It
is finally revealed!
Rekay’s four days in Hong Kong this year 2017. It is my
hotel review that has been together with me throughout the trip at Hong Kong.
As much as it has taken over a week to edit, I have prepared this with a lot of
details.
I hope this is great information for people that are planning to go to
Hong Kong.
It
has been more than 10 times that Rekay has been to Hong Kong. For business
trips, I have no options but for a vacation just for myself I totally chose a
Rekaystyle hotel. My difficult appetite regarding location, design, and service
got me Lanson Place as the hotel for this trip to Hong Kong.
Location
of Lanson Place[BOOK HERE]
For
short vacations, the location is most important no matter what. Especially when
things are all focused in the city like Hong Kong, you have to go around from
spot to spot swiftly. So if the hotel is far from the tourist spots with uncomfortable
transportation, what can be more stressful than that? Just shop and drop off
your bags then shower if you are sweaty. In order to save money, it is best to
get a hotel in the city center.
The
reason I chose Lanson Place was because of its prime location.
1. It is located at
Causeway Bay that can be called the mecca of Hong Kong shopping. It is written
kindly that you can get here by leaving through Exit F from the Causeway Bay
subway station (located in map A). Takes just five minutes on foot from the
exit.
2. Walk just one
block from the hotel and there is the tram line. [Located in map B] Rekay got a
golden ticket that provided unlimited access to the tram tour and tram rides by
the hotel promotion. I enjoyed my full three days on the tram.
3. Another chic
Hong Kong shopping hot spot other than Tsim Tsa Tsui, Lee Garden. [Located in
map C] It is 3 minutes from the hotel by foot! Lee Garden has luxury brands and
fancy Hong Kong local brands along with modern cafes and restaurants. It is a
place that you must go at Causeway Bay.

Now,
shall we check into the Lanson Place hotel? As soon as I arrived at the hotel,
a kind doorman picked up my trunks and introduced me to the check-in desk on
the 2nd floor of the hotel. Unlike ordinary hotels, the first floor
is decorated as an indoor terrace. You can get your check-in more privately on
the second floor.
It
was selected as Trip Advisor’s 2017 small luxury hotel. You can meet great
design and service that is no less than a luxury hotel. Personally, I loved the
warm tone interior that was welcoming with its classic and elegant style. On
the 2nd lounge, breakfast is served and on the other side, there is a
small library with trendy books. At night, it changes into a lounge bar that
serves cocktails and finger food!
Although
there is no other café or restaurant run by the hotel, it is great because
there are not many outsiders entering the hotel. It was pleasant because there
were a lot of spaces where only people staying at the hotel could use
privately.
Deluxe Room | 15F
Finally
check-in! I was able to get a corner room on a high floor through my special
request as I booked the hotel!
As
I had expected, I was very statisfied with the design of the room. The room
with a shade of pink that was of French chic emotions had a great open city
view. I almost wished it was my home. Sunshine which is the must have condition
for beautiful photos filled the room. (It is easily blocked by the automatic
blinds) In addition, the spacious room that could fit in two large size trunks
along with a cozy separate bed room! Definitely a pleasure.

smartphone with unlimited wifi provided by the hotel and the additional heater
that will protect me from the air conditioning!
Another
reason why Lanson Place is so special is because of the mini kitchen installed
in every room! It is also a part that I was excited to introduce in my video.
Alhtough it is a hotel, you can cook simple meals like a service apartment. Refrigerator
with a freezer, microwave, stove, pots, and plates. (You don’t have to clean up
after yourself!)
It
is definitely something I would like to recommend to people travelling with
children, for a long time, or with particular tastes. Of course, it was best
that I could just easily take out my instant noodles from Korea.
Other
than that, there was a very special room service that provided delivery from
nearby restaurants to complement the fact that the hotel did not have its own
restaurant. It is a very great idea considering the various menu and cheaper
price than hotel food.
As
Lanson Place hotel is a boutique hotel, there are a variety of room types with
differnet designs other than the Deluxe room that Rekay stayed at. It seems
that the bright interior with an elegant mood, spacious rooms, and kitchens are
all the same for every room.
The
deluxe room type with a separate living room and bed room was the type that
Rekay styled in. There is also a Grand Deluxe type that I am showing you now.
The TV in the middle can turn around. From the bed room to the living room, you
can turn the TV around as you’d like. It is the most beautiful room in the
entire Lanson hotel.
I
will introduce facilities that are provided by Lanson Place hotel. Other than
the breakfast/café/library on the 2nd lounge floor, there are
business rooms and conference rooms where you can use PC. There is also a
self-laundry room and fresh fitness center where you can overlook the city view
of Hong Kong.
