Last week at HICAP — the 19th Annual Hotel Investment Conference for Asia-Pacific (HICAP) in Hong Kong — it wasn’t the host property that took the limelight but the brand new W Hong Kong.  

Featuring a striking design, large guestrooms and futuristic feel, the 393-room W Hong Kong was the talk of the conference that attracted several hundred of the world’s leading hoteliers, owners and suppliers.

The W Hong Kong is turning heads

“With our brand of non-traditional luxury, we take pride in creating emotional connections with our guests by offering them sensory experiences while providing them insider access and an escape from the mundane into everything that is now and wow,” said W Hong Kong general manager, Damon Page.

W Hong Kong has fashioned its event space for medium-sized groups seeking the highest level in audiovisual technology and facilities.

It offers more than 10,000 square-feet of function and pre-function space and a selection of eight meeting rooms, as well as new variations of the W brand’s signature Sensory Setups and Recess activities.
