Eaton Hotel Hong Kong Rebrands as Eaton Smart, Hong Kong

The Eaton Hotel Hong Kong has rebranded as the Eaton Smart, Hong Kong.

As part of the rebranding. the hotel has spent over HK$10 million on refurbishing its lobby which includes a new reception, retail shop, internet portal and indoor and outdoor bar areas.

Wherever possible, organic elements have been introduced as part of the look and feel of the lobby, supporting Eaton’s commitment to sustainability. The introduction of a 6 metre high by 8 metre wide internal vertical green wall is an example with this new feature being one of Hong Kong’s largest indoor vertical walls within a hotel. The green wall features 3600 Sansevieria trifasciata – Mother in law’s tongue or Snake plants. These large leaf plants were specifically chosen to assist with improving indoor air quality through photosynthesis which reduces the velocity of mechanical air handling and the subsequent energy required to drive the air handling units.

The lobby also features another sustainable material which is Bamboo walling and flooring. Bamboo can easily and quickly be re-grown in a reasonably short time and is typically harvested every four to five years without actually destroying the plant. In addition, because of its resiliency, bamboo doesn't have to be refinished as often as hardwood. This cuts down on the chemicals necessary to maintain the floor.

Guests and visitors can enjoy viewing the new green wall while they relax in the newly refurbished T Garden which is Eaton’s new outdoor bar and dining area. Both areas are located on level L of the hotel.

The new Eaton Smart 4th floor lobby features the following outlet:

- T Bar: The social hub of the hotel, offering tea, coffee, beers, wines, cocktails and innovative bar snacks.

- T Garden: Your oasis in the middle of Jordan offering ice cold local and imported beers, seasonal crisp rose, white and red wines. Thirst quenching mojitos and a selection of food platters.

- Essentials: A retail outlet offering everything you need with a selection of travel essentials and snacks.
