Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong

OVERVIEW

If you’re heading to Hong Kong, do things properly: stay in Mandarin Oriental’s first and flagship hotel, the Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong. The hotel is almost as legendary as the city itself, located slap bang in the middle of the seething metropolis with the signature Mandarin Oriental blend of faultless service, comfortable luxury and chic design.

Overlooking Victoria Harbour, the hotel sits sweetly in the heart of the shopping district so it’s not far to take your bags (or have the hotel collect them for you). You’ll even find the luxe Landmark Mall situated right underneath the skyscraper. As you’d expect from Mandarin Oriental there’s a fabulous spa where you can while away a day: it’s spread over two storeys and is home to a hammam, sauna, pools and mani-pedi bar.

One of the best bits of the hotel is, naturally, its staff, many of whom have been with the hotel for years. Concierge favourites Giovanni and Danny are popular thanks to their sharp know-how of the city’s sights, but everyone is impeccably trained and lovely – without exception.

What to do

Whilst there is so much to do within the hotel, take time to explore your surroundings. Central district, as its name suggests, is at the heart of the action of this cosmopolitan city. Glitzy shopping malls contrast with the traditional markets where can you buy absolutely anything from goldfish to gold watches. Take the tram up The Peak for panoramic views of Hong Kong’s famous skyline or cross the harbour by boat to one of the outer lying islands.
