Who would have imagined that a luxury hotel in one of Asia’s most bustling cities could embrace the charm of small-town hospitality? Thankfully for its guests, Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong is known for its long-standing tradition of exceptional service, having opened its doors in 1963. Guests may even be greeted by the same staff member who welcomed them years ago.

The hotel’s dining options remain as timeless as ever, with The Krug Room continuing to be one of the city’s most exclusive private dining experiences, while Man Wah has been serving exquisite Cantonese cuisine since 1968. Despite its rich history, the hotel is far from outdated, offering everything from the ultra-stylish 3,143-square-foot Mandarin Suite to elegant touches like Diptyque bathroom toiletries.

Nearly as iconic as the hotel itself, Captain’s Bar is a beloved institution in the city, a popular after-work spot for both guests and locals for decades. For ultimate relaxation, The Mandarin Spa offers some of the most indulgent treatments available anywhere.
