Tai O Heritage Hotel

#HongKongInDepthTour
Tai O Heritage Hotel was originally the Tai O Police Station built in 1902. After restoration, it has become a boutique hotel that combines historical architecture with a lodging experience. The hotel is situated on a hillside overlooking the Tai O fishing village and the South China Sea, offering a secluded location with stunning scenery. The entire building retains colonial-era architectural features such as arched corridors, gray-white exterior walls, and wooden window frames, while incorporating modern comfort designs. Even if you don’t stay overnight, visitors can join the free guided tours organized by the hotel to gain an in-depth understanding of the police station’s history, its role in coastal defense, and the transformation of Tai O. Tai O itself is an important site for cultural conservation and fishing village heritage in Hong Kong, and the Heritage Hotel further provides a deep experience of "living in history." This is not just a place to stay for a night but a place to engage in dialogue with the past and resonate with local culture. If you love historic buildings, heritage conservation, and unique lodging experiences, this is a choice you cannot miss.
