PB hotel design editorial

At the heart of Hong Kong's Pacific Place development, where Admiralty's financial towers converge above the city's underground transit arteries, a curved 56-storey tower completed in 1991 rises with a profile that distinguishes itself through sheer verticality and massing. Island Shangri-La Hong Kong was conceived as the anchor of Cesar Pelli's masterplan for the Swire Properties complex, its elliptical curtain-wall facade stepping back from the podium in a gesture that simultaneously addresses the harbour and the park. The tower holds 565 rooms across its upper floors, and at its heart hangs the Great Lobby Atrium — a soaring interior space clad with what is reputedly the largest Chinese silk painting in the world, a 16-storey work depicting mountainous landscapes of southern China. The interiors carry the considered formality of late-colonial Hong Kong luxury, updated through subsequent renovations that introduced chinoiserie wall panels — visible in the harbour-view rooms as hand-painted tropical murals in muted blues and greens — alongside crystal chandeliers, dark-stained timber millwork with brass detailing, and tufted leather headboards set against sage-green padded walls. The outdoor pool terrace, framed by mature trees and with I.M. Pei's Bank of China Tower cutting a diamond geometry into the skyline behind, anchors the property at mid-tower. The bar interior deploys cobalt Murano-style pendant lanterns, lacquered dark wood, damask wallcovering, and curved plasterwork soffits in a vocabulary that draws equally from Shanghai Art Deco and classic Cantonese club tradition.

Island Shangri-La, Hong Kong Reviews

"Location: Directly on top of Pacific Place mall and Admiralty station. Super close to Central! Atmosphere: Old, but elegant. Very clean and iconic Rooms: We stayed at a themed room on the 45th kids floor and it was whimsical, clean and had complete amenities. Dyson hairdryer too, with all you can eat meals at the common pantry. Plus 4pm there's free ice cream! There is also an area where you can borrow all kinds of kids amenities such as UV sterilizer, baby bottles, stroller etc. Value: Our room package came with buffer breakfast, themed (with slide and harbour view) overall it was expensive but a very worthy experience. Noise level: since we were at the kids floor, can hear the shrieks and laughter or crying of kids outside the main floor. But as a mom I don't mind. Also our room was near the elevator so could hear the toy train going around. Service: we were assisted early on by the Family experience team Joy and Ella during the evening and Yoko + Raya in the morning. All 4 ladies were so attentive and even remembered my child's name. Making her feel comfortable always. Also at buffet breakfast, service was top notch, fast clean up for dirty plates and fast refill of the dimsum"

"The Island Shangri-La IS our home from home and for good reason. The staff are amazing, special mention to Sarah, Chloe and Nicolas and his team at Petrus and to Kitty and Clarence at the Spa. We enjoyed an incredible dinner at Petrus, followed by breakfast, again at Petrus with the most incredible views towards Kowloon. Our room was lovely, newly renovated harbor view horizon room. Shower is especially good, it really is. We enjoyed drinks at the club lounge and the wonderful Chloe looked after us brilliantly. As we live in the new territories a stay on the island is truly a mini vacation, and the ISL is our go to option. Amazing property, we love it, will keep going back."

"Great location, Great atmosphere. The hotel is interconnected with pacific place shopping mall, so everything is within walking distance. Public areas are very clean and well maintained. Hotel staffs are nice and welcoming. Room service quality have improved a lot since our last visit. Our kids love their caravan room on the 45th floor, and will surely come back in the future!!"

"The location was very convenient and central. There are many nice restaurants inside and closed to the hotel. The staff were very friendly and professional. We were warmly welcomed by Gigi Yeung who did the check-in for us and recommended us the family room due to our 3 year old daughter. For family with young kids I definitely recommend the 45th kids floor. It’s a paradise for kids with lovely guest rooms, the common area “hangout” with cafe and play area as well as snacks for all. All staff members on the floor were very friendly, special thanks to Ella, Yoyo and Steven. The breakfast was delicious, they provided a huge variety of food and were kids-friendly as well, Umi always welcomed my daughter with a big smile and cute presents."
