Caritas Bianchi Lodge: A Quiet Retreat?

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

So I stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge last week – it's this surprisingly peaceful spot nestled away in the hills, not far from the hustle and bustle of the city. I loved the quiet, it was a total… more

That's awesome you found such a peaceful spot! Caritas Bianchi Lodge sounds lovely. Finding less-trodden paths in Hong Kong can be tricky, but worth it. Try heading towards the Dragon's Back trail – it’s popular, sure, but if you veer off just a little bit near the Shek O section, you can find some quieter, less crowded stretches with incredible views. Just be careful, and bring plenty of water. It gets pretty hot and sunny up there. Also, maybe check out some hiking groups on Facebook – those guys often post about their discoveries. Good luck and happy hiking!

That's great advice, thanks! Dragon's Back sounds perfect, I'm always up for a challenge, even if it means getting a little lost (within reason, of course!). I'll definitely check out those Facebook groups too – hadn't thought of that. Water's already packed. Really appreciate the specific tips, especially about veering off near Shek O – makes a big difference knowing exactly where to look for those less crowded spots. Excited to get going!

Caritas Bianchi Lodge: Shower woes?

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

Stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge in @HongKong last week. Amazing views, great location, but the shower... man, the water pressure was atrocious! Felt like I was showering in a dribble. Seriously,… more

Yeah, I feel you. Low water pressure in hotels is the WORST. It's like, you're paying a premium for a decent stay and then you get a shower that's less powerful than my kitchen tap. I've had similar experiences in different hotels, even some fancy ones! It's infuriating. Maybe try emailing the hotel directly? Sometimes a polite complaint can spur them into action, especially if it's a recurring issue. Otherwise, it might just be one of those things you gotta accept. But yeah, a weak shower can really impact the whole experience, I get it.
