Ghosts Can't Do It - Bo Derek (1989) - The Regent Hotel, Tsim Sha Tsui

Despite Bo going skinny dipping in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel's pool, this isn't the hotel she appears to be staying at. The hotel where we see her in her room is actually on the other side of the harbour and is The Regent. The Regent was owned by New World (of Chow Tai Fook, Citybus, First Bus, First Ferry, Rosewood etc fame) but sold to - what became - the InterContinental group in 2001 when it was renamed. InterContinental sold the building again in 2015 but have retained the management contract.

This time we get both a shot from inside Derek's hotel room as well as the more recognisable forecourt.


Anyway, this is its third appearance on the blog under the Regent name (previously featuring on Noble House and Detonator 2: Night Watch - both starring Pierce Brosnan).
