The Hari Hong Kong Launches Compelling Wan Chai By Night Experience

 The Hari Hong Kong’s new after-dark tour casts Wan Chai, one of Hong Kong’s oldest and most eccentric districts, in a whole new light.







Reaching 30 storeys on lively Lockhart Road, in the heart of Wan Chai, the elegant hotel has joined forces with licensed guide and travel content creator @explore_hongkong to roll out the private ‘Best of Wan Chai at Night Tour – Explore Hong Kong like a Local’.


The roughly 2.5-hour experience, on offer from 5pm, imparts the history and stories of Wan Chai and neighbouring Causeway Bay as well as fascinating insights into Hong Kong’s Feng Shui.


Tour highlights include partaking in ‘Villain Hitting’, a form of Chinese folk sorcery, and visiting a wet market, street markets and a 140-year-old tea shop. Participants cross one of Hong Kong’s busiest streets, sample different local snacks, ride the 100-year-old Ding Ding Tram, take a close-up look of iconic skyscrapers and soak up panoramic views of Kowloon and Hong Kong. 


“Edgy, dynamic and diverse, we love our neighbourhood and community and this remarkable new experience reveals why,” The Hari Hong Kong’s General Manager Edward E. Snoeks said. “Each and every attraction on our new tour peels back Wan Chai’s layers, connecting guests with its rich past and exciting present.”

Once a small fishing village, Wan Chai morphed into a bustling urban area following British colonisation in 1841. Now a hub of cultural and commercial activity, Wan Chai is renowned for its historical landmarks, street markets, skyscrapers and blend of Eastern and Western influences.

The Hari Hong Kong bears the stamp of acclaimed British interior designer Tara Bernerd, comprising 210 guest rooms, including three signature rooftop suites, with views overlooking Wan Chai, Causeway Bay, The Peak and Victoria Harbour.


Authentic Italian ristorante Lucciola, defined by a bold palette of amber and green; contemporary Japanese restaurant Zoku, featuring a remarkable ceiling of angled timber slats in origami-like forms; alfresco terrace bar aptly named The Terrace; and The Lounge, an all-day sitting area adorned with a compelling collection of art and books, make for the hotel’s diverse dining landscape. 


The sister property of The Hari London, The Hari Hong Kong has a deep connection with art, culture, and its community, spearheading the likes of The Hari Art Prize in support of emerging artists and The Hari Chronicles to foster ongoing conversations about art, design and culture.


The globe’s leading scientific benchmarking, certification and advisory group for sustainable travel has awarded The Hari Hong Kong ‘EarthCheck Benchmarked Bronze status’ for its host of sustainability measures.
