In his opening ceremony address, Founder and Chairman of Lek Hang Group, Sio Chong Meng stated that the Macao government has been keenly focused on the preservation and revitalization of the historic city center in recent years, encouraging major leisure and entertainment enterprises to invest extensively in rejuvenating various districts. The hope is that the Hotel Central, with its rich historical roots and prime central location, will serve as a bridge connecting the various revitalized areas, fostering interaction and synergy among them.
Sio highlighted that the Hotel Central features a range of facilities open to the public free of charge, aimed at attracting visitors to the historic district and enhancing its allure. These offerings are intended to showcase Macao’s profound history to tourists, thereby contributing significantly to polishing Macao’s image as an international metropolis and reinforcing its status as a ‘golden business card’.
Hotel Central features 114 rooms. The hotel includes public spaces such as the “Historical Cultural Corridor,” the “Historical Sightseeing Promenade,” and the Palace Restaurant. Additionally, it offers guided tours led by professional docents, inviting guests to explore this historic building from 1928 and experience its rich history and culture firsthand.
Looking ahead, Hotel Central aims to integrate with other Lek Hang Group projects in the vicinity, such as the Restaurante Pou Seak and “City Inn”, transforming Rua dos Mercadores into a new commercial hub by collaborating with nearby attractions and merchants, thereby enhancing the area’s appeal to tourists.
