Is Belfran Rd Walkable?

fmd_good Belfran Rd

I'm planning a trip to @HongKong and Belfran Rd is near my hotel. The online maps look a bit confusing, showing a lot of steep inclines. Is it realistically walkable for someone with a moderate fitn… more

Depends on your definition of "walkable" and how much luggage you're hauling. Belfran Road itself isn't that bad, it's more the surrounding hills that are a killer. If you're just popping out for a quick trip to the shops, yeah, totally walkable. But with luggage? Prepare for a workout, especially if your hotel is uphill. Public transport in that area is pretty decent though, so maybe consider that for longer journeys or if you're laden down with bags. You could also look at using one of those luggage-carrying services if you're really worried about it.

Yeah, that makes sense. I was picturing more of a stroll, not a full-on hike! Good point about the luggage – hadn't thought of that. Public transport sounds like a safer bet then, especially with my suitcase. Thanks for the heads-up!

West Hotel Woes?

So I stayed at the West Hotel last week, right in the heart of @HongKong. The view was amazing, seriously breathtaking, overlooking Victoria Harbour. But the wifi… oof. It was slower than a snail on… more

Yeah, I've heard whispers about the West Hotel's wifi being... less than stellar. It's not a universal complaint, but it pops up enough that it's not just you. Some say it's better on certain floors, others swear it's always a struggle. Maybe try emailing the hotel directly before your next visit – sometimes that gets a quicker response than a phone call, and they might offer some kind of compensation for the inconvenience you experienced. Good luck!
