Lan Kwai Fong Hotel @ Kau U Fong
Urban boutique with an oriental twist. Contemporary rooms dressed in traditional Chinese details — think carved wood accents and scarlet restaurant decor rather than anything museum-formal. The crowd skews business travelers, couples, and food-focused visitors who want to eat and drink their way through Central.
Book a Harbour View room from the 6th floor up for the best views; rooms on lower floors look into surrounding buildings
Why It Matters
The hotel's Michelin-starred celebrity magnet Celebrity Cuisine (by Chef Cheng Kam-Fu) operated here from 2007 until it closed during the hotel's COVID quarantine period. The in-house restaurant has since been replaced by Aap Ba Din. The hotel is also one of the few properties in the area with a complimentary daily wine happy hour, free lobby coffee machines around the clock, and an in-room filtered water dispenser — solid value-adds for the price point.
A 33-floor boutique hotel sitting right on the doorstep of Hong Kong's SoHo and Lan Kwai Fong districts. The rooms lean into the neighborhood's romantic energy with Chinese artefacts embedded in bed panels, oriental-style dressing mirrors, and rain showers — this isn't just another generic city-center sleep. And the location genuinely delivers: the Central-Mid-Levels Escalator is steps away, the MTR's Sheung Wan station is a 6-minute walk, and the Macau Ferry Terminal is under a kilometer.
Where You'll Stay
11 room types available
City View Room
The smallest room category at 19m² — this is compact by any standard. Decorated with a light oriental touch, it looks out onto the city rather than the harbour. Fine for solo travelers or couples who plan to spend most of their time out exploring. Has flat-screen TV, minibar fridge, rain shower, in-room water dispenser, and blackout curtains.
1 Double or 2 Single beds · 19 sqmConnecting City View Room
Two City View Rooms (19m² each) connected by an internal door, totaling 46m². Each room has its own private bathroom. The internal connecting door gives easy access while maintaining privacy — ideal for families with older kids or two couples traveling together. Panoramic city views.
2 rooms — 1 Double or 2 Singles in each (subject to availability) · 46 sqmConnecting Harbour View Room
The harbour-view version of the connecting room setup. Two harbour-facing rooms joined by a connecting door, totaling 46m² with two separate bathrooms. Best for families or two couples who want harbour views and the option to give each group their own space.
2 rooms — 1 Double or 2 Singles in each (subject to availability) · 46 sqmDeluxe City View Room
At 33m², this is where rooms start feeling genuinely comfortable rather than just functional. Features a bayside window looking out at Central's gleaming skyscrapers. Oriental decor touches throughout, plus the standard package: flat-screen TV, minibar, rain shower, and free WiFi.
1 Double or 2 Single beds · 33 sqmDeluxe City View Triple Room
The 33m² Deluxe configured for three guests, with either a double bed or two singles plus a rollaway bed (for a fee). Same bayside window with Central skyline views. Best-value option for a group of three who want a comfortable base.
1 Double or 2 Single beds plus rollaway (fee) · 33 sqmDeluxe Harbour View Room
The 33m² Deluxe Harbour View is the sweet spot for most guests — spacious enough to feel like a real room, with dual windows for natural light and genuine harbour views. The oriental-style dressing mirror and Chinese artefacts in the bed panel give it more character than a standard hotel room. Quality mattress and premium bedding included.
1 Double or 2 Single beds · 33 sqmDeluxe Harbour View Triple Room
The harbour-facing version of the Triple configuration. Same 33m² space with Central's iconic harbour in the windows. Harbour views plus room for three make this a crowd-pleaser.
1 Double or 2 Single beds plus rollaway (fee) · 33 sqmHarbour View Room
A step up at 23m², with partial views of Victoria Harbour. The rooms feature an oriental-style dressing mirror and Chinese artefacts embedded directly into the bed panel. If you're paying for harbour views, request a higher floor — views improve significantly above the 10th floor.
1 Double or 2 Single beds · 23 sqmHarbour View Suite
Located on the top floors, this 38m² suite has a separate living area and bedroom with queen bed — a legitimate suite rather than a stretched room. Full-size windows look onto Victoria Harbour and the mountain. Smart choice for longer stays where having a sofa to retreat to matters.
1 Queen bed · 38 sqmHarbour View Suite with Balcony
The top of the food chain at 42m² — on the top floors, with a private balcony opening directly onto Victoria Harbour views. Separate living area plus queen bedroom in classic oriental style. This is the one to book for a special occasion or an anniversary stay in Hong Kong. The balcony alone justifies the upgrade.
1 Queen bed · 42 sqmMountain View Room
Same 19m² footprint as the City View Room but looking out toward Hong Kong's green mountain scenery rather than the urban skyline. Unusual for Central Hong Kong where most hotels look at glass towers. Same amenities package — shower, minibar, free WiFi.
