What the team found

CONRAD publishes 23/F, Tung Hip Commercial Building, 244-248 Des Voeux Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong as its office. The address is in Hong Kong. It was on the lobby directory, the team were let up and found a reception with the company's name on it.

The team recorded that CONRAD has a real office at the address it publishes. That says nothing about its regulation, pricing or treatment of clients, which the profile covers separately.
