Today’s travellers are more interested in immersing themselves in local culture and having unique experiences than simply ticking off tourist hotspots, according to many in the travel industry.
Hotels in Hong Kong are meeting this demand by crafting heritage trails or compiling suggestions that allow visitors to venture beneath the skin of the city. The experiences each hotel suggests differ based on their brand identity and the type of guest that typically stays.
Here we look at four hotels and their suggestions for visitors, some of which may also be of interest to local Hongkongers.
1. The Park Lane Hong Kong
Next to Victoria Park and near Victoria Harbour, The Park Lane Hong Kong has published a digital guide that lists 50 “unique” experiences guests may enjoy in surrounding Causeway Bay and nearby Tin Hau and Tai Hang.
General manager Luc Bollen says the “50 Wonder Trails” guide was compiled in response to an increasing interest from overseas visitors who seek local experiences.
