The Best Hotels in Hong Kong
"For the socializing When you ask a Hong Kong taxi driver to take you to Man Wah (the Mandarin), the first thing they'll ask you is, ‘old or new?’ The Landmark Mandarin Oriental is the newer of the two, the fashionable little sister located on Queen's Road, a few blocks away from the original. Hemmed in by high-rises there are no views worth mentioning. Instead, all eyes are on the Joyce Wang interiors, the Michelin star food and the fashionable clientele (the hotel was said to have been a favorite of Giorgio Armani). The 113 rooms are contemporary yet cosseting, with Champagne-gold walls and dark wooden floors, angular headboards, and subtle industrial touches— anodized metals, ridged surfaces, track lighting. Then there's the spa, which unfurls over two levels and includes a swimming pool, a hammam, steam rooms, saunas, and a Bastien Gonzales Mani-Pedi studio. Amber is one of the few restaurants in Asia to have achieved a Green Michelin star." - Lee Cobaj
