Trying to take in all the shopping opportunities around the hotel can leave you quite breathless. The end of such a day is often spent being revived in the spa or sipping cocktails in one of the bars. But an alternative and a contrast to all the glamour is Hong Kong’s natural beauty; explore the peaks, national parks and many peaceful bays.
Spa
Experts have explored the world for treatments and philosophies to create their own range of effective Time Rituals™. And unlike other spas they offer a range of true healing therapies drawing on Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic philosophies.
There are 8 private treatment rooms including 2 couples´ suites, each with private steam shower and tub. The Spa offers Hong Kong’s first authentic Ayurvedic Sanctuary, a Hydrotherapy Room, a Kneipp pool, Chinese Herbal Steam rooms and a Vichy Shower.
For finishing touches, ladies may wish to visit the adjacent Mandarin Salon, for gentlemen we offer our traditional Mandarin Barber.
Sports
Hong Kong is a fast paced city, business and leisure runs at a frantic rate, sometimes the best way to unwind is with some energetic sport.

Outdoor Activities
Sailing
Sailing is possible from the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club. Should you be interested in joining a yacht you could ask at the club reception or in the bar; on race days there are invariably boats looking for experienced crew who are ready to invite a keen visiting sailor.
Hiking
Hiking along the many trails leading around the island and the New Territories is a rare pleasure with tropical greenery and stunning views across the sea. Head off around the tranquil green reservoirs at Tai Tam, about thirty minutes from the hotel by taxi, or for more vigorous efforts try the steep hills behind Repulse Bay and Wong Nai Chung Gap.
Beaches
Hong Kong is an island and the Southside beaches are easily accessible. Repulse Bay and Stanley beaches are approximately twenty minutes by taxi and have nets, life-guards and many beach restaurants.
