Asian-style tapas and contemporary cocktails will be served on the roof terrace, where fire pits and casual seating will create an atmosphere of stylish luxury.

The hotel will also feature one of the largest ballrooms in the city at 930m², complemented by an additional four meeting rooms.

An ESPA spa is located on 116th floor and consists of nine deluxe treatment rooms and three couples suites each with floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic view.. The hotel also features a fully equipped fitness centre and indoor pool on the 118th floor.

With direct connections to Hong Kong International Airport in 20 minutes and Central Hong Kong in five minutes, The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong is due to open in December 2010
