Lanson Place Hotel
133 Leighton Rd., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China
Why We Like It
Favoring European style over typical Hong Kong glamour, Lanson Place is the thinking person’s boutique hotel, wowing us with its restful rooms and overall attention to detail. Sure, there’s no pool, spa or restaurant, but it’s a top pick all the same.
A world away from the typically flashy, ever so slightly corporate looking hotel entrances that welcome guests to many hotels in this city, the sturdy rendered brick of the Lanson Place Hotel in Causeway Bay creates an impression in the form of its parred back, stately solidity. Inside, guests will be impressed with the luxury boutique hotel’s attention to detail, chic décor and gorgeous understated rooms with convenient kitchenettes.
YOU SHOULD KNOW While technically in Causeway Bay, the hotel is removed from the bright lights of the city’s premier shopping district and has an appealingly quiet location.
room
Decked in neutral creams, greys, and beiges, the considered rooms are a lesson in creating the ideal hotel environment. Calm and cozy, chic but not over the top, the rooms are impeccable. Compact kitchenettes in even the standard rooms provide the chance to cook for yourself—handy in a hotel with no dedicated restaurant.

lobby
Even if the rooms weren’t so appealing, the watercolor frescoes, well-stocked bookcases, heavy drapes and low-slung armchairs of the lobby would have you fixing to stay awhile anyway.
gym
A neat, compact gym has a line of top of the range machines that provide everything you need for a full workout.
dining
The hotel has no full restaurant—offset in part by the kitchenettes in the rooms—but it does serve a buffet breakfast to guests.
drinking
Guests can enjoy a drink in the lounge or indoor courtyard.

LOCATION
Getting Around
The hotel’s location on the periphery of Causeway Bay offers a great escape from the buzz of the neighborhood but benefits from being just a short walk from the heart of Times Square and its restaurants and bars. Guests can walk to causeway Bay Station in 6 minutes for MTR connections.
Restaurants
Hip, contemporary restaurants line the pedestrianized walkway for ‘Food Street’ aka Houston Street towards the harbour at the edge of Causeway Bay. Take a stroll and take your pick from the rich pickings. For something a little more traditionally Asian, visit Din Tai Fung (1-minute walk) and eat some of the best dumplings you’ll ever try. Dumpling making is an art at this famous Taiwanese chain and visitors will not be disappointed.
