In 1951, a generous gift from Sir Robert Ho Tung blossomed into a unique space at the University of Hong Kong: Lady Ho Tung Hall. This hall stands as a testament to his late wife, Lady Margaret Ho Tung, and it’s HKU’s sole female residential hall. Lady Ho Tung Hall isn’t just a building. It’s a blend of rich history and modern living, offering stunning sea views. Located conveniently close to the MTR station, it’s also just a short walk from the main HKU campus. The hall accommodates 404 students, offering both single and double bedrooms. Lady Ho Tung Hall embraces a motto, “Justitia Et Veritas,” meaning “Belief in both justice and truth.” Its patron beast, the unicorn, symbolizes the purity of a deer combined with the justice and power of a horse. This resonates with the hall’s spirit: “Unity; Strive for the Best; Tough and Strong.” Lady Ho Tung Hall isn’t merely a place to live; it’s a place to thrive, steeped in tradition and looking towards the future.
