The Peninsula Hong Kong
Hong Kong
The 'Grande Dame of the Far East', opened in 1928 in Tsim Sha Tsui and still one of Asia's most celebrated hotels.
Why we recommend it
Few hotels carry as much history as The Peninsula. Opened in 1928, it has welcomed generations of travellers, and its colonnaded lobby, where afternoon tea is served to live music, remains one of the most famous rooms in Asia.
Its fleet of green Rolls-Royces, its restaurants, including Gaddi's and Felix, and its harbour views make it an institution rather than simply a hotel.
Location
The hotel stands on Salisbury Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, facing Victoria Harbour, a short walk from the Star Ferry, the Avenue of Stars and the West Kowloon Cultural District.
