Review: Four Seasons Hong Kong

During my recent visit to Hong Kong, I had the pleasure of staying at the highly regarded Four Seasons Hong Kong. 
The property is widely recognized as one of the top luxury hotels in Hong Kong and one of the leading locations of the Four Seasons chain.
Currently, the hotel is in the midst of a significant renovation, overseeing a complete refurbishment of all 399 guest rooms and public areas. 
In a bid to seek out some of the most prestigious accommodations on Hong Kong Island on this trip, it was only natural that the Four Seasons was at the top of my list.
Four Seasons Hong Kong – Booking
If you’re considering a stay at the Four Seasons Hong Kong, be prepared to pay a premium price. A standard room retails for $ 6,500–7,000 HKD ($1,107–1,191 CAD) per night, with some leeway on either side.
I was fortunate to secure a favourable industry rate for this particular stay.
Four Seasons doesn’t have a traditional loyalty program with points and elite status, but you can still enjoy added value when booking through Four Seasons Preferred Partner . This exclusive program provides complimentary breakfast for two and a $100 (USD) property credit, among other benefits, at no additional cost.
Furthermore, unlike comparable programs such as Virtuoso or Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts , Four Seasons Preferred Partner gives priority to their own reservations for upgrades, early check-ins, and late check-outs.
Lastly, the Preferred Partner advantages can be combined with all promotional rates, including prepaid, promotional, flexible, and fully refundable rates.

A brief 15-minute stroll from the Four Seasons Hong Kong are the vibrant districts of Lan Kwai Fong and Soho, renowned for their dynamic nightlife, as well as an eclectic array of dining options and cafés.
The hotel is situated on the western side of International Finance Centre (IFC), providing direct access to the massive shopping complex.
Covered walkways connect the hotel to the Central and Star Ferry piers, as well as the Macau ferry terminal, which are a 10-minute and 20-minute walk away, respectively.
Using the walkway, you can also reach the Central and Hong Kong MTR stations within the same amount of time, providing easy access to the Island Line, Tsuen Wan Line, Tung Chung Line, and Airport Express.
Given the hotel’s proximity to a series of transportation options, it’s an ideal base from which to explore key attractions in Hong Kong like Victoria Peak, Hong Kong Museum of History, and Kowloon Park, all of which can be reached via Central MTR Station.
To get to the hotel from the airport, you can take the Airport Express train to Hong Kong MTR Station, followed by the Four Seasons’s complimentary car service.

Alternatively, you can access the hotel via IFC Mall from the MTR station, though navigating multiple floors with luggage might be challenging.
For those arriving from Mainland China, take the East Rail Line to Admiralty MTR Station, then switch trains for a one-stop ride to Central MTR Station. From there, you can access IFC Mall or use the hotel’s car service to reach the Four Seasons.
Four Seasons Hong Kong – Check-in
Immediately, The Four Seasons Hong Kong’s curved façade commands attention from a distance, soaring high with glass windows and elegant, sleek grey slates. A long driveway takes you up to the hotel’s porté-cochère, where a small water feature sits in the middle.
Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly by the attentive hotel staff who promptly offered to assist with my luggage and directed me towards the check-in desks. 
The hotel entrance consists of a series of floor-to-ceiling windows that seamlessly blend together, creating an illusion that makes it difficult to distinguish where the doors end and the windows begin. 
Four Seasons Hong Kong – Entrance
To the left of the entrance, the hotel is emblazoned with the Four Seasons logo in distinctive black lettering.
A secondary entrance to the hotel is accessible directly via the IFC mall, on the fourth floor.

Heading inside, I was met by a dramatic glass atrium lobby in the Four Seasons signature opulent style. Light poured into the space, accentuating the lengthy marble columns and the lobby’s newly refurbished interior.
Four Seasons Hong Kong – Lobby lounge
Towering glass windows extend stunning vistas of Hong Kong’s iconic harbour, one of the Four Seasons primary draws, and one which extends to its guest rooms.
An elevated marble stage plays host to ample seating arrangements, ranging from plush sofas to contemporary leather two-person seating.

Anchoring the lobby is a central staircase that adds a touch of elegance and grandeur to the space. Adjacent is the Gallery, the lobby café.
I appreciated the use of metal partitions in the space, lending a subtle separation between the lobby and the Gallery, yet maintaining an open concept that invited exploration.

To the left of the entrance are a striking set of marble-clad check-in desks, with a golden slated backdrop.
I was welcomed by the friendly front desk associate who quickly completed my check-in and confirmed my reservation in a Deluxe Harbour View Room with twin beds.

I collected my room keys and navigated my way to the elevator lobby, making my way up to the Deluxe Harbour View Room.

Upon entering the Deluxe Harbour View Room, I immediately noticed its generous size. At almost 500 square feet, this room is significantly larger than the average hotel room found in Hong Kong and offers ample space for an lower-level room category.
A brief foyer leads you into the bedroom, showcasing sleek, custom furnishings and modern finishes as a result of the hotel’s recent makeover.

The fusion of contemporary and Asian styles is elegantly executed, thanks to the soft neutral hues, dark wood accents, and silk-panelled walls. This harmonious blend creates an inviting luxury that feels like a home away from home.
Positioned on the left side of the room are two comfortable twin beds. The Four Seasons offers customizable options for the firmness of the mattress, as well as a range of pillows to choose from – an example of the level of personalized service that you can expect here at the Four Seasons.

To the right is a generously sized closet with ample storage room and a lovely Chinese-inspired painting on the doors, adding an artistic touch to the room.

An impressive 46-inch flat-screen TV is wall-mounted on the right-hand wall, optimally positioned for viewing from the bed.

Adjacent to this is a multi-functional work-dining table area, accompanied by plush leather armchairs. An impressive welcome amenity of Hong Kong milk tea and dim sum snacks was waiting for us at the table.

Beyond the seating area, geometric open shelving in lightly polished wood is adorned with glassware and ornaments, for a subtle connection between the floor and walls.
Heading back towards the foyer, a beautifully lit alcove plays host to a well-stocked minibar, pantry, and glassware, while a Nespresso coffee maker is tucked away in a separate cabinet.

The bathroom features a built-in LCD screen television, so you can stay on top of the news or watch your favourite show while soaking in the bathtub.
The toilet is housed within their own separate chambers for added privacy.

The rooms at the Four Seasons are equipped with luxurious L’Occitane bath amenities, whilst the suites benefit from an upgrade to more premium Bvlgari bath amenities.
The crown jewel of the Deluxe Harbour View Room is, without a doubt, the floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of Victoria Harbour. I found myself gazing out in awe many times throughout our stay.

(While many hotels on Hong Kong Island claim to have impressive harbour views, the Four Seasons surpasses them with its unrivalled proximity to the harbour, offering truly spectacular views that no other property on the island can match.)
It’s worth mentioning that the tier below the Deluxe Harbour View Room has the same room layout, but faces the city and The Peak instead, providing a different perspective of the bustling metropolis.
Overall, the Deluxe Harbour View Room is very impressive, with a modern in-room aesthetic that balances Chinese-inspired elements. Moreover, I appreciated the luxurious touches synonymous with the Four Seasons brand, such as the elevated welcome treat and luxurious bath amenities.
With unrivalled views of Victoria Harbour and Kowloon, this room serves as a luxurious but cozy home in Hong Kong, and would be a wonderful choice to book or to seek an upgrade to as part of a Preferred Partner booking.
Four Seasons Hong Kong – Superior Harbour View Suite
Naturally, I wanted to tour some of the other room-types available here at the Four Seasons Hong Kong.
Nestled in prime corner locations of the Four Seasons, with only one suite perched on each floor, the Superior Harbour View Suite offers a touch of exclusivity.
Encompassing an expansive 732 square feet, the suite boasts a distinct living area, outfitted with an L-shaped sofa, versatile work and dining table space adorned with comfortable leather chairs, and an inviting circular chaise longue.
