The Royal Garden
Hong Kong · The Royal Garden · Core Luxury
Sun Hung Kai bought this Tsim Sha Tsui East plot in 1977 and opened The Royal Garden on 24 January 1981 at 69 Mody Road, around a 110-foot garden atrium, with suites opening onto terraces above the trees. A 25-metre pool went onto the roof in 1995. Sabatini, from the brothers' 1958 restaurant in Rome, has kept a dining room here since 1992, and Dong Lai Shun still simmers Beijing mutton hotpot in the basement.
