As it starts preparing for its grand reopening in June 2023, Regent Hong Kong has shared the first glimpse of its stunning transformation.
Set on the edge of the majestic Victoria Harbour, the legendary hotel called on visionary Hong Kong-born, Milan-based designer Chi Wing Lo to create a design language integrating storied heritage, serene aesthetics, and the Regent signature Beauty of Contrasts.
Regent Hotels & Resorts joined the IHG Hotels & Resorts luxury and lifestyle collection in 2018. For two years, work was undertaken to reimagine a new era for the brand as a storied and heritage luxury icon, building on its founding ambition to take modern luxury to new heights. Regent Hong Kong brings these new brand foundations to life through daring design, innovative restaurants and bars and immersive experiences underpinned by service that works behind the scenes to create an endless sense of calm to enable uplifting experiences.
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. The aura of the new Regent Hong Kong, its genius loci, has the magic to distinguish an urban oasis from a soundproof chamber, a retreat from a lodging, a haven from a hotel… 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.”
