Rosewood Hong Kong opens its doors – figures to know about the most expensive hotel in Hong Kong
by Aude Camus 
 
Rosewood Hong Kong, the new global flagship of Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, just opened its doors in the heart of the Victoria Dockside arts and design district on the shores of Victoria Harbour. 
 
With Hong Kong evolving from a business and financial centre to become a true global cultural capital, I wanted to create an iconic property that not only showcases the city’s rich history but also reflects its bright future,” says Sonia Cheng, Rosewood Hotel Group Chief Executive Officer. “Rosewood Hong Kong sets bold new benchmarks for design, guest experience, cuisine, and culture. Our ambition is to create a new world standard for ultra-luxury hospitality and a focal point of the vibrant Hong Kong lifestyle, reflecting its incredible dynamism, style and diversity.”  
 
I was lucky enough to attend the official unveiling of the hotel on Monday March 18 and wanted to share a few figures with you so that you get a better idea of how unique, expensive, luxurious (and a lot of other superlatives) this hotel is.
