Le Meridien Hong Kong, Cyberport will close for around six months from next week, to allow for “a major facelift” of the hotel.
The Marriott property will close on April 20, with a targeted reopening date of November 2021. The renovation works will take in the hotel’s 170 rooms and suites, as well as restaurant and bar facilities, and meeting spaces.
Le Meridien Hong Kong, Cyberport is located on the south side of Hong Kong between Pok Fu Lam Reservoir and Victoria Peak.
Hong Kong-based architecture, design and construction firm ALT-254 will oversee the works, with the redesign set to take on “a sleek and elegant twist to the mid-century modern style, combining muted tones for relaxation and accents where highlighted moments are desired, aimed to deliver an effortless harmony between the interior experiences and the surrounding nature”.
The hotel also said that artwork will be displayed “through a combination of video art, digital print, and virtual reality activation through the use of smartphone cameras”.
Commenting on the news Mr Pierre-Antoine Penicaud, general manager of the hotel, said:
“We look forward to the spectacular transformation of Le Méridien Hong Kong, Cyberport that will reflect the distinctive and chic elements of the Le Méridien brand. This project will significantly enhance and elevate the experience for all guests.
“I would like to recognize and thank our incredible associates for their dedication over the past years, in particular the last 12 months. Under those exceptional circumstances, our team has been caring and providing exceptional levels of genuine hospitality to our guests and the local community.”
