Both the JW and Conrad are also in an excellent location (though very different from Kowloon). The Conrad in particular has nice sized rooms.
Say, what,
very small? I guess that’s a matter of definition. I believe we’re looking at 28sqm for the rooms, and 50-ish sqm for the suite? I wonder how many Hongkongers could fit in an apartment of that size? For
very small, perhaps try one of the Holiday Inn Express (or local non-chain hotels), with 13-18sqm rooms.
I struggle to see how the JW/Conrad loaction is any better than GH for tourists. It’s fine if you need to be there for business, or want to be near a transportation hub, but the location is dreadful at night —completely dead. I’d say “excellent” locations for tourists on the HK Island side would be Crowne Plaza Causeway Bay or maybe Indigo Wan Chai.
