The Hari Hong Kong is situated in the lively, bustling district of Wan Chai; this retreat embraces the vibrant style, rich color and cultural heritage of the community around it. Helming this endeavor was the acclaimed British Interior Architectural Studio, Tara Bernerd & Partners, who were responsible for the eclectic interior design of the hotel’s 210 bedrooms, two restaurants, terrace bar, fitness center and lounge lobby. Conceived to be “the neighborhood’s living room”, the Hari Hong Kong welcomes guests with a unique blend of understated luxury. Plush midcentury lounge chairs and modernist coffee tables—all in a sophisticated palette of rich colors and a mix of tactile textures and subtle textiles—put you at home, while towering bookshelves and contemporary art inspire throughout. Hungry visitors can dive into two distinct culinary concepts: the contemporary Italian Menu of Lucciola, and the fresh sushi, local cocktails and low-key origami-inspired ceilings of Zoku.

Home Away from Home

The hotel’s signature Hari Suite keeps with this theme of refined homeliness, serving sweeping views over Victoria Harbour alongside interiors of banquette sofas, sophisticated wooden trimmings and—naturally—an ensemble of AXOR fixtures. An elegant single-lever AXOR Citterio kitchen faucet by the bar sets the mood, shining exquisitely beside a polished choice of spirits in a Brushed Nickel finish.

A Brilliant Blend of AXOR

With its deceptively simple layout, subtle arabesque marble tiling and sun-drenched vistas, the Hari Suite’s bathroom makes the perfect setting for a sophisticated interplay of AXOR designs in brilliant Brushed Bronze. At the washbasin, Tara Bernerd & Partners selected the refined urban chic of AXOR Citterio M in the form of a 3-hole faucet with lever handles. A floor-standing AXOR Urquiola thermostat makes a splash by the bath with its monolithic shape and expressive flourishes.

For the shower, Tara Bernerd & Partners curated a luxurious walk-in arrangement combining an archetypal AXOR Uno 3jet hand-held shower with a sleek thermostat and generous overhead shower from the AXOR ShowerSolutions program. A host of complementary softsquare AXOR Universal Accessories in matching Brushed Bronze round out the space, extending outstanding utility and radiant color to every corner of the bathroom.

Committed to Comfort, Style and Sustainability

A certified silver LEED and BEAM Plus hotel, the Hari Hong Kong prides itself on its mission towards sustainability—an imperative supported by its eco-conscious construction, resource-efficient operation and choice of AXOR in the bathroom.
