“Lording it over the southern tip of Kowloon, Hong Kong’s finest hotel exudes colonial elegance. Many rooms in the 20-storey annexe offer spectacular harbour views; in the original building you’ll have to make do with the glorious interiors.”
”Conveniently located in Wan Chai, the 138-room Hotel Indigo has a bright, locally inspired décor—goldfish pillows, Chinese lanterns–along with a glass-bottom, rooftop pool cantilevered over the bustling sidewalks 29 floors below.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Hong Kong.
”The 66-room Tuve Hotel is bringing boutique chic to the gentrifying neighborhood of Tin Hau. The design is minimalist, using gray-toned raw materials like concrete, marble, steel and glass, with unique touches like the desk-minibar-in-a-box combo unit to save space.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Hong Kong.
“Even standard rooms in this haven of stylish luxury are suites—tranquil havens of design and indulgence that feature huge window-side bathtubs, walk-in rain showers, a personal iPod touch with everything on it, free minibars, and high-end wine fridges.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Hong Kong.
“This hotel has been a landmark in Central since 1963, which makes it ancient in this ever-changing city. It’s a perfect blend of updated facilities with retro charm, evident in its timeless lobby, clubby Captain’s Bar that looks the same as it did 50 years ago, and trademark restaurants like the venerable Mandarin Grill and Man Wah.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Hong Kong.
“From the world’s highest hotel, perching on the 102nd through the 118th floors of the ICC skyscraper in West Kowloon, every large and luxurious guest room enjoys a stupendous vantage point.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Hong Kong.
“Formerly home to Hong Kong government offices, the iconic 1969 white high-rise known as the Murray Building reopened in January 2018 as The Murray hotel. The British architectural firm Foster + Partners has undertaken its transformation to a 336-room hotel spanning 25 floors. Among five restaurants and lounges, the rooftop bar will overlook the city’s business district and Hong Kong Park.”
“Room-to-roam apartment-style living in a city where space is at a serious premium. Convenient to the airport and Kowloon’s attractions, it’s a luxuriant, calm oasis amid the Hong Kong hubbub, and surprisingly affordable.”
“After a beast of a renovation, The Fleming boutique hotel re-emerged in Wan Chai late 2017 with a new look, inspired by the green-and-white cross-harbor ferries. The design features contemporary maritime accents, such as porthole-like mirrors, industrial lamps and navy-striped rugs.”
“Fabulous hostel for university students that also entertains backpackers whenever rooms are available, but especially during the summer months. The 48 rooms with four beds each feature nifty communal and study spaces, kitchenette and shower.”
“Top marks to this classic that exudes understated elegance and composure. Rooms are plush and relatively spacious, with those on the upper floors commanding views over the city.”
