Hotels in Hong Kong
Hong Kong, being a buzzing city and is the southern gateway to China
certainly will have many hotels to suit tourists and visitors of every budget
from bed and breakfast cheap hotels to the super luxurious accommodation for
the rich and famous. Below is a description of three popular and good hotels
in Hong Kong.
The Peninsula Hong Kong
The Peninsula Hong Kong, perhaps the most famous high-end luxury hotel in Hong
Kong, has long been hailed as one of the finest hotels in the world. The hotel
was built in the 1920s and was dubbed as "The Grand Dame of the Far East". It
is a blend of the best in Eastern and Western hospitality, unmatched grandeur
and distinguished elegance.
The hotel's opulent rooms are comfortable and stylish. They are
furnished with advanced technology for the convenience of its wealthy hotel
guests.
Peninsula Hotel guest service is so distinctive that it
lavish guests with a fleet of Rolls-Royce cars and helicopter shuttle service
from the hotel's rooftop helipad for its guest's transportation to and from
Hong Kong International Airport and in and around Hong Kong.
Then again, such luxury comes with a price and rooms in
The Peninsula Hong Kong can be pretty stiff for the good old common folks.

Eaton Hotel Hong Kong
For those who think that The Peninsular Hotel is too pricey, the Eaton Hotel
Hong Kong may be the hotel of your choice when you are in Hong Kong. This
four-star hotel can be found on Hong Kong's famous Nathan Road in downtown
Kowloon.
Having undergone some major refurbishment and renovation recently, the
hotel now have very comfortable and clean guest rooms, six restaurants, a bar,
a roof-top swimming pool, a gymnasium
for fitness buffs and a business centre for business travelers. Not bad
for a good four-star hotel, isn't it?
More advantages for staying in the Eaton Hotel are that the MTR subway
station and the airport expressway are just minutes away from the hotel and
because it is in Nathan Road, guests can gain direct access to major tourist
attractions and Hong Kong's financial business district.
Langham Hotel
Let's move a tad up-market to look at another popular and good hotel. The
Langham Hotel Hong Kong can be said to be one of the finest five-star luxury
hotels. This hotel is furbished with an elegant European–style theme and is
situated in Kowloon's busiest commercial and entertainment district,
Tsimshatsui.
Staying in Langham Hotel comes with the convenience of having the
Harbour City Shopping Centre and Ocean Terminal at its doorstep. The hotel is
also just a few minutes' walk away from the Star Ferry, Victoria Harbour,
Tsimshatsui MTR station and the Kowloon – Canton Railway station where you can
take a train into mainland China.
The Langham Hotel was cited by the US Travel and Leisure magazine as one
of the "Top 50 Hotels in Asia" in Aug 2007 and "World's Top 500 Hotels" in Jan
2007. This Good Hotels In Hong Kong article was written on
