儘管整体铺市表现一般，续租或新租大多数录减幅，中环荷李活道一个巨铺，以每月16万租出，却较旧租金微升1万或7%，平均每呎56元，新租客为韩国餐厅。
市场消息透露，中环荷李活道54至58号中发大厦高层地下C号铺，建筑面积2680方呎，铺位位处卑利街单边，旧租客Uma Nota经营8年，现时月租15万，近期因东主决定退休不再续租，巨铺旋即同样由食肆承租，租金还微升1万元，月租16万，平均每呎56元。
获小红书推介
据了解，该巨铺及邻近一带，近年一直获小红书推介，吸引眾多游客到此打卡，旧租客Uma Nota是巴西及日本菜融合的餐厅，将巴西食材以日式烹调，受食客欢迎，餐厅外墙亦漆上特色壁画，不但令餐厅倍添特色，亦令苏豪区生不少。
当该餐厅决定撤出，巨铺录至少3名準租客包括西餐厅洽商，经过短时间的角逐，结果由韩国餐厅力压其他对手承租该铺位。
平均呎租56元
有代理表示，现时荷李活道及卑利街该地段并没有吉铺，因此铺租不用减，甚至有轻微上升空间，她又说，有见繁忙时段，包括中午及假期晚上，街道人流聚集，她又发现，近年苏豪一带不乏韩国人，因此韩国餐厅成为新势力。
录3名準租客洽商
另一代理表示，有业主连租约放售旺角染布房街16号地铺，建筑面积约910方呎，意向售价约2500万，折合每呎售价约2,473元，具议价空间。该代理指，上述物业现由酒吧承租，月租约8万元，若以意向价计算，回报约3.8厘。
