"must start with - splendid breakfast - reminded me of my past life in england. we were on tour to china and had our return flight from hong kong, which is just 45 minutes from shenzhen in china as opposed to above 1.5 hours for guangzhou - for international flights, and thus had just one night to spend in hong kong. earlier we thought to save some money - looking at average room rates in hong kong. but as they say "you get only monkeys, if you throw peanuts", we were shocked with room size and bathroom size (was there one really?? i think all previous travelers had to take shower while performing their pooh pooh show) in hkd 500 - which is a good amount of money for a nice room in china. instantly, we purchased a local sim card for internet (smart tone hong kong it was, just in case you're interested - hkd 48 talk value in hkd 48 retail price and hkd 24 for a 24 hour internet) and searched hotels in nearby areas.. we found langham plaza and royal plaza - as we were at argyl street of hong kong. both were five stars and thus we chose a little less expensive one.. royal plaza but were really touched with the comfort in room and splendid breakfast. though, he hotel was under maintenance that time - we were provided with two set of ear plugs (along with a mentos in each set) at reception to save our sleep in the morning but we didn't have to use them also, the manager in dining area was really nice.. it was 10:25 when i showed up for breakfast. she came up to me and told they had extended breakfast time for by minutes to 11 am so i could i call my partner from room or just fill in a few dishes for him and keep with myself. anyhow, my partner didn't show up till 11:10 and i hadn't stored anything for him. the manager still offered a personalized service by offering anything he wanted from breakfast menu.. meat, freshly cooked egg/omelette, bakery, fruits, juices, muffins, etc etc etc.. overall, a recommended hotel for all kind of travelers to hong "

"The hotel is located right on top of the China Hong Kong Harbour. There are routes to Macao, Zhuhai, Shenzhen and others.. I believe it is quite convenient for business traveler from the Pearl Delta. There is also a great shopping mall just below the hotel. It is very convenient to shop and fetch a ferry back to Macao. Canton Road and Marina corridor, Star Avenue are also within walking distances. I think this is quite a bargain for a centrally located hotel in Hong Kong for its price level. Highly recommended!"

"I would say it is the Best Price ever if you would like to have a short stay in Hong Kong only for some good sleeping time every night. The location is fantastic. You can walk to Centre. The variety and food around the hotel are good and value for money. Hong Kong is small! You can not expect to have a large room like when you are doing a budget traveling in United States of America. Definitely worth it even though the space is small but, it is the best price ever in Hong Kong in a 4-star hotel. Good customer service! Excellent! "

"I was only there one day but could see that it is a top-class hotel. It has al the mod-cons in the room including a massive LED TV with a welcoming message for you and even speakers in the bathroom. Going to this hotel also really helped as I arrived at about 1am in Hong Kong and so didn't need to look for taxis or late-night transport and then hassle with check-ins in Hong Kong City. Most times you can only check in after 2pm anyway. And the good thing is it is not any more expensive than the normal (and usually much smaller) hotels in Hong Kong City."

"My wife and I lived in Hong Kong twice, for a total of four years. For most of that time we lived at mid-level on the Victoria side, and we loved the view we had, day and night. There are many more luxurious and famous hotels in Hong Kong, but at Bishop Lei we can have an excellent hotel, at a very reasonable price. We like the small but functional suites which have a bedroom with floor-to-ceiling windows. In the daytime we can look down on the Governor’s house and Central, with lots of greenery too. At night we have a fabulous view! The staff is efficient there is a good outdoor swimming pool, and the location, at the top of the Hong Kong escalator is perfect. In the morning we can take the escalator down, and in the evening or afternoon take it up. There are many good restaurants in the lively Lan Kwai Fong area along the escalator path, so it is easy to go out for dinner without having to go very far. The hotel also has a regular shuttle service to downtown and airport express."

"I had an unexpected extra night in Hong Kong so chose this hotel as it is quite new and was cheap. The lobby design is nice and big, check in was very quick. Yes the rooms are very small, mine had a double bed that basically filled the room and the bathroom had a half bath in it, which may have been better suited for just a shower and the bed was quite hard however the room design was new, it was clean, quiet and was fine for the 1 night I had there. If I had to spend a single night in Hong Kong I would have no problem going back there. If I was in Hong Kong for multiple nights I would probably choose a hotel with a bigger room."

As autumn arrives (September to November), temperatures gradually cool down, creating comfortable conditions for exploring the city. This season is often regarded as one of the best times to visit, with clear skies and pleasant weather. Whether you’re visiting during the cooler months or the summer heat, understanding Hong Kong's weather will help you pack appropriately and enjoy your trip to the fullest.

Exploring Hong Kong's Best Neighborhoods

Hong Kong is a city of diverse neighborhoods, each offering its own unique charm and attractions. Central is the bustling heart of the city, known for its impressive skyscrapers, luxury shopping, and vibrant nightlife. Here, you can stroll through the historic streets of SoHo, filled with trendy cafes and art galleries. The Hong Kong Park provides a peaceful escape amidst the urban landscape, featuring beautiful gardens and a serene lake.

Tsim Sha Tsui is another popular area, famous for its waterfront promenade and stunning views of the Hong Kong Skyline. The district is home to numerous shopping malls, including the upscale Harbour City, where you can find international brands and gourmet dining options. Don’t miss the nightly light show, Symphony of Lights, which illuminates the skyline and creates a magical atmosphere.

For a more local experience, head to Mong Kok, known for its vibrant street markets and bustling atmosphere. The Ladies Market is a must-visit for shopping enthusiasts, offering a wide range of clothing, accessories, and souvenirs at bargain prices. Nearby, the Temple Street Night Market comes alive in the evening, providing a fantastic opportunity to sample local street food and immerse yourself in the lively culture of Hong Kong.

Transportation Made Simple in Hong Kong

Getting around Hong Kong is incredibly convenient, thanks to its efficient public transportation system. The MTR (Mass Transit Railway) is the backbone of the city's transport network, connecting major districts and attractions. With frequent services and clean facilities, the MTR is an excellent way to navigate the city quickly. Purchasing an Octopus card allows for seamless travel on the MTR, buses, and ferries, making it easy to hop from one place to another without the hassle of cash.

Buses are another reliable option, offering extensive routes that cover areas not served by the MTR. Double-decker buses provide a unique perspective of the city as you travel above the bustling streets. For a more traditional experience, the iconic trams are a fun and scenic way to explore Hong Kong Island. These vintage trams glide along the tracks, allowing passengers to soak in the sights at a leisurely pace.

Ferries are a popular choice for crossing Victoria Harbour, providing stunning views of the skyline and a refreshing breeze. The Star Ferry is particularly famous, offering a short but memorable ride between Central and Tsim Sha Tsui. Taxis are readily available, but public transport is often more economical and efficient, especially during peak hours. With various transportation options at your disposal, exploring Hong Kong becomes an enjoyable adventure.
