The Best Hotels and Resorts in Asia: The Gold List 2025
"The Peninsula Hong Kong is one of those very special hotels whose name causes former guests to go a bit misty-eyed at its mere mention. Since opening on the Kowloon waterfront in 1928, The Pen (as it is affectionately known) has been beloved by both visitors and the people of Hong Kong. And it’s still the place to be—ot just for the sense of history, but because it is simply fabulous. Pull into the driveway in one of the hotel’s 14 Rolls-Royce Phantoms. Take your pick from nine superb bars and restaurants. Have a Margy’s Monte-Carlo facial at the spa, then retire to calming dark veneer and champagne-toned rooms with dazzling harbor views and be attended to by some of the most thoughtful staff in the business. Hong Kong and The Peninsula: It’s impossible to imagine one without the other. From $540. —Lee Cobaj" - CNT Editors
