The complex includes two podium floors for contemporary retail, lifestyle and entertainment facilities to support the surrounding office and residential buildings. A transport interchange within the building offers easy access to the surrounding areas including the upcoming cruise terminal in the bay.
The 15-storey hotel will feature 698 guestrooms with a minimum size of 32 square metres; most offering unobstructed Victoria Harbour views. The hotel facilities will also include three restaurants, a 1000 square metre health club plus a 50 by 25 metres outdoor swimming pool facing the harbour. The meeting and banqueting facilities will include a 700-square-metre ballroom.
“We are delighted to have been awarded this prime location on Victoria Harbour,” said Greg Dogan, president and chief executive officer of Shangri-La International Hotel Management Limited. “The area around Hung Hom Bay is going through a redevelopment and with the facilities offered at the new complex we will be able to offer valuable amentities to back the surounding community.”
