V Group Opens its First Fully-Fledged Hotel in Wanchai, Hong Kong

The Hong Kong-based hotel and serviced apartment provider, V Group, has expanded its portfolio to include the group’s first fully-fledged hotel - V Wanchai².

The 79-room hotel is located in one of the town’s most popular commercial and entertainment districts at 139 Thomson Road, minutes away from the Hong Kong Convention Centre in Wanchai.

“V Generation’s properties are not a brand of homogeneously styled hotels and serviced apartments, but each accents its own individuality,” said Ms Vivien Chan BBS JP, Founder & Chairman of the V Group of companies. “It offers a fresh take on living-on-the-go for modern travelers.”

Despite only been completed recently, V Wanchai²’s interior design has already been lauded for various awards including a Certificate of Excellence in Perspective magazine’s 2012 design awards, and Excellence Certification in the 2012 Asia Pacific Interior Design Awards.

The reception at V Wanchai² is decorated by an abacus-inspired wall feature, contrasted by contemporary cast-iron lighting. This leads out to an intimate terrace garden which serves as a gathering place to enjoy the hotel’s complimentary happy hour drinks and continental breakfast.

Room interiors showcase V group’s attention to detail. The door of each room is custom-made and intricately etched with charming bird and flower carvings, creating an art gallery corridor. These delicately carved motifs also appear on the headboard of each bed in V Wanchai². Each room is appointed with hand-selected bedding and custom-designed furniture. Chinese stools with marble tops bring additional texture and highlights to the rooms.

V Wanchai² features 30 studio-style Luxe rooms, 10 Deluxe rooms of 600 sq ft, 26 Premium Deluxe rooms of 510 sq ft and 13 spacious V Grand Suites of 740 sq ft.

All rooms include TVs and audio systems, bath and rain showers. Select rooms also provide wine coolers, and washers and dryers for those who prefer to pack light. Guests are further taken care of through access to a complimentary DVD library, high-speed wireless internet and local calls.

“There is no standard ‘V’ experience, though each is refined, contemporary, youthful and fun. We consciously create and develop the distinctive ‘V Generation’ hotels and serviced apartments to suit the modern traveler. However, one thing unites them all, and that is we are committed to uncompromising service quality and delivery of the highest standards to ensure we not only meet, but exceed expectations when guests stay at ‘V’”, said Ms Chan.

To celebrate the opening of V Wanchai², from now till 30 April 2013, upon check-in, all guests will receive a bottle of French red wine in their room to welcome them to the ‘V’ experience.
