The Murray, Hong Kong

The Murray, Hong Kong is a Niccolo hotel at 22 Cotton Tree Drive in Central, in the heart of the financial district. It is a city wedding with a garden feel, framed by the hotel's well-known archways.

The spaces cover most styles. The Arches is a long, semi-outdoor room under those archways that works in any weather. Garden Lounge on the Upper Ground level opens onto The Lawn, a private stretch of green, and The Tai Pan offers outdoor garden seating for open-air ceremonies. Up on level 26, Popinjays gives a 270-degree view over the city, and the Niccolo Room on the 25th floor is the largest indoor space.

Packages include a cocktail ceremony, a garden wedding with lunch, lunch and dinner banquets with Chinese and Western menus, a Candlelight and Moonlight dinner on the Tai Pan Terrace and in The Arches, and a Popinjays package for lunch or dinner.

Banquet capacities are 60 in the Cassia Room, 114 on the Tai Pan Terrace, 130 in Popinjays, 180 in The Arches and 240 in the Niccolo Room. Lunch banquets start at HKD 14,000 and dinners at HKD 19,000 for each table of 12, plus a 10% service charge. A dedicated events coordinator guides the planning, and the kitchen caters for vegetarian, halal and other diets. Ask the team about the ceremony set-up, music and the finish time.

There is a bridal suite for you to use on the day, and the Wedding Suite package covers a night at the hotel before the big day. Ask the team about room blocks for family. Note that the hotel can host up to four weddings on the same day, so ask how the spaces will be shared on your date.

Extra guests can stay close by in Central and Admiralty. From Hong Kong International Airport, the Airport Express reaches Central in about 24 minutes, and free shuttle buses run from its Hong Kong and Kowloon stations to many larger hotels. Your photographer and videographer can work all over the hotel on the day.
