsula<\/a>, the oldest hotel in the city (circa 1928), where you can head to the Philippe-Starck-designed 28th-floor bar Felix for stunning Victoria Harbour views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Mandarin Oriental<\/a> in the heart of Central, there\u2019s high-end dining and some of the city\u2019s most scenic views of Victoria Harbour, the historic Statue Square Garden and the vibrant city streetscape. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Regent<\/a> is an excellent vantage point from which to see \u2018A Symphony of Lights<\/a>\u2019, one of the world\u2019s largest permanent sound and light shows. Renowned for its peaceful atmosphere, this hotel features a collection of art sourced from local artists.

Floating above the bright lights of the city, the modern, minimalist The Upper House<\/a> feels like a private residence and exudes quiet luxury. It\u2019s moments from the city centre with incredible mountain views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rosewood (Kowloon)<\/a> is famous for an infinity pool that overlooks Victoria Harbour, most rooms have a water view at this elegant hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
