The Peninsula Hong Kong
The Grande Dame of the Far East, with harbour views and its famous afternoon tea.
The Peninsula has been Hong Kong's grand hotel since 1928, and it still sets the standard. Rooms and suites balance contemporary design with Art Deco heritage, and the best face Victoria Harbour. Afternoon tea in the lobby is an institution. The pool, with views across the harbour, and the spa are both excellent, and the hotel's green Rolls-Royces are part of the legend.
Booked through me, your stay at The Peninsula Hong Kong includes The Peninsula PenClub benefits.

What people love

- Rooms facing Victoria Harbour and the pool with its harbour view are frequent favourites.
- Afternoon tea in The Lobby, the spa, and the hotel's restaurants and bars are consistent highlights.
- The Tsim Sha Tsui location is close to the Star Ferry and MTR, and airport transfers make arrival easy.
Watch-outs
- The Lobby is busy with visitors and queues form for afternoon tea, so ask about priority seating for hotel guests.
- Some rooms feel dated and views vary a lot, so book a harbour view category if the view matters.
- Breakfast can mean a wait at busy times, and room service and dining are priced high.
