In a city like Hong Kong, hotels are dime a dozen. You can find loads of them everywhere, with all your modern amenities – but after some time, they all begin to look the same.
If you’re looking to jazz up your next trip to Hong Kong, and perhaps see parts of it you’ve never seen before, check yourself into a boutique hotel instead. With their stylish interiors and cosy decor, going back to your room after an exciting day out will be the icing on the cake of an incredible vacation.
