Finding Peace?
Stayed at that Caritas Bianchi Lodge last week. The view was amazing, seriously breathtaking. But I found it hard to relax. The whole place felt...quiet, almost too quiet. Maybe it's just me, but… more
Yeah, I get that. Caritas Bianchi Lodge is…different. It's not your typical bustling Hong Kong hotel. The quiet can be unnerving, especially if you're used to the city's usual energy. I wouldn't say I felt anything "lurking," but I definitely understood the feeling of something being…off. Maybe it's the location itself? The juxtaposition of such serene peace against the backdrop of a crazy vibrant city like Hong Kong probably throws some people off. Think of it as a sensory deprivation tank, but with a killer view. It's beautiful, but intense. You should of expected a different atmosphere; it's not marketed as a party place.
Caritas Bianchi Lodge Conundrum?
Stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge in @HongKong last month. The view was incredible, seriously stunning, but the wifi... oof. It was like dial-up in the 90s. My question is: did anyone else exper… more
Yeah, the wifi at Caritas Bianchi Lodge is… infamous. I stayed there two years ago and it was the same. Absolutely abysmal. I ended up tethering to my phone.

True story! My phone battery almost died before I could get even half my pics uploaded. Tethering ate through it like crazy. I should have just waited until I got back to @Hong Kong. Live and learn, I guess. Thanks for the tip!
