Leighton Road (Chinese: 禮頓道) is a main road in Causeway Bay and Wan Chai in Hong Kong. It begins east Causeway Road and ends west at the junction of Morrison Hill Road and Canal Road.
Part of the road surrounds Leighton Hill in its north while part of it runs along Lee Garden (a property of the Lee Hysan family), known as Jardine's Hill (owned by Jardine-Matheson) in early colonial days. The area adjacent to the road is relative quiet compared to the business centre of East Point of Causeway Bay.
A branch road, Wong Nai Chung Road leads to the Happy Valley Racecourse and the residential area in Happy Valley.
Lee Theatre, Leighton Centre, Po Leung Kuk, St. Paul's Convent School, Craigengower Cricket Club are located at both sides of the road.
