Originally designed by celebrated designer Philippe Starck, it celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2014 with a brand new image and dynamic revitalisation by his protégés at world renowned YOO Hotels.
With 32 luxurious studios and 24 stylish, spacious suites, the hotel was voted best boutique hotel in Asia by Conde Nast Traveller and ranked among top five boutique hotels in Greater China by The Independent in London. In both 2012 and 2013, users of travel website TripAdvisor voted it one of the trendiest hotels in Hong Kong and China. The hotel also earned TripAdvisor’s coveted ‘Certificate of Excellence’ (2011 – 2016) award for establishments that consistently achieve outstanding traveller reviews on the TripAdvisor website. In 2015, the hotel is awarded “Golden Circle Award” by Agoda.com which recognises hotels that work closely with Agoda.com to go above and beyond the standard internet offerings. The hotel is also rewarded for the third consecutive years since 2014 as Smart Travel Asia ‘Top 10 Boutique Hotel’ and ranked the 3rd in Asia in 2016.
