More than just a commercial development, The Henderson, a new iconic landmark nestled in the heart of Central CBD, offers prestigious services that rival those of luxury hotels. The Henderson partnered with Forbes Travel Guide for customized service standards, training and professional assessment. By blending service excellence, art, innovation, and sustainability, The Henderson strives to offer a superior, bespoke smart office experience.
The Henderson stands as a testament of Henderson Land's unwavering dedication to providing exceptional experiences for our esteemed tenants and guests. This accolade highlights our commitment to redefining modern workspace standards, where every aspect of the workplace experience-from thoughtful concierge services to meticulously crafted interior design-aspires to luxury and sophistication. Bolstered by unparalleled banquet services, The Henderson has solidified its position as a beacon of luxury and hospitality in the commercial real estate landscape.
Since last year, The Henderson has welcomed a range of distinguished tenants. Among them is Christie's, the globally acclaimed art and luxury business, which has established its new Asia Pacific headquarters at The Henderson. This integrated hub provides Christie's with the much-needed flexibility to transform its sales and events schedule to year-round programming, creating opportunities for greater creativity and innovation. Adding on top of the list, Swiss luxury watchmaker Audemars Piguet occupies an entire floor to host its iconic AP House while also housing its Hong Kong office at The Henderson. This space offers guests a chance to partake in a premium experience, discover exquisite timepieces, and immerse themselves in the brand's rich heritage. Adding to its allure, Cloud 39 at The Henderson, the newest and highest ultra-luxury rooftop ballroom, has opened its doors. Featuring a striking all-glass design with floor-to-ceiling windows and an al fresco terrace, this column-free event space serves as the perfect venue for internationally renowned grand events. In 2025, exciting dining concepts will be unveiled at The Henderson, further enhancing the hospitality experience in the commercial real estate landscape.
