The First Mondrian in Greater China Is Now Open in Hong Kong
MONDRIAN HONG KONG is inspired. By people. As part of Mondrian's deep regard for its neighbourhood and community, its team is committed to giving back and rather than the traditional welcome of VIP's and celebrities as the first guests, Mondrian marks its launch and arrival in the city with inviting Single Parent Families to a much deserved Staycation. As a first initiative and sign of a true commitment to becoming an integral part of the community, the hotel will make space for those who need a small getaway the most and provide a meaningful way to introduce the brand.
Mondrian is partnering with SoCO and the Hong Kong Single Parents Association, both prominent NGOs, to invite single parent families to take a break from their daily routine, enjoying complimentary one-night accommodation including breakfast and dinner at the restaurants, along with a gift bag offered by the Owning Company Peterson Group. Mondrian also includes M+ museum tickets to the families, adding a lifestyle experience that aligns with its cultural mission of pushing boundaries through creative exploration. Committed to community, the tickets offer an opportunity for inspiration and new perspectives through thought-provoking art.
The Opening initiative marks the beginning of Mondrian's community involvement, its mission to be an integral part of the city and use business with a social and cultural purpose.
MONDRIAN HONG KONG General Manager Dirk Dalichau said he was inspired to use a more unconventional approach to launch the hotel and amongst the glitz and glamour, extend a deeper ethos of community uplift from the very beginning; an event with a social conscience that could make a small but real difference.
"Our vision is the hotel as a progressive and imaginative community, a place to connect, have fun, be challenged, experiment, and come away inspired ," says Dalichau.
"In eager anticipation to welcome our first guests, we wanted to throw our doors open to some of Hong Kong's most deserving families, by simply giving them a small break away from the daily pressures. This commitment will be taken further, by offering single parents job sharing possibilities that provide some extra flexibility to meet their unique needs.
"It's a chance to make a positive impact, position Mondrian as a brand that takes its responsibilities to the community seriously, help those who need it most, support local talents, and inspire future collaborations that can have a lasting impact."
