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.”

Pleasant
The heritage
The shower and bathtub location. Not enough hangers or hooks to hang clothes. Whole floor is wet if one takes shower.

Luxurious stay in the central hustle and bustle of Hong Kong
Outstanding Hotel in a great location. The staff were fantastic especially Eric who took care of all our needs during our stay. The restaurants in the hotel were excellent and the roof top bar is a very cool place to hang out with all the local businesspeople from surrounding offices and watch the sun set
It is a near perfect hotel, what would be nice especially in summer is an outside pool area as there was only an indoor pool at the hotel which was very nice.

Fantastic place to stay in HK
One of the best hotels I’ve stayed - clean, stylish and comfortable. Breakfast was great! Fresh fruits every day in the room.
Better gym equipment

Brilliant. Will definately use for next trips to HK.
In a word - SUPERB. Everything from the staff to the room was perfect. Everyone truly treated you like a guest and a friend. Rooftop bar was fantastic too!

Wonderful and comfortable stay
Front desk and room service was marvellous, shout out to Eric and Florence for their impeccable service. We had a free upgrade to a grand room and the rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Book the rooms with the bathtubs if you can! Also, we love the toiletries from Grown Alchemist. We joined their Historic tour and it was interesting to learn how they revamped the premises. Would be better if they shared some ‘before’ photos as well. I would come to HK again just to stay at The Murray. So far, one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in.

Will be our home everytime we come back to HK.
Quiet location but super close to everything.
Room service is pretty expensive so we just chose to eat out all the time.

Absolutely loved staying at the Murray, staff friendly and accommodating, central and convenient
The location of the hotel was perfect,, very convenient and central and provided lovely Views of Hong Kong. As a long time residents of Hong Kong it was everything we wanted to relive out memories.The staff were friendly and so accommodating
There could have been more restaurants open earlier and the rooftop restaurant could have remained open at night.

Excellent stay, great friendly and helpful staff. Location is perfect for the island
Beautiful clean hotel in an excellent location. Staff were uber helpful and rooms very comfortable. Would very much recommend and stay again. Walking distance to Wan Chai, Central and the underground. Right next to the Victoria Peak tram stop and Hong Kong Park
The pool was a little claustrophobic with no area to sit or lay down and roof top bar service was slow.

Murray Hotel was amazing during my recent stay in Hong Kong. The staff was outstanding, offering attentive and personalized service that made my visit truly memorable. A special mention must go to Aly and Kim, who went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Highly recommended for anyone looking for exceptional hospitality in Hong Kong!

Excellent hotel
Great rooftop bar
10 April 2024
Would recommend for couples, nice roof deck
Great location, wonderful staff, very clean and luxurious
I’m wanted two twin beds, an option in the booking reservation and the main reason I picked this hotel, but when we checked in they only had a king option. They gave me a complementary roll away which I appreciated but I would have preferred to know two twins were not available at booking and I would picked a different hotel.

Perfect hotel for a short city break.
The hotel was very stylish in an understated way. The staff were friendly and efficient. Happy (3) Hours was a great bonus with the complimentary buffet. Very handy for the Peak Tram.

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.

Fabulous
Location was perfect and the architecture/design of the hotel was wonderful. Poppinjays was a great restaurant with exceptional service combined with a splendid vista and terrace.
elongated confusion on the hotel rebate scheme. Eventually resolved but not without frustration
