REIT
In October 2006, the company announced plans to sell and separately list its hotel properties in a Real Estate Investment Trust.[3] However, as the Sunlight REIT spun off by Henderson Land Development fell by 6.5% on its market debut on 21 December, Regal chose to delay its offer.
On 13 March 2007, Regal announced its public offer for sale of up to 50 percent in Regal Hotels Real Estate Investment Trust, to be co-sponsored by Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch,[4] and raised HK$2.3 billion.[5]

Former hotels
- Regal Constellation Hotel, a large property near Pearson International Airport in Toronto, Ontario built in 1962. The hotel consisted of two 15 floor towers, a six-storey atrium, a Chinese restaurant and 90,000 square feet (8,400 m2) of convention space. Due to declining trade, the hotel was sold to Hospitality Investors Group of Scottsdale, Arizona in 2004 for redevelopment.[6] Now owned by Park'N Fly, the hotel was demolished in 2011–2012 and is currently a vacant lot.
- Regal Bostonian Hotel, a property opposite Faneuil Hall in downtown Boston opened in 1981. Regal bought the hotel in 1996 and sold it to Millennium & Copthorne Hotels in 2002.[7] Now operates as Millennium The Bostonian.
- Regal McCormick Ranch, a property in the master-planned community of McCormick Ranch in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Controversies
On 14 February 2025, the Hong Kong Journalists Association announced that they had to postpone their annual fund raiser dinner due to a power supply issue at the Regal Hotel in Causeway Bay. The hotel refused to reschedule or re-accommodate the event and an undercover journalist subsequently discovered that there was no such issue. This led to speculation that the hotel may have been pressured into becoming complicit in the erosion of press freedom in Hong Kong.[8]
