MGallery by Sofitel to debut in Hong Kong with The Silveri

Accor’s lauded MGallery by Sofitel collection is about to make its anticipated debut in Hong Kong later this year with The Silveri. Set to open in the second half of 2019, the new hotel will make the 33rd MGallery by Sofitel in Asia, reiterating the highly curated collection’s profile of unique high-end boutiques.

The luxury hotel will be part of the Citygate project in the Tung Chung district of Lantau Island, where it will enjoy expanded direct connections to the city centre and Hong Kong international airport, which in a big plus for business travellers, is only a few minutes away.

“We are delighted to be bringing Accor’s highly acclaimed MGallery by Sofitel brand to Hong Kong for the first time, creating a stylish new hotel which will be memorable, exciting and unique – and disrupt conventional luxury hospitality in the city”, said Mr. Nicholas Cullum, Cluster General Manager of The Silveri MGallery by Sofitel and Novotel Citygate.

Designed to mimic a contemporary Manor House, the hotel will sit in the foothills of Lantau and aim for elegant luxury with a “comfortable, refined residential feel”. The interiors will lean heavily towards silver accents as a reminder of the island’s heritage, while the natural tones of wood and leather will be contrasted alongside natural greenery and bodies of water.

Amenities will include unique private plunge pool suites overlooking the verdant hills of Lantau, a garden lawn, and a number of bars and restaurants, with the dining experience focusing on hand-picked ingredients, seasonality and freshness.

The Silveri will also be offering guests a number of curated experiences to help them better explore Lantau. This includes private boat trips – complete with Champagne and canapes – as well as pink dolphin spitting, and guided tours to the renowned Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery.
