Cover St Regis Hong Kong
Are staycations the new slumber party? The short answer is, yes. Pack a weekend bag and get your friends together for a mini getaway—it's like that Bangkok trip you had planned, minus having to go through immigration

St Regis, Hong Kong

Despite its convenient Wan Chai location, there’s something blissfully intimate and peaceful about St Regis, Hong Kong—making it a fine place to get together with friends and disappear into a bubble of luxury. 

For groups, we recommend The St Regis Suite, Metropolitan Suite, Governor's Suite or the Presidential Suite. But all rooms come with a spacious sitting area that’s perfect for enjoying a meal and drinks while looking over harbour and city views.

Alternatively, get glammed up and soak in the hotel's classic-but-contemporary design via its well curated food and beverage outlets. Whether it's a drink at the St Regis Bar, a retro-chic respite that connects to an elegant terrace, or The Drawing Room which anchors the awe-inspiring lobby, where international fare and afternoon tea is served. At Chinese restaurant, Run, a five-star dim sum feast or peking duck dinner shared amongst friends is always a welcome idea. 

Tatler tip: If restrictions on swimming pools are lifted by the time you make your booking, get to the pool early to secure one of their stylish cabanas. It's the perfect place to laze away the day with a bottle of chilled rose.

K11 Artus

Designed as more of a residence than a hotel room, complete with living and dining areas—and a deck that opens up to killer views of Hong Kong Island's iconic skyscrapers—a staycation at K11 Artus feels like an opulent night in at home with friends. 

Head downstairs to the MoMa Design Store to shop for quirky, art-inspired games, then head back to your room and put on your robes (which the K11 Artus team can customise with your initials) and order in; you can order from any restaurant in K11 Musea via your TV and have it delivered. You can also arrange to enjoy the renowned afternoon tea set from Artisan Lounge in the comfort of your room. 

Comfort, convenience and a dose of culture; what's not to love?

Ritz Carlton, Hong Kong

The Ritz Carlton, Hong Kong is never a bad idea. And now, the world's highest hotel is offering the ultimate girls' night with their Ladies' Night In package. Along with a room upgrade, champagne and chocolate-dipped strawberries, the indulgent package  includes The Ritz-Carlton’s famous afternoon tea and exclusive in-store experiences at BVLGARI and Vivienne Tam, as well as a personalised make-up service at Dior.

Up the luxe factor with a visit to Almas Caviar Bar or Michelin-starred Italian restaurant, Tosca di Angelo. And with spas back in business, it's hard to do better than The Ritz-Carlton Spa.
