$ | 4 Robinson Rd., Hong Kong, Hong Kong Fodor's Choice

The Sunday champagne brunch is one of the city's finest (best to book early).

Rooms above a theater and shopping complex come in a variety of welcoming styles, from an East-meets-West decor in some to airy, bright, functional contemporary design in others—all are set up for maximum comfort and relaxation. So is the rooftop outdoor heated pool, designed like a Roman bath, and glass-walled gym overlooking Kowloon on all sides. Kowloon's most famous night market on Temple Street is just a stone's throw away, and the lively nighttime street scene in Mong Kok to the north and the more touristy attractions of Tsim Sha Tsui to the south are about a 15-minute walk in either direction.

Pros

To bring the story to life, Wanders & yoo design house intermingles antique Chinese accents, such as peony details and latticed woodwork, alongside futuristic furnishings and tech-friendly touches. The neighborhood nightlife still errs on the unseemly side, but the hours-long, half-off happy hour at the hotel’s Supergiant Tapas & Cocktails bar and outdoor terrace makes up for it.

Novotel Hong Kong Citygate

$$ | 51 Man Tung Rd., Lantau Island, Hong Kong

This hotel's out-of-the-way location on Lantau Island may not immediately strike you as desirable: however, Lantau has been developing as a tourist attraction in its own right, and the island's natural beauty is finally getting the publicity it deserves. Situated right at the island's main transport hub, Novotel Citygate is perfectly placed for exploring Lantau's sights. Buses to Tai O, a remote fishing village on the other side of the island, leave just five minutes from here on foot; the Ngong Ping 360 cable car is also close by. Experienced trekkers can even try walking the Lantau hills from here, although most of the trails are considered moderate to difficult. The concierge can organize white dolphin sightseeing trips, which depart from the nearby pier. Guest rooms are spacious and bright, with large windows and open bathrooms, offering spectacular views of either the sea or the Lantau hills and cable cars. Should the weather not hold up, you may find other pleasures in the adjoining Citygate outlet mall and cinemas, not to mention the 30-minute MTR ride from Tung Chung to Central.

Pros

  • Ideal location for exploring the island
  • Quiet
  • Big outdoor pool
