Launched in 1946 by Pan American World Airlines in Belém, Brazil, InterContinental has grown to be recognized as one of the world's top hotels. InterContinental Hong Kong is renowned for its waterfront location on Kowloon Harbour with stunning views of Hong Kong Island. The hotel is ideally located close to Kowloon's business, entertainment and shopping districts.
The hotel has more than 500 well-appointed guest rooms and luxurious Presidential Suites, each with a spacious bathroom. The classic rooms are designed with clean lines and Asian décor to set off the stunning sea views of Victoria Harbour. The Executive Room is equipped with a more spacious workspace with basic amenities such as a curved desk and iPod docking station, providing more convenient equipment services for business travelers. Room prices range from HK$2,500 to HK$4,000, which is a good value for money.
The luxurious Harbour View Suites are decorated in the golden colours of the royal court, with a daybed in front of the window for guests to enjoy the breathtaking views of Victoria Harbour and the other side. There are three themed suites, including the Presidential Suite, which covers a total area of 700 square meters, including a two-storey lobby, a midday bedroom, a living room, a dining room, a kitchen, a gymnasium and a 250-square-meter terrace garden surrounded by sea views. What's even more special is that the suite's garden is equipped with an infinity outdoor Jacuzzi, which at first glance looks like it is connected to Victoria Harbour. Both the Garden Suite and the CEO Garden Suite feature a large balcony garden with views of Victoria Harbour. The price of the three premium packages starts at HK$20,000 per night.
The world-renowned, award-winning restaurant is what makes InterContinental Hong Kong a name for itself. The two-Michelin-starred restaurant Xin Tu Xuan offers high-end Cantonese cuisine. The refurbished restaurant continues the overall design with a jade theme, with a large illuminated wall of lights from behind at the main entrance, using the jade tableware of Hin Tu Xuan as a component to connect the past and future of the restaurant. Awarded a Michelin Guide star in 2015, The Steak House opened in 1982 and renovated in 2005. The restaurant retains the only charcoal grill in Hong Kong and serves the finest beef from the United States and around the world, accompanied by 12 homemade sauces and 8 natural salts.
