"This design-forward sanctuary in East Tsim Sha Tsui hides its showstopper on the ninth floor: an open-air heated pool with unobstructed views of Victoria Harbour. It’s Hong Kong’s most distinctive swim and the scene turns especially lively during sunset happy hour." - Bethany Platanella
"Set in Hung Hom near Tsim Sha Tsui’s Nathan Road, this “hotel with a purpose” from Hong Kong Polytechnic University is a design‑savvy haven with meticulously curated themed suites. A standout by local fashion luminary Vivienne Tam brings distinctive character while granting guests unparalleled vistas over the bustling harbour." - Faye Bradley
"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
"Designed by famous local architects, the stylish Hotel ICON enjoys harbour views in Tsimshatsui East Kowloon. It presents a rooftop outdoor heated pool, pampering spa services and a health club. ICON is a 5-minute walk from Hung Hom MTR Station. Causeway Bay and Wan Chai District is 10 minutes via the MTR Subway. Classic rooms offer free Wi-Fi and use dark colours and warm lighting to create a cosy atmosphere. Free international and local calls, a free minibar and a smartphone with unlimited data is provided in every room. Guests may exercise at the 24-hour fitness centre or enjoy a massage at Angsana Spa. A pool bar is available for a refreshing drink while lounging by the pool. A well-equipped business centre and concierge services are also provided. Green Café serves light refreshments among indoor gardens, while international cuisine can be enjoyed at The Market. Above and Beyond presents a stunning skyline from floor 28, offering Chinese fine dining." - My Boutique Hotel (en)
"Here the high-volume name is justified: Hotel ICON is an ambitious project, with orthography to match. For starters, the team behind the hotel is comprised of international design stars. Space prohibits us from listing them all, but suffice to say that Sir Terence Conran is at the top of the marquee, while relatively minor details such as the flora are handled by the likes of the eminent French botanist Patrick Blanc. (For the record, it’s not just any old flower arrangement, but a visually striking vertical garden — a bloom of green against all the gleaming white marble of a soaring lobby.)" - Tablet Hotels
