Hong Kong, a special administrative region of China that was held as a colony of Great Britain until 1997, has long been known as a major financial center of the East. Under the mantra “one country, two systems,” the city operates under a capitalist economic system independent of mainland China and has historically been a regularly visited destination for executives in international finance and trade. Yet Hong Kong has a storied history and awe-inspiring attractions to entertain any visitor.
A jet charter company can ensure that frequent business trips to Hong Kong are efficient, comfortable and even relaxing for on-the-go executives and whoever may be accompanying them to China’s laissez-faire economic center.
The Peninsula Hong Kong – The oldest hotel in the city, The Peninsula Hong Kong carries the cachet of the Peninsula brand while also having a noteworthy history. Founded in 1928, it is the flagship Peninsula property and was intended to be “the finest hotel east of Suez.” Today, that luxury means travelers can be greeted at the airport by one of the hotel’s fleet of Rolls-Royce Phantoms, or for an even quicker arrival, the hotel’s helicopter can transport you from the airport to the hotel roof in 20 minutes.
The hotel has nine restaurants and lounges for entertaining, including some of the most well respected dining institutions in the city. Gaddi’s is famous for its French haute cuisine in a formal dining setting, and there are also Swiss, Chinese and Japanese offerings to choose from. Experience the British colonial era with Afternoon Tea at the Peninsula — at The Lobby, tea is served daily “in total grandeur.” Simply, the flagship Peninsula has all the amenities business travelers will expect from a luxury hotel along with a tradition of impeccable service that has made the hotel a premier destination for almost a century.
