Regent Hong Kong reveals first ‘glimpse’ of new rooms

The property, located on Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour, has been undergoing a major refurbishment over the past two years under the stewardship of designer Chi Wing Lo, who is taking on his first hotel project.

Regent Hotels & Resorts, which is part of IHG Hotels & Resorts, has released images of the Hong Kong property’s new rooms overlooking the iconic harbour. They feature an open plan layout with several rooms offering a sliding door to reveal harbour views from a freestanding bathtub.

Tom Rowntree, vice president of luxury & lifestyle brands for IHG Hotels & Resorts, said: “This is a moment - a true moment - for both the Regent brand and also especially for Regent Hong Kong. 

“Chi Wing Lo has encapsulated the Regent vision to create something different and unique – a design that can represent Hong Kong and create a sense of serenity, contrast and balance within the city. Regent Hong Kong is a true flagship for the brand.”

The renovated property will offer a range of restaurants including The Steak House, Harbourside buffet experience and a lobby lounge. The existing Yan Toh Heen Michelin-starred restaurant, which has remained open during the renovation, is also to return to its original name of Lai Ching Heen.
