Perched along the Hung Hom waterfront, Kerry Hotel Hong Kong stands as the first brand-new hotel to rise on Kowloon’s harbourfront in nearly two decades—and the city’s original interpretation of the “urban resort.” Interiors conceived by legendary designer André Fu, architecture shaped by the award-winning firm Aedas, the hotel unfolds in a cascade of terraced platforms, layering gardens, pools and open-air lounges one atop the other. The effect is unmistakable: the languid ease of an island resort, transplanted straight into the heart of a restless metropolis.

For anyone planning an event, this kind of spatial language offers something increasingly rare—freedom. No more choosing between indoors and out, no more trading city convenience for a view worth travelling for. Across sixteen floors, seventeen adaptable event spaces await, each suited to a different scale of gathering, from intimate dinners to celebrations hundreds strong. But what truly sets this hotel apart is its outdoor real estate—every terrace, garden and platform facing the harbour, soaked in sea breeze and sunlight, is where the real story unfolds.

Step out onto the hotel’s open-air terrace and the skyline meets an uninterrupted stretch of sky. Here, up to sixty guests can gather beneath the sun by day, and watch the same space transform into a starlit stage by night. String lights hang like a low-slung galaxy, long banquet tables glow under the neon pulse of Victoria Harbour—and in that collision of elegance and ease lies the space’s true magic.

For those seeking something more intimate, the Presidential Suite on the top floor offers an entirely different kind of escape. Spanning 294 square metres with sweeping views of both the harbour and Lion Rock, and complete with its own rooftop terrace, it’s tailor-made for small dinners, close-knit celebrations, or any moment meant only for the people who matter most. When the evening’s festivities wind down, guests can drift seamlessly into Red Sugar, the hotel’s open-air bar, where the party carries on under city lights and sea air well into the night. Together, these spaces hand planners a rare kind of creative license—each event free to be shaped around the personality of the person it celebrates.
