BACKGROUND The opening of Regent Hong Kong in November 2023 was an exciting homecoming for the brand, which was the original incarnation of the popular Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront hotel in 1980. It became the InterContinental Hong Kong in 2001, before closing in 2020 for a refurb and rebrand. With IHG having acquired the Regent brand in 2018, the group has reinstated it to its former glory.
WHERE IS IT? Enviably located on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront above the Avenue of Stars. The avant-garde K11 Musea shopping destination and Hong Kong Museum of Art stand either side of the property, with other luxury hotels such as the Rosewood and Peninsula nearby. It's a five-minute walk to the Star Ferry or East Tsim Sha Tsui MTR station, with plenty of buses and taxis nearby.
WHAT'S IT LIKE? As you walk into the lobby the hotel feels immediately different, with moody modern interiors, a sleek line of reception desks, and striking Spirit of Regent digital artworks.
The new design has been conceived by Hong Kong designer Chi Wing Lo, though the structural bones remain, including iconic features such as the glass-fronted lobby lounge with breathtaking harbour views and a sweeping white marble staircase.
