Fodor's Expert Review W Hong Kong
1 Austin Rd. W, Kowloon, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong Fodor's Choice
A hip, young vibe prevails, though guest rooms are veritable urban oases—soundproof and spacious; alternately colorful or sleek on even and odd floors; and equipped with mood lighting, surround audiovisual systems, big mirrors, and even bigger harbor views. The adjacent Elements mall is a shopaholic's dream, the 76th-floor outdoor heated pool area feels like a gathering spot for the young and the restless, and ultimate relaxation awaits at Bliss spa. Despite the West Kowloon address, it's very easy to get island-side by train or car (Western Tunnel is down the street).
PROS
- spacious and colorful rooms
- panoramic views
- exciting bars and restaurants
CONS
- noisy atmosphere outside rooms
- construction nearby
- long walk from the MTR through the mall
