Established in 1929, the 13 floor Cathay Building's architecture is of British Gothic style.

It is a combination of the outstanding architecture style of the 1880s and the decoration style of the 1920s. For example, the hotel's half-arc escalator, copper doors, iron decorations and unique floor indicators in the lift lobby are "deco" marvels. Despite more than 70 years of hardship, they still show the hallmarks of classic design. Housing 195 guest rooms, the Cathay Building is very spacious and each story is over three meters high. The sunshine floods onto the classical furniture in each of the rooms through the unique wood window frames. The solid and magnificent Grosvenor House, completed in 1934, is a testament to the 1930s design ethic, with a central spire of 18 storeys flanked by an east and west side 13 floors high. The hotel's corridors feature continuous geometric ornamentation and as you walk the hallways, you can imagine the graceful guests and happenings of the hotel's past. »Read More
