Although a Chinese city, it is a Special Administrative Region, which follows directly from it having being a British colony. When it was handed back to the Chinese in 1997, part of the agreement was to allow the city to retain many of its former qualities, both in terms of governance and finance. As a result, it is city which has a great degree of autonomy and one which has never ceased to be a melting pot of Eastern and Western culture and heritage. In one way or another five star Hong Kong hotels touch on this melding of East with West. It is not always an immediately discernible quality, since the modern world's changing cultures have begun to borrow so much from each other, incorporating nuances of style and tradition into previously more distinct identities. These luxury hotels generally observe a reverence of style from many ages and make it something exciting and new. Naturally, as one of Asia's primary metropolises and centers of business and industry, it is a city which is visited by many executives. As such, all of the five star Hong Kong hotels have exceptional business facilities. It is a city which never sleeps, so not only will the demanding modern executive have just about every service and facility at their disposal, but they will be able to access secretarial and other vital services around the clock. It goes without saying, that all those imperative aspects of 21st century convenience, like fast internet connections, audio-visual equipment and conferencing facilities, are supplied as a matter of course in all the top ranking establishments. While its city which thrives on business and the people who make it happen, it's only a small part of its eclectic make-up and vast charm. Many come to simply enjoy the myriad pleasures of metropolises which has seamlessly integrated an inordinate number of contrasting elements into something of local identity. A haven of exotic delights and cultural activities, it is not surprising that it is one of the globe's top tourist destinations.

One of the great pleases of staying at any of the five star establishments, is to sample the cuisine.

Whether you find your new favorite morsel at a local food stall, or are in the gilt-edge dining room of a sophisticated contemporary palace of flavor adventures, no one should forgo a visit without sampling the local dim sum.
