Given the length of the transit could I request at check-in to collect luggage in Hong Kong prior to the overnight hotel stay, then check it in the morning for the LHR flight?
Personally I've never had an overnight transit at HKG but other FT users on this forum have reported that they have been able to do that
The success rate for an overnight transit has been significantly higher
Since your onward flight is to LHR it should be pretty obvious to the agent that you have no intention of skiplagging so IMO you can be very assured that collecting your baggage at HKG should not be a problem
