Hong Kong stands at the epicenter of Asia’s leisure travel industry as well as its business world. From the buzzing nightlife of Kowloon to the dramatic skyline of Hong Kong Island, from Lantau Island’s towering stone Buddha to Lamma Island’s coastal trails, Hong Kong appeals on many levels.

Business in Hong Kong is brisk, partly because of its visa-free status and low tax rate system. Hong Kong is also home to the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre and Asia World Expo. For the U.S. market, business travel arrivals between January and December 2015 reached 250,541. Hotel occupancy was at 89 percent for 2015, and projections expect the number of hotels to balloon from 256 in 2015 to 306 by 2019.

Hong Kong offers a vast list of attractions, with its dramatic Victoria Harbour setting and an affinity for the arts just part of the mix. Begin with a Chinese junk boat tour on the harbor aboard Aqua Luna, replete with Champagne and hors d’oeuvres.

Business travelers can start the day with a power breakfast at The Lounge at the Four Seasons Hong Kong, known for the Allium sculpture by English artist Ruth Moilliet, one of many art pieces in the hotel’s collection. Adjacent to the glass-walled atrium in the hotel lobby, The Lounge offers an intimate space for a small gathering.

For another hotel-based option, Michelin-starred Mandarin Grill + Bar at the Mandarin Oriental, overseen by Executive Chef Uwe Opocensky, focuses on organic ingredients and seasonally inspired produce in its updated take on grill classics.
