The Upper House

The Upper House treats restraint as its most deliberate architectural choice.

Hong Kong at its most considered — no clatter, no performance, just rooms that hold the city at a comfortable distance. The Upper House sits above Pacific Place with the quiet confidence of somewhere that has nothing to prove. The proportions are generous, the palette is muted, and the harbour, when it appears, feels earned rather than sold to you.

Stillness at the city's centre

Most hotels in Hong Kong lean into the city's energy — mirroring its pace, its density, its appetite for spectacle. The Upper House does the opposite, and that decision defines everything about it. André Fu's interiors work in warm stone, pale timber, and long sightlines that make the standard room feel closer to a private apartment than a hotel allocation. There are no lobbies designed for arriving in; instead, guests move upward to the 38th floor, where check-in happens quietly beside a view that earns its prominence. The spatial logic is unhurried. Ceilings are high, corridors are uncrowded, and the absence of a casino or convention floor is something you feel before you consciously register it. Café Gray Deluxe holds its own as a dining room rather than a hotel restaurant — a distinction that matters more than it sounds. For a city that rarely pauses, The Upper House offers something genuinely scarce: the sense that the decision to be here was the right one.

Getting there

Hong Kong International Airport is approximately 30 minutes by Airport Express train to Hong Kong Station, with a short taxi or MTR connection onward to Admiralty. The hotel sits directly above Pacific Place mall.

Best time to visit

October through December brings clear skies and lower humidity, making it the most comfortable season to move between the hotel and the city on foot.
