Luxury hotels in Hong Kong

These 5 luxury hotels in Hong Kong offer different ways to stay around the harbour. Rosewood stands in Tsim Sha Tsui, with rooms from 53 m² and an outdoor pool. In the same district, The Peninsula’s Deluxe rooms measure 41–45 m². The Ritz-Carlton looks over the city from the upper floors of the International Commerce Centre in West Kowloon. Across the water, Four Seasons sits in Central’s IFC complex; Upper House rises above Pacific Place in Admiralty, with Studio 70 rooms of 68 m².

Which to choose

Start with the shore: Kowloon for Rosewood and Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong Island for Four Seasons and Upper House. Then consider the room, bathroom and pool you would use each day.

Frequently asked questions

Which hotels are in Kowloon and which are on Hong Kong Island?

Rosewood is at 18 Salisbury Road in Tsim Sha Tsui; The Ritz-Carlton occupies the International Commerce Centre at 1 Austin Road West. On Hong Kong Island, Four Seasons is in Central’s IFC complex and Upper House is above Pacific Place in Admiralty.

What are the differences between their pools?

Rosewood has a 25-metre outdoor pool on floor 6. Four Seasons, also on floor 6, has an outdoor infinity pool heated year-round beside a lap pool. The Ritz-Carlton has a heated indoor pool on floor 118. I would choose between swimming outdoors by the harbour and a covered pool much higher above it.

How large are the entry-level rooms?

Upper House’s Studio 70 measures 68 m²; Rosewood rooms start at 53 m² and Ritz-Carlton Deluxe rooms at 50 m². At Four Seasons, the Superior Harbour-View is 39 m² for 2 adults, with no extra beds; other rooms measure 45 m². The category name matters alongside its area, since outlook and occupancy vary. The Peninsula’s Deluxe rooms measure 41–45 m².

Where can I book a room with Club access?

At Rosewood, Club categories add the Manor Club on floor 40. At Four Seasons, the Room Rate offer includes Executive Club access for 2 guests in Executive Harbour-View rooms and suites. The Ritz-Carlton also distinguishes rooms with Club Lounge access. I would read the category and rate terms before booking, since additional guests and restaurants can have separate conditions.

Which rooms should a family consider?

At Four Seasons, the Family Suite and Two-Bedroom Chairman Suite accommodate up to 5 adults or 2 adults and 3 children. Upper House’s Penthouse accommodates 4 adults and 2 children. For smaller rooms, I would compare the category’s occupancy and connecting-room options: floor area alone does not guarantee another bed.
