Views:

Langham has no view, period. Langham Place has views of the city and the harbour in a distance.

Proximity to Subway:

Both fairly close to Subway. Langham Place is connected directly to Mong Kok station, though you still have to go through the mall first. Langham is theoretically next to one of the tunnels that connect to the subway system, but in reality, it's faster and shorter to walk on the street for a couple of short blocks to get to Tsim Sha Tsui station. Mong Kok is 3 stops from Tsim Sha Tsui, so if you're coming from Central, it's about 6 minutes further. Both stops extremely crowded.

Langham is an older and more conventional hotel but also the flagship of the Langham chain so you won't go wrong with either hotel. But the LP in Mong Kok is my favourite, interesting area and location (a bit like Times Square).
