The 312-key Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong, is the newest addition to the brand’s portfolio of 75 luxury properties and is the 16th Ritz-Carlton in Asia.

“The opening of this landmark hotel in Hong Kong is the culmination of many years of hard work and dedication to delivering the very best product, facilities and service in this international gateway city,” says Herve Humler, president and chief operations officer of The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Co. “Partnering with Hong Kong’s premier developer, Sung Hung Kai Properties, we have been able to create something truly spectacular to welcome our guests—not just to the highest hotel in the world, but also to one of the very best hotels in the world. We are taking luxury to new heights in every sense.”

The stylish and contemporary interiors by Singapore’s LTW set the scene for this thoroughly modern hotel in the heart of Hong Kong, which boasts views of Victoria Harbour and the Hong Kong skyline. Guests will be welcomed into the arrival lobby on the ninth floor before being transported up to the hotel lobby on the 103rd floor.

The hotel’s six dining venues have been created by some of the biggest names in restaurant design, including Japan’s Spin Design Studio and Wonderwall. The hotel offers three restaurants on the 102nd floor, including Tin Lung Heen, which is a Chinese restaurant serving refined Cantonese cuisine; Tosca, an Italian restaurant that offers Southern Italian cuisine with an open kitchen; and The Lounge & Bar, which features stunning crystal fire pits. There is also the chocolate-themed lounge The Chocolate Library on the 103rd floor and a stylish patisserie located on the ninth floor.
