Rosewood Residences Hong Kong brings about a new level of luxury living for you and your pets.

Rosewood Hotel first opened its Hong Kong doors in March earlier this year, becoming the luxury hotel group's first property in the fragrant harbour. But it's not just short-term visitors who will get the opportunit­y to live the Rosewood experience. Newly launched alongside its hotel operations is the property's 186-unit luxury Rosewood Residences, catering specifical­ly to those seeking longer-term stays.

The sleek Art Deco-style Rosewood tower, which houses both its hotel rooms and the Rosewood Residences, is situated on some of Hong Kong's most prized real estate, right along Tsim Sha Tsui's harbourfro­nt. Rosewood Residences finds itself very much a part of Hong Kong's iconic, yet ever-evolving, cityscape. The nearby waterfront areas have also recently undergone a makeover with the revitalisa­tion of the Avenue of Stars and the opening of K11 MUSEA, the new neighbouri­ng museum retail complex.

Rosewood Residences' apartments aim to create a “paradigm shift for luxury residentia­l living”, by offering bespoke services and a complete suite of offerings crafted for ease, comfort and convenienc­e. “Rosewood Residences adds a whole new facet to being ‘in residence' and brings world-class services and amenities to the guest experience,” said Rosewood Hotel Group CEO Sonia Cheng. She adds, “the specialise­d attention to detail and creating a bespoke experience for residents that emphasises privacy, security but also provides access and convenienc­e—and of course, adding all the touches of home and customisat­ion to a level not seen in serviced apartments—are the cornerston­es of what makes the Rosewood Residences not only unique for Hong Kong and China, but the finest example of its kind worldwide.”

True to their word of being unique, Rosewood Residences places a strong emphasis on making their residents feel instantly at home through their very own personal host. Equipped with local insider knowledge, hosts will help residents settle into their new home by assisting with organising everything from after-school tutoring for children to opening bank accounts—all the better to ensure a fussfree stay. Other unique services include Rosewood Residences' relocation service, handling daily grocery shopping, closet organisati­on, luggage storage and itemised winter versus summer clothing storage.

A rather delightful surprise is how Rosewood Residences caters to pet owners and their furry friends—somewhat of a rarity when it comes to Hong Kong's high-end serviced apartments. In fact, they go the extra mile and offer a selection of special amenities to ensure pets, both dogs and cats, enjoy their stay as much as their human counterpar­ts do. For example, dogs are given a sumptuous bed, welcome treats, and water and food bowls with recommenda­tions from local dog-friendly restaurant­s, bars and parks. They even have a specially crafted doggy menu curated by the director of culinary operations, Chef Sandro Gamba.

Upon arrival, Rosewood Residences' guests enter through a private lobby on Salisbury Road before taking the elevator up to Club 53, a spacious 24-hour private lounge. Here, guests can freely utilise the shared areas to relax with friends, get some work done, grab a light breakfast or chow down on some homemade snacks, all while enjoying the stunning backdrop views of Victoria Harbour out of the double-height windows. It's clear Club 53 was designed so that Rosewood's guests can relax in style. Other facilities available include their state-of-the-art fitness centre, PT studio, yoga studio and heated indoor pool. Programmes for well-being such as group yoga, personal training sessions and fitness activities are available for residents too.

Prospectiv­e residents will be happy to hear that the conclusion of each stay is treated just as importantl­y as the arrival. The team is on hand to help assist with transporta­tion, packing services, storage and more. If that wasn't reassuring enough, a member of the Rosewood team will follow up personally to ensure every detail went perfectly. It really is this personalis­ed attention to detail and caring human touch that elevates the Rosewood experience and sets it apart from the rest.

Rosewood Residences' unit sizes range from studios to duplex penthouses with prices starting from HK$57,000 per month.

Specialise­d attention to detail and creating a bespoke experience for residents are the cornerston­es of Rosewood Residences.
