Book Your Hong Kong, Asia Vacation

Top Hotels in Hong Kong

Choosing to spend your vacation in beautiful Hong Kong was your first step in the right direction. Now it’s time to continue marching toward progress by reserving one of these popular Hong Kong hotels. Once your accommodation is secured, your trip to Hong Kong will be here before you know it—you might want to start brushing up on your Chinese—more specifically your Cantonese.

• JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong: Centrally located near downtown Hong Kong, the JW Marriott is the ultimate in luxury living during your Asian adventure. Once you enter the hotel’s lush lobby, you’ll be caught off guard by the high ceilings, golden tones, and smiling front desk agent who greets you. Inside your room, you’ll be taken aback by floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping views of the city.
• City Garden Hotel: For travelers with a passion for fashion, City Garden Hotel is the ideal accommodation. Causeway Bay, the pinnacle in Hong Kong shopping, is roughly a ten-minute walk away from the hotel. After days spent eye-guzzling window displays in the premier shopping district, retreat to your room and enjoy plush bedding, minimalist design, and a flat-screen television.
• Conrad Hong Kong: Including rooms with views of either Victoria Harbor or Victoria Peak, the Conrad Hong Kong is as sumptuous as hotels come. Pad around your expansive marble-floored bathroom in a fluffy bathrobe and slippers (provided by the hotel, of course), and catch up on some much-needed sleep with the aid of your suite’s blackout curtains.
• Hotel Jen Hong Kong: Hong Kong is a beautiful blend of chaos and contemporary. After days of touring the city by foot, there’s no better way to unwind than by taking a dip in the Hotel Jen’s rooftop pool or going for a jog inside the state-of-the-art fitness center.

Major Attractions

Hong Kong is known for its drastic contrasts. From mile high skyscrapers to peaceful waterfalls in Tai Po, your Hong Kong vacation will be full of unexpected surprises. Don’t wait and leave everything up to chance though, dear traveler, and instead schedule some of the best attractions into your itinerary. Before you delve into the city’s secrets, take a ride on the Peak Tram for aerial views of Victoria Harbor and downtown Hong Kong and its impressive array of buildings. This ride will feature beautiful scenery and help you collect your bearings in Hong Kong.

Spend the rest of your family vacation in Hong Kong soaking in the highlights. The bustling streets of Mong Kok boast Hong Kong cuisine, massage parlors, and clothing stores—there’s also a goldfish market for travelers interested in bringing home a fishy friend. Sheung Wan is the go-to neighborhood for viewing inspiring street art, including massive murals as well as tiny tags. No matter how you choose to spend your day, there’s no question that your evening should end viewing the lightshow over Victoria Harbor. The nightly event lights up more than 40 buildings on each side of the harbor in a spirited display of projected colored lights accompanied by energetic music.

Festivals and Events

In either January or February, Hong Kong throws its biggest celebration of the year. Be forewarned though, Chinese New Year is not for those who tire easily. The multiday celebration includes nighttime parades featuring massive floats and cultural performances, firework displays over the harbor, and horse racing for wanderers who are willing to bet on wild cards. Additionally, many vendors in Hong Kong will promote sales and discounts at their stores during the festivities—so you can put the money you saved by booking Hong Kong vacation packages on Travelocity to good use.

Since 1976, Hong Kong has hosted an international dragon boat race. The Hong Kong International Dragon Boat Races event occurs each summer and draws athletes and spectators from all over the world. Ooh and aah over the colorfully crafted boats as you watch them tear down the harbor, or sip a cold one in the event’s beer garden as you look on in awe.

With Hong Kong package deals, you can explore one of the most interesting and underrated destinations in Asia. Take to the city streets to enjoy taro-flavored egg waffles or reacquaint yourself with forgotten childhood friends at Hong Kong Disneyland. No matter how you choose to spend your international sojourn, you’re bound to get a taste of life in Hong Kong for a fraction of the price when you book through Travelocity.
