"For pocket-friendly luxury Asia's largest indoor vertical garden greets guests at this cool but unpretentious hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, which also acts as a training school for hospitality students at the adjacent Hong Kong Polytechnic (although the staff are all so good at their jobs that you'd never know unless we told you). The Chinese restaurant, Above and Beyond, was designed by the late Sir Terence Conran and is as popular with locals as it is with guests, serving exquisite dim sum by day and more intricate Cantonese dishes by night (try the honey-glazed barbecue pork and the wok-fried lobster with egg white and black truffle). Modern, spacious rooms in smokey hues are packed with clever little extras, such as complimentary mini-bars, illustrated neighborhood guides, power banks you can borrow for the duration of your stay, and teeth whitening kits. A hotel that will make you smile." - Lee Cobaj
