City hotel guide
Hong Kong
Hong Kong is a harbour-framed city shaped by the contrast between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon: the tourism board describes Hong Kong Island as a mix of modern skyscrapers, green parks and harbour views, while Kowloon is presented as a cultural hub with history and markets. For hotel searches, useful areas listed by the Hong Kong Tourism Board include Central, Sheung Wan, Wan Chai and Causeway Bay on Hong Kong Island, and Tsim Sha Tsui, Tsim Sha Tsui East, West Kowloon, Mong Kok and Yau Ma Tei on the Kowloon side. From Hong Kong International Airport, the Airport Express links the airport with the city and Central business hub in as little as 24 minutes; the airport also points travellers to public buses serving Hong Kong and taxis for flexible point-to-point trips. When choosing where to stay, the practical split is harbour access and skyline views around Tsim Sha Tsui and Central, business and dining convenience on the Island side, or Kowloon’s markets, cultural sights and transport nodes.

Getting there & around
From the airport
Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) is the main airport. The Airport Express is usually easiest for first arrivals: about 24 minutes to Hong Kong Station in Central, about 22 minutes to Kowloon Station, then taxi, MTR or hotel transfer onward. Cityflyer airport buses are useful for direct stops in Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Wan Chai or Causeway Bay; allow roughly 50-80 minutes depending on route and traffic. Taxis are straightforward with luggage; use the urban red taxi queue for Hong Kong Island or Kowloon and expect roughly 30-50 minutes to central areas in normal traffic.

Around the city
Use the MTR as the backbone: it is frequent, signed in English and Chinese, and covers most hotel areas. Get an Octopus card or tourist Octopus at the airport or MTR stations for MTR, buses, trams, ferries and convenience stores. Star Ferry is practical between Tsim Sha Tsui and Central/Wan Chai; Hong Kong Tramways is useful for short Hong Kong Island hops. Check the exact MTR exit letter before leaving stations, because exits can be several blocks apart.

Dining
T'ang Court
Comfort and luxury partly explain the popularity of this firm favourite with foodies, thanks to plush fabrics, beautifully dressed tables and Chinese art, but the skill and experience of the kitchen team also play a role. Their soups made with top-notch ingredients win the hearts of countless connoisseurs. Double-boiled Silkie chicken soup with dried scallop and abalone stands out with deep, complex umami. Other specialities include Peking duck and baked stuffed crab shell.
WebsiteCaprice
One of Hong Kong's most glamorous and elegant restaurants, Caprice also commands impressive harbour views and always delivers an amazing experience. With chef Guillaume Galliot at the helm, the kitchen excels at harmonious, high-calibre French fare – it features premium ingredients, demonstrates superb techniques and shows a mastery of flavours. Only prix-fixe menus are served. Check out the stunning wine list and dazzling selection of cheeses.

Sushi
Tin Lung Heen
Aptly named the ‘sky dragon pavilion’ in Chinese, this grand restaurant on the 102nd floor of a skyscraper is lavishly appointed in red wood veneer. Its huge windows flood the room in natural light, making it a perfect sunset or city nightscape viewing point. Signatures include chicken soup with fish maw double-boiled in coconut and honey-glazed char siu. Dim sum lunch presents a plethora of bite-sized goodies, whose portions can be tailored to your party size.
WebsiteNoi by Paulo Airaudo
Chefs Airaudo and Troiano deliver a season-driven set menu that changes every two to three months. The 10+ courses feature a strong seafood slant with ingredients shipped daily from Japan. The signature dish on silky egg custard is infused with Ibérico ham consommé that imparts faint smokiness. The food nods to Italian traditions, but is updated with modern plating and cutting-edge technique. Excellent wine pairings elevate the whole experience.
