The Peninsula Hong Kong has welcomed a fleet of six new Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended saloons to its transport fleet. The vehicles will be in service commencing late May, offering hotel guests a new generation of luxurious transport – one which blends the iconic heritage of Rolls-Royce with cutting-edge technology.

Since some flights from Sydney, in particular, arrive in Hong Kong the next day around breakfast time, or even before, thank goodness for The Peninsula’s company-wide welcome. Any time in, and any time out.

Hark back to the past in Hong Kong. Yes, it is coming back to life again. The Marco Polo German Bierfest may have been cancelled but Rugby Sevens is still scheduled for 4-6 November. And as restrictions are being removed there are many financial gatherings planned as frustrated global CEOs can now, after over two years, meet their Asia counterparts in person.

A collaboration between The Peninsula Hong Kong and Simpson Yacht Charter has delivered a new range of land and sea packages for hotel guests.

You glide rather than walk when arriving here, at this Kowloon icon, The Peninsula Hong Kong. The Rolls-Royce, in that dark Peninsula Green that aficionados know so well, purrs up to the front door. The reception party is never overbearing – say three people, immaculately attired in black and white and not a single hair out of place – welcomes you, escorts you through a lobby soaring to the top of its 20-metre-high columns. You are whisked past front desk, and you turn left to the elevators before you realise your Rimowa wheelie has been kidnapped.
