Hong Kong’s JW Marriott Hotel is betting on botanical luxury this season. From October 1 to November 30, 2026, the hotel’s The Lounge will host the “Golden Ginkgo Autumn” afternoon tea, a collaboration with French skincare house Sisley inspired by the brand’s famed SISLEŸA anti-aging line. Priced at HK$768 for two (plus 10% service charge), the limited-edition experience runs daily from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., and every guest takes home a Sisley gift package and service voucher valued at HK$1,200.
A Garden of Botanicals in Every Bite
Rather than a generic hotel-tea partnership, this menu weaves the SISLEŸA collection’s botanical DNA into nearly every course. Ginkgo biloba, lavender, and sweet marjoram are the recurring motifs, mirroring the plant-based actives used in Sisley’s cult-favorite formulas. The result is a dining experience that feels less like an ordinary tea service and more like an extension of a skincare ritual.
Sweet highlights include a silky ginkgo mousse “sandwich” layered with ginkgo paste, lavender and passionfruit finished with honey-jelly crystals, chewy soy-sesame mochi, and a strawberry-jasmine tea cake. Savory selections showcase the same herb-forward creativity: lavender honey goat cheese tart, ginkgo and fresh crab meat steamed egg, lavender roast chicken roll, and sweet marjoram roasted European radish all make the bill, while more classic seafood bites—tuna tartare on tofu cream, and crispy seafood tofu-skin rolls with chili sauce—offer balance.
The experience is rounded out with freshly baked plain and raisin scones, served with Alice Marriott raspberry jam and clotted cream. Guests choose between TWG Tea, specialty coffee, or an optional upgrade to Champagne for HK$130 per glass.
Skincare Gift Worth HK$1,200
The promotion’s centerpiece perk is its generous giveaway. Each diner (not just per table) will receive:
- A SISLEŸA anti-aging skincare sampler set, including the iconic S Cream (anti-aging cream), S Eye Balm, and Radiance Serum
- A 30-minute SISLEŸA radiance eye massage service voucher, redeemable at designated Sisley beauty boutiques
Valuing at HK$1,200 per person, the gift alone nearly matches the price of the tea. Notably, the eye massage service is a spa treatment not usually offered at hotel tea events, adding a perk for wellness-oriented diners. As with previous campaigns, quantities are limited, so early reservations are recommended.
Where and How to Book
The afternoon tea will be served at The Lounge, located on the lobby level of the JW Marriott Hong Kong, Pacific Place, Admiralty. Reservations can be made through the JW Marriott online boutique, or by phone at +852 2810 8366. As with all platform offers, guests are advised to review the terms and conditions at the time of booking, as the hotel and its retail partners reserve the right to adjust pricing and availability.
A Growing Luxury Trend
The pairing of fine dining and high-end cosmetics is becoming a signature of Hong Kong’s luxury hospitality scene. By fusing seasonal gastronomy with Sisley’s skincare heritage, the JW Marriott is catering to a new kind of traveler—one who views a hotel, a meal, and a beauty ritual as parts of a single, indulgent narrative. For fans of both afternoon tea and premium skincare, this autumnal collaboration offers a rare chance to experience both — and leave with more than just a full stomach.
