Expert reviews
“Formerly home to Hong Kong government offices, the iconic 1969 white high-rise known as the Murray Building reopened in January 2018 as The Murray hotel. The British architectural firm Foster + Partners has undertaken its transformation to a 336-room hotel spanning 25 floors. Among five restaurants and lounges, the rooftop bar will overlook the city’s business district and Hong Kong Park.”
“Built in 1969, The Murray, Hong Kong, a Niccolo Hotel’s building was already ahead of its time. At the hands of British modernist architect Ron Phillips, the energy-efficient structure featured a distinct white facade with three-story arches and recessed square windows designed to minimize direct sunlight.”
“The soaring arches at the entrance to The Murray set the scene for this landmark’s dramatic transformation from colonial-era offices into a high-end hotel. Great views and a clever use of space make it an alluring addition for those who want to stay in the city’s centre.”

Fantastic stay, lovely room and staffs.
We were in a very spacious room overlooking the Hong Kong park. Staffs were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is also right next to the peak tram station, and more local public transportation.
On the edge of Admiralty, a central business hub where things closed down during the weekend, so it can be a little further away from restaurants and other conveniences.

Excellent, will return
Spacious room, beautiful bathroom, modern decor, location much more convenient than expected. Far superior to many of the other higher end hotels at a similar price point.
Corridor was a tad dark, gym had limited equipment.

Amazing hotel worth every cent. Best breakfast in a hotel yet.
Phenomenal hotel. Service and facilities, and breakfast, were perhaps the best I have stayed in. And we have visited a lot of 5 star hotels. Eric the concierge just wonderful. So helpful. Beatrice in club Lounge was so lovely and helpful also. Gym was superb.
Found it difficult to navigate the walkways around HK. Everything is via building lobbies and shopping malls. This was more on HK than the hotel.

The best in my opinion
It was about the best place I’ve ever stayed in. There was an understated quality to all the offerings at the hotel be it, say, the room, the breakfast, the pool. All were beyond my expectations.

Good but could be better
I liked the 24 hour gym and the room was superbly appointed. The view from the room was excellent.
I couldn't order room service. As my custom, I pay for every order whether in a restaurant or in-room dining. In other hotels the service staff brought a card reader with them when they delivered in-room dining items. At the Murray they wanted to talk about this a LOT, which made me feel that they did not know how to make the room service 'service' smooth for a loyal Discovery member...I did not order room service and we went out for breakfast.

Love holiday in a fast paced city
The hotel was very central and easy to access shops, restaurants and local transportation.
Food at the hotel was a little over priced but lots of local food places to go instead, very short walk.

The Murray Experience
The Murray is Opulent and Classy. Our stay was an Exclusive Experience, and staff made us feel at home. We celebrated our 20th Anniversary and the Hotel went out of its way with complimentary balloons and delicious cake for our celebration. The rooms are very spacious with lots of amenities and qreat locations.

Really special!
There wasn’t a room service menu that was easily accessible, so we ended up getting deliveroo instead.
