Where to stay in Hong Kong.
It’s important to note, there are two main parts of central Hong Kong: Kowloon, located on the mainland north of Victoria Harbour, known for its vibrant street markets, shopping districts like Tsim Sha Tsui, and a more traditional local vibe; and Hong Kong Island, situated directly south of the harbour, home to the city’s financial center, luxury shopping, and attractions like Victoria Peak.
Kerry Hotel by Shangri-La.
Marketed as an ‘urban-resort’, Kerry Hotel is tucked along the Hung Hom Bay waterfront in Kowloon. It’s got sweeping harbour views, luxe interiors, and if I’d remembered to pack my bathers, I would’ve indulged in a dip in the sparkly blue pool — which overlooks the aformentioned harbour, by the way.
The rooms are big by Hong Kong standards, with floor-to-ceiling windows which provided the perfect conditions for the OOTD videos that I’ll never post.
Then there’s the bathroom… stay with me. A major gripe I have with hotels, not that I’m in them very often, is if a bathroom was designed with women in mind. By this I mean, enough counter space for my overpacked toiletries and makeup bags, a big enough mirror that’s not too far away and, of course, some decent freakin’ lighting. I’m happy to report, my friends, this ensuite did not disappoint.
