Wong Chuk Hang offers an expansive complex with several pools designed for swimmers of all abilities. Enjoy lap swimming in the main pool, diving practice in its dedicated diving pool or splashing around in two kiddie pools complete with water slides and aqua tunnel. Deckchairs and loungers allow guests to take in breathtaking city views as they take part.

Non-hotel residents can access the pool on weekdays during weekdays for four-hour passes costing HKD 600 per adult or 300 per child; non-hotel guests may even rent private lockers to change into swimwear on site for an additional fee.
Whoever wishes to spend more time at the pool can book a stay at this hotel for some extra amenities, including daily breakfast, up to HKD 800 credit and internet access. All rooms are modernly appointed with flat-screen TVs, rain showers and luxurious toiletries to ensure a relaxing stay.
