In addition to balancing the needs of both international travelers and meeting planners, designing this unique hotel required striking a balance of international and Asian influences. The restaurant mix, for example, includes a wide range of offerings that run from fine Cantonese, served in all private dining rooms for the local business community, to prime aged steaks, to 24-hour convenient service for late-night travelers. Each location within the new Hilton has a unique profile with menus created by chefs specializing in that specific cuisine.

Meeting facilities were designed to balance the needs of different types of functions; with each ballroom has a private entrance, check-in and networking or entertaining areas. The meeting rooms, which are directly connected to the ballrooms to make for easy and convenient breakout sessions, include a mix of conference table and seating styles that are popular with both Asian and Western executive meetings. All meeting room areas are equipped with state-of-the-art technology.
