WHO WE ARE
Hello, and welcome to Swire Hotels.
Since 2008, we have set out to craft unscripted and authentic hospitality experiences for our guests, experiences that remain emorable long after a stay. Our two brands, Upper House and EAST, offer exceptional service and an appreciation of aesthetics in unique, distinctive locations.
We are small but dynamic, personal, and fun. More than anything, we thrive on individuality and celebrate difference. It is the source of our inspiration — from those with whom we work to those who stay with us.
We look forward to getting to know you better. Should you want to know more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Sincerely,
Dean Winter
Managing Director

EACH HOUSE HAS ITS OWN STORY
Upper House by Swire Hotels is a group of highly individual, luxury destinations made for seasoned travellers who seek a different, intimate, and personalised guest experience. From Hong Kong to Chengdu and Shanghai, each Upper House is uniquely imagined with its own story to tell.
ARRIVE AT A DIFFERENT PLACE
EAST’s approach to hospitality celebrates the search for better ways to live, rest, work, dine, and play — always welcoming unorthodox approaches and alternative thinkers. Find us in Hong Kong, Beijing, or Miami, and discover each hotel’s unique blend of dining, collaboration, and gathering spaces. For a longer stay that balances neighbourhood living with a hint of city bustle, explore EAST Residences..
A JOURNEY THROUGH ART, MUSIC AND TECHNOLOGY
We believe that crossing cultures is a source of incredible creativity, and our art programme “Encounters Across Cultures” does just that. Through collaborations with creators spanning music, art, and technology, we explore the inner rhythm that flows through each of our Houses.
IDEAS TO WAKE UP TO AT EAST
Our popular speaker series, “Ideas To Wake Up To”, is hosted across Hong Kong, Beijing, and Miami. Each event brings together leaders from the business and creative industries to co‑create, learn from one another, and spark new ideas for the betterment of all.
STRIVING TO DO MORE
We understand the importance of creating a sustainable environment and know that it can only happen through inspiring our people. Beyond eliminating plastic straws and bottles, we strive to bring both awareness to very real issues as well as showcase how being sustainable can spark creativity.
OUR PEOPLE OUR SOURCE OF INSPIRATION
SD Dialogue is a candid conversation with people from all walks of business who are passionate about sustainability, hosted by Jennifer Cheung, General Manager of EAST Hong Kong.
Our chefs speak with the next generation to share what Green Kitchen is and how we are working to ensure a greener future.
WELLNESS IN OUR HOTELS
Wellness is a personal journey of growth, and it’s different for everyone. Our goal is to give you the space you need to focus on your well‑being.
PURE SELF EXPRESSION
There’s a reason art flows through everything at Swire Hotels. Art, in all its beautiful forms, is one of the greatest expressions of individual perspective. Behind every piece lies a story of individuality, one we are proud to celebrate.
