A PolyU Hospitality Showcase in the Hong Kong Skyline
From Pak Sui Yuen to Hotel ICON
The hotel occupies the former site of Pak Sui Yuen, Hong Kong Polytechnic University’s staff quarters, and its concept is tied to the university’s hospitality and design ecosystem. It functions as a showcase for hospitality design, service innovation and event development rather than as a conventional independent luxury property.
Rocco Design and CL3’s Contemporary Framework
Rocco Design Architects Ltd. created the harbour-facing high-rise, while CL3 Architects designed the guestrooms, Silverbox Ballroom and lobby grand staircase. The 2011 project received the Hong Kong Institute of Architects Medal of the Year of Hong Kong, and public areas emphasize light, modern materials and visual links to the harbour.
The Lobby Staircase and Timeless Lounge
The lobby’s grand staircase forms a central arrival feature, while the Timeless lounge provides a lounge-style common area associated with the pool deck, spa and gym. Upper-floor and harbour-oriented spaces reinforce the property’s design-led identity.
Harbour Views, Designed Guestrooms and a Vivienne Tam Suite
262 Rooms and Suites with City or Harbour Outlooks
The accommodation collection comprises 262 rooms and suites, described through spacious layouts, floor-to-ceiling windows and extensive harbour or city views. Triple-room formats and connecting-room potential provide additional configuration options beyond standard room layouts.
The 80-Square-Metre Designer Suite
The Designer Suite by Vivienne Tam occupies the 27th floor and measures 80 square metres. Its named designer association gives the suite a distinct identity within the wider accommodation collection.
Deep Soaking Baths and Design-Led Furnishings
Bathrooms combine deep soaking bathtubs with separate walk-in rain showers. The Karuselli chair is a notable furnishing detail, while club rooms and suites add Blu-ray players and Nespresso coffee machines.
Upper-Floor Dining, Poolside Drinks and Private Meals
Above & Beyond on the 28th Floor
Above & Beyond is located on the 28th floor and contributes to the hotel’s skyline-oriented dining identity. Hotel materials specifically link the venue with club-room and suite guests.
