💎 Look up… there’s a story hanging above you.

Our iconic Twill Flower chandelier is one of the most photographed details inside Fairmont Empress. Crafted with 250,000 hand-cut crystals, this breathtaking installation by Lasvit honours our heritage while welcoming a new era of timeless elegance.

But behind its beauty is an incredible story of artistry, precision, and craftsmanship.

Can you guess?
⏳ How long did installation take?
⚖️ How much does this crystal masterpiece weigh?

Fairmont Empress, Then & Now

Over a century of stories. From its earliest days overlooking the Inner Harbour to the experience you know today—celebrated dining, stunning rooms, and thoughtful service that has welcomed generations of guests.

Some things evolve—how it makes you feel never does.

Timeless. Effortless. Unmistakable.

Even for our Wellness Ambassador, Kylian Mbappé, wellness can be as simple as a bowl of pasta carbonara.

To bring Wellness Without Walls to life, Executive Chef Isabel Chung has reimagined Kylian's favourite dish as a Champion’s Carbonara, a comforting expression of care, recovery, and the rituals that help us feel ready for what’s ahead.

Because sometimes the moments that restore us are the simplest ones.
