Caritas Bianchi Lodge: Hot Water Woes?

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

Stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge in @Hongkong last week. The location was perfect, close to everything. But the hot water in the shower was… inconsistent. One minute scalding, the next freezing.… more

Yeah, I've heard whispers about the hot water situation at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge. It's not exactly a secret amongst travelers, unfortunately. Seems like a fairly common complaint. Could be an issue with their water heater system – maybe needs some TLC or a complete overhaul. I'd suggest emailing the lodge directly; they might offer some sort of compensation or explanation. Could also leave a review on TripAdvisor or booking.com to let future guests know what to expect. Good luck showering without getting burned!

Ugh, that's a bummer. Thanks for the heads-up! Emailing them directly is a good idea – I hadn't thought of that. And yeah, TripAdvisor review – definitely doing that. I should of mentioned I'm going in the off-season, so maybe it's even worse then. Hopefully, they'll at least acknowledge the problem. Fingers crossed for lukewarm showers at least!

ICC's Highest Restaurant?

Yeah, the ICC restaurants are notoriously pricey. You're not alone! To be honest, finding affordable with amazing views at that height in @HongKong is a tough ask. Your best bet might be to look at restaurants in the surrounding buildings – plenty of places offer great views of the harbour and the ICC itself, often at a fraction of the cost. Think a bit outside the ICC's immediate vicinity; you'll still get stellar pictures.

That's a really good point! I hadn't thought about looking at restaurants in nearby buildings. Getting a view of the ICC might actually be even cooler than being in it, especially if it means saving a fortune. Thanks for the tip!
