Central Park Hotel

Average: $200 per night

I rate it: 4/5

This hotel is one I really like in Hong Kong, because of its great location, well-groomed staff and beautiful décor, similar to The Scarlet in Singapore. 

The staff really go out of their way to help you get around places, look up locations on maps and converse to taxi drivers for you. I know staff are obligated to do that, but this is one hotel where I felt that the staff are genuine, and that is important to me.

The rooms are extremely small though. Accommodation in Hong Kong is notorious for being shoebox-sized, so this did impact my rating for the hotel.

There are no extended amenities that I can remember, in fact, the lounge was not open yet when I visited, so there was no room service. But they may have now.

Actually, the location is near many major shopping malls and streets, if you venture out with a map. The locals are not very friendly and mostly speak Cantonese, so you may have to be self-reliant if you are walking around a lot.

I truly enjoyed my long stay at this hotel, and they were nice enough to hold my luggage for a night when I went to Macau.

The staff really left a good impression on me and I highly recommend this lovely hotel.
