If you feel like a lazy night in, you can choose from the hotel's huge DVD lending library; for something livelier, the on-site Backyard restaurant hosts weekend-night alfresco barbecues under fairy-lit mango trees.

"Since it opened in March 2005, the glass-and-steel Langham Place, designed by the same team behind Tokyo's Roppongi Hills complex, has quietly become the city's hidden gem." Full review

"The Langham Place Hotel Hong Kong is unique, as it's located in Mongkok on Kowloon, not on Hong Kong Island or huddled around The Peninsula Hong Kong in Kowloon's upscale Tsim Sha Tsui neighborhood." Full review

The hotel has exceptional dim sum at Ming Court (be sure to ask for the XO sauce, a uniquely blended, spicy Cantonese seafood sauce) and a Japanese robata-style restaurant, Tokoro, that's always a crowd pleaser.

All 166 rooms are spacious and decent, but try to avoid lower-floor rooms facing Nathan Rd, because they can be noisy.

Star Service
