Hong Kong’s award-winning hotel and serviced apartment provider, V Group, has extended its range of original and contemporary living spaces to include the group’s first fully-fledged hotel – V Wanchai².
HONG KONG – V Group recently entered into Hong Kong competitive –but also very lucrative- hotel market with its first fully-fledged hotel – V Wanchai². The latest 79-room hotel is located in one of the town’s most popular commercial and entertainment districts at 139 Thomson Road, minutes away from the Hong Kong Convention Centre in Wanchai.
V Wanchai² hotel, along with its sister serviced apartments, was created on the “V Generation” principles offering urban living spaces equipped with thoughtful and practical amenities to ensure guests live a lifestyle in keeping with modern luxuries, whilst still being a true home away from home.
“V Generation’s properties are not a brand of homogeneously styled hotels and serviced apartments, but each accents its own individuality. Our property offers a fresh take on living-on-the-go for modern travellers” said Ms. Vivien Chan BBS JP, Founder & Chairman of the V Group of companies.
Despite only been completed recently, V Wanchai²’s interior design has already been lauded for various awards including a Certificate of Excellence in Perspective magazine’s 2012 design awards, and Excellence Certification in the 2012 Asia Pacific Interior Design Awards.
Inspired by classic yet timeless Chinese elements, this tranquil hideaway presents a distinct sense of youthful individuality. V Wanchai² reception is distinctly decorated by an abacus-inspired wall feature contrasted by contemporary cast-iron lighting. This leads out to an intimate terrace garden which serves as a place to enjoy the hotel’s complimentary happy hour drinks and continental breakfast.
Room interiors showcase V group’s attention to detail. The door of each room is custom-made and intricately etched with bird and flower carvings, creating an art gallery corridor. These delicately carved motifs also appear on the headboard of each bed in V Wanchai². Each room is appointed with hand-selected bedding and custom-designed furniture. Chinese stools with warm marble tops bring additional texture and highlights to the rooms.
V Wanchai features 30 studio-style Luxe rooms, 10 Deluxe rooms of 600 sq ft, 26 Premium Deluxe rooms of 510 sq ft and 13 spacious V Grand Suites of 740 sq ft. All rooms include TVs and audio systems, bath and rain showers. Select rooms also provide wine coolers for wine connoisseurs, and washers and dryers for those who wish to feel more at home on-the-go. Guests are further taken care of through access to a complimentary DVD library, high-speed wireless internet and local calls.
“We consciously create and develop the distinctive ‘V Generation’ hotels and serviced apartments to suit the modern traveller. However, one thing unites them all, and that is we are committed to uncompromising service quality and delivery of the highest standards to ensure we exceed our guests’expectations”, said Ms Chan.
To celebrate the opening of V Wanchai², from now till 30 April 2013, upon check-in, all guests will receive a bottle of fine French red wine in their room to welcome them to the exclusive ‘V’ experience.
