Rosewood Hong Kong

What We Think

When a hotel’s nickname is “The Vertical Estate,” you know it’s going to be next-level amazing. And it is, literally. Take the 40th floor “Manor Club,” where guests can go for all manner of VIP coddling, any hour of the day (yes, there’s a pristine craft cocktail bar, shoe shines and 24-hour butler service).

Tucked into a channel-tufted settee, you smile as waiters buzz around you proffering the delicacies of pastry and confectionery trolleys—feeling quite like a butterfly yourself.
