t’s early evening when you arrive at the Island Shangri-La. A smiling staff member welcomes you to the hotel and whisks you past the reception queue for a private check-in experience in the comfort of your own room or suite, while a
discreet porter materialises at the door with your luggage. You’re offered a complimentary late check-out option on the
day of your departure, which will of course also be handled at your convenience. In your own time, you head to the Horizon Club. The
sophisticated lounge is warmly lit with soft lighting illuminating the rich fabrics and classic mahogany walls. But your attention is captured by something else: the wall-to-wall windows offering a spellbinding panorama of the Hong Kong skyline at night. The Horizon Club attendants recognise you immediately and
introduce your dedicated Club Concierge, who will take care of all your needs during your stay. By good fortune it is 7pm, you’ve arrived at the perfect time
to enjoy evening cocktails, free-flow champagne and range of moreish canapés. Glass in hand, you find a cosy seating area with the
resplendent view in front of you. Undisturbed, you easily connect to the fast wifi and fire off a
few emails before recharging your glass and reading through the latest headlines from a wide selection of newspapers and magazines. You notice some fellow patrons are swapping travel stories
over a couple of tempting martinis. You consider joining them, but reluctantly decide to opt for an early night.

rooftop garden, admiring the tropical landscaping and soaking in those heady views once more. On your way out, you stop at reception to arrange some
important matters for the following day. Within a few moments, your dedicated Club Concierge has
booked complimentary two-hour use of the meeting room for an important presentation you’re delivering tomorrow. You’re delighted to discover that the team can also assist with printing out your presentation slides. One last request and housekeeping are on their way to collect
your suit and shoes for a complimentary pressing and shoeshine. Content, you head back to your room. In the morning, the rousing notes of coffee are a welcome
accompaniment to your wake-up call. You linger over the Continental breakfast spread in the Horizon Club, prolonging your time in the quiet, elegant space, before heading out for your first appointment. A quick word with your Club Concierge and you receive a
portable wifi device to stay connected while you're out and about in the city, enabling you to squeeze in a few last-minute emails on the way to your meeting. Welcome to the Horizon Lounge, Island Shangri-La, where true luxury means quality time well spent.
