Rosewood Hong Kong
A Tony Chi tower above Victoria Harbour
Rosewood Hong Kong is a luxury hotel in Kowloon, Hong Kong holding 3 MICHELIN Keys; a place on The World's 50 Best Hotels (No. 2 in 2023, No. 3 in 2024, No. 1 in 2025). It ranks 9.28 out of 10 on the finehotels.world prestige index, which is built only from public award data. Every award recorded here is published by the body that grants it, and this page links to the listing that evidences it.
Rosewood Hong Kong occupies the Kowloon waterfront at Victoria Dockside, 18 Salisbury Road, in Tsim Sha Tsui. Opened in 2019, it fills a 65-storey tower with 413 rooms above Victoria Harbour. The address is part of an arts, design, and conceptual retail district, so this is a city hotel with a distinctly public setting, rather than a retreat that asks Hong Kong to stay outside. Kohn Pedersen Fox handled the architecture; Taiwanese-born designer Tony Chi gives the interiors their defining tension, pairing old-school opulence with sleek contemporary lines.
The hotel’s dining program is unusually broad, with eleven concepts including CHAAT, The Legacy House, DarkSide, HENRY, and Asaya Kitchen. That range makes the property useful for a short stay as well as a self-contained weekend, particularly for travelers who prefer choices within the building. Asaya Spa by Guerlain occupies the sixth floor and combines treatments and wellness therapies with a nature-connected approach; Asaya Kitchen shares the spa and pool level. Service is a major part of the appeal, with repeated guest accounts praising attentive staff, while harbor-view rooms are the obvious choice for the setting. Three MICHELIN Keys and consecutive World’s 50 Best placements, including No. 1 in 2025, place Rosewood Hong Kong among the city’s most scrutinized luxury addresses.
