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.

"Dear hotel team, thank you sooo much for a great 4 days. Nothing was too much and your breakfast was one of the best if not the best we ever had. The service in the club lounge was outstanding with a shout out to the staff. Again thank you."

"Our family had a wonderful stay at Island Shangri-La. From check-in to departure, the service was consistently attentive and professional. A special thank you to Ella and Emily at the family floor. They were always cheerful, proactive and genuinely welcoming. Despite how busy the Hangout could get, they consistently went out of their way to assist guests (eps the lil ones) with a smile. Their warmth made a real difference to our family's stay. As a Muslim family, we really appreciated the hotel's efforts to cater to our needs. Breakfast offered a good variety, and we were pleasantly surprised to find halal congee, which is quite rare in Hong Kong. It would be even better if the breakfast could include more halal versions of local Hong Kong favourites, such as dim sum or egg tarts, to give Muslim guests an opportunity to experience more of the local cuisine. We stayed in the Garden room, which was comfortable and perfect for families. Our child especially enjoyed the children's play area, where new friends were made, and looked forward to the activities organised by Steven each day. Our other suggestion would be to add another washing machine to the guest laundry on the famuly floor. It was often in use and occasionally malfunctioned, making it difficult for us to do the laundry at times. The swimming pool is large and child-friendly, with attentive lifeguards providing added peace of mind. The Hangout was also a great family space, offering child-friendly bites pastries, drinks and other thoughtful amenities throughout the day. The hotel's location is excellent, with direct access to Pacific Place and just a short walk to Hong Kong Park, which is a hidden gem. Overall, we had an enjoyable stay and would gladly return. Island Shangri-La is an excellent choice for families, and we particularly appreciated the thoughtful touches. When we left Ella asked if we would be back. "100 percent yes!""
