Hong Kong Hilton, Five-star hotel in Central and Western District, Hong Kong
Hong Kong Hilton was a luxury hotel featuring 750 rooms across 26 floors, located near major financial institutions and government buildings in Central. The property offered upscale accommodations at an address surrounded by the city's key economic and administrative centers.
The hotel was built in 1963 on the site of the former Murray Parade Ground and remained Hong Kong Island's only five-star property until its closure in 1995. Its presence over three decades reflected the city's development as an international business destination.
The hotel served as a meeting place for international business professionals and diplomats during Hong Kong's rise as a major financial hub. It represented the cosmopolitan character that defined the city during its period of rapid economic growth.
The location on Queen's Road Central provided convenient access to banking institutions and government offices for business travelers. Today the site is no longer operational as a hotel and exists mainly as a historical landmark in the district.
The property introduced the world's first in-room minibars in 1974, significantly increasing beverage sales for the establishment. This innovation later became a standard feature in hotels worldwide.
