Our Inspector's Highlights

All from the owner’s private collection, the hotel’s art is worth swooning over, from two charcoal installations by Seoul-based artist Bahk Seon-ghi to the oversized Awilda’s White Head sculpture by Jaume Plensa.
The mammoth architectural project incorporated aspects of the old structure in surprising ways. For example, an angled driveway that once led into the former parking lot has been converted into a versatile events venue.
There’s greenery everywhere, including the property’s own registered “Old and Valuable Tree,” a century-old indochinensis that’s been given its own plot in the center of the driveway.
One of The Murray’s major highlights is a rooftop bar and restaurant dubbed Popinjays. Named after the cockatoos that still roam around adjacent Garden Road, the 26th-floor address provides panoramic vistas of Hong Kong’s skyscrapers and green mountains.
The luxury hotel’s team of culinary experts is available to provide bespoke menus throughout your stay, which can then be arranged for room service or at the restaurants.
