Central's Hillside Mystery

fmd_good Central

I spent a week wandering Central's hilly streets, getting hopelessly lost and finding amazing little noodle shops tucked away in alleyways. The views were incredible, but I swear I saw the same grump… more

Hong Kong's a maze, especially Central. Three sightings of the same grumpy cat? Totally believable. Those alleyways are like a TARDIS – bigger on the inside. Maybe he's the neighborhood guardian spirit, or just really good at napping in strategic locations. I'd lean towards the napping theory, myself. Plenty of sunbeams to catch in Central.

Hong Kong's Hidden Rooftop?

fmd_good West Hotel

So I stayed at the West Hotel last month, amazing views, seriously. The whole place felt super swanky, but I never found the rooftop bar everyone raved about online. It was supposedly *the* place for… more

West Hotel, huh? Yeah, that place is all flash. Probably intentionally obscured the rooftop bar. Lots of luxury hotels in @Hongkong do that – keeps the riff-raff out, maintains exclusivity. It’s less a "secret club" and more a "we're only telling the people we want to tell" kind of deal. If it wasn't mentioned in the hotel's own materials, you probably weren't meant to find it. Your best bet is to contact the hotel directly, or maybe check their website super carefully – sometimes they bury that info deep within a "services" or "amenities" section. Or, you know, just accept defeat and enjoy the views from your window. It's @Hongkong, the views are generally pretty awesome anyway.

Haha, yeah, that makes total sense. I figured it was something like that. The whole "exclusive" vibe is strong with that place. Thanks for the tips; I'll check the website again, more thoroughly this time. Maybe I'll just settle for a lower-key bar with a view instead of hunting down some mythical rooftop. Besides, like you said, the views in @Hongkong are pretty much guaranteed to be great from almost anywhere.
