Once the world’s most-visited city, Hong Kong now converts hotels into student dorms
Late last month, an open tender for Hotel Cozi Harbour View in Kwun Tong was announced, with interested parties given until October 15 to submit bids.
The 598-room hotel, located in Hong Kong’s eastern Kowloon Peninsula, a former industrial area, was taken over by Nanyang Commercial Bank for HK$1.87 billion (US$238.4 million) in 2025, with the bank now looking to dispose of the asset to the highest bidder.
Just a week after the announcement of the tender, Nina Hospitality, one of the largest hotel operators in Hong Kong, unveiled the completion of the HK$120 million (US$15.3 million) renovation at Nina Hotel Island South.
The refurbishment transformed the hotel’s lobby and guestrooms and launched both balcony suites and family rooms.
