Hong Kong Hotels
by: John Riggin
The New Year's celebration is Hong Kong's biggest
event of the year. The three-day extravaganza includes
a colorful parade on the first day, a brilliant display of
fireworks over Victoria Harbour on the second day and
horse races on the third. To best take advantage of all
Hong Kong has to offer during this celebration,
travelers should stay near the action. Fortunately, Hong
Kong has long been a popular destination for both
business and pleasure travelers and fantastic hotels are
abundant in the area.
The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong is a five star hotel located
close to the New Year's parade route. Rooms feature
spectacular views of Victoria Peak, the city or, for a
higher price, the harbor. The décor is elegant and
traditional. However, the Ritz-Carlton's greatest strength
is its amazing level of service. The numerous helpful
staff members work hard to make guests feel pampered
and appreciated. Tasty complimentary cookies are
always available in the reception area, a favorite perk
for guests.
Another five star hotel situated near the parade route is
the Island Shangri-La Hotel, located at the Pacific Place
development in the Central District of Hong Kong. The
location is one of the best in Hong Kong with plenty to
see and do nearby. Shoppers will appreciate the large
shopping mall also housed in Pacific Place. The hotel
boasts many leisure facilities, including a health club
and swimming pool, and there are a variety of bars and
restaurants featuring different types of cuisine. The
rooms are lavishly appointed and command views of the
peak or the harbor, perfect for watching the fireworks
display.
Also located at Pacific Place is the classy Conrad Hong
Kong, another five star hotel. Rooms are decorated with
an elegant, modern flair, but touches like the teddy bear
by the bed and rubber duckie in the bath are fun and
homey. Each year the Conrad's distinctive lobby is
beautifully decorated for the New Year's celebration.
The hotel also boasts several excellent eateries as well
leisure facilities. The Conrad Hong Kong is conveniently
located near the subway system, which provides easy
access to all of Hong Kong.
While the luxury hotels in Hong Kong are extraordinary,
there are also many wonderful, less expensive hotels in
the area. Across the harbor in Kowloon's Tsim Sha Tsui
area are many hotels, several with beautiful views of
Hong Kong Island as well as the harbor. There are
plenty of shops, restaurants and nightlife in Tsim Sha
Tsui and the Island can be easily accessed by subway
or by taking a picturesque ferry ride across the harbor.
Two moderately priced hotels to try in this area are the
Hyatt Regency and the Holiday Inn. The Hyatt Regency
Hong Kong is in a great location in Tsim Sha Tsui, close
to shopping and a subway station. Many travelers find
good sale prices for the Hyatt's rooms. The Holiday Inn
Golden Mile is a typical Holiday Inn, with a fitness center
and a nice pool. This hotel is also near the subway and
it's an easy walk to the ferry.
Planning a trip to Hong Kong can feel a bit
overwhelming -- there is so much to see and do, and it's
virtually impossible to include every activity. From the
worlds largest night parade and top Hong Kong
attractions to great dining and exciting nightlife, you're
sure to enjoy the Pearl of the Orient! Choosing the right
Hong Kong hotel will make your journey more enjoyable
for all the must-see and must-do experiences, during
Hong Kong's biggest event of the year.
