The hotel was opened in 1980[1] as The Regent Hong Kong (Chinese: 麗晶酒店) and it was originally owned and managed by New World Development.

In June 2001, New World sold the hotel to Six Continents plc for GB£241 million. Six Continents (now InterContinental Hotels Group PLC) then rebranded the property as the InterContinental Hong Kong.

In July 2015, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) agreed to sell the InterContinental Hong Kong to Supreme Key, a consortium of investors, for US$938 million. It was reported that IHG will retain a 37-year management contract, with three 10-year extension rights.[1]
