Hong Kong June 2009 - Day 2 | Saturday, July 04, 2009
On our second day in Hong Kong - we moved to Park Lane Hotel, still in Causeway Bay.Like i said, sis was there for work and she along with her other colleagues have already arrange to stay in Park Lane - under the company's arrangement ^__^. Im just tagging along!
But i must say - Park Lane is very nice. As compared to MetroPark & Rosedale - Park Lane is uber nice!! Unfortunately i didnt managed to take any pics of the building from outside as its the main road.So here are some shots of the hotel from inside.
This is the lobby/receiption. Right next to it is the coffee shop - you can the cake displays....  On the left is the tour counters. Then the concierge counter right next to the entrance.
 Me at my floor. 24th Floor. And here are shots of the room from different angles!!Its big,room and spacey!! hahaha all the same meaning..duuhh. But seriously,it was a very comfortable room.And it has nice soft pillows!! i thought for sure it would give me neck pain in the morning coz no support but 4 nights i slept there - i woke up with no pain on my neck!! it was sooo comfy!! And yes, the tea counter!! hahahaha they have great selection of teas - Early Grey & Jasmines - my favourites!! i hope you guys arent gonna think that im such a country pumpkin...but heck i dont care. =ppppp . Here are shots of the bathroom!!But i love the bathroom! its huge!! The sink area...the tub...the side mirror ( my favourite!! haha cant help it if im a vain pot n i need constant reassurance by lookin at the mirror up close!! hahaha) and our daily dosage of Watson Mineral water! And of coz you have the usual stuff - shower gel...shampoo...conditioner...toothbrush...shower cap....and the black jar ?? scroll down to see whats in it. and on yes yes...the weight machine! its glass and nope..it doesnt break!!
  The Black Jar - at first i was extremely curious as to why on earth would there be a Black Jar that resembles a Ash Urn be doing in the loo.....hmm...spooky right?? so of coz i opened it! and TA-Da!! its filled with cotton wools!! hahahaa so weird and yet funny!! hehe well atleast it was funny to me and my sis!! ^___^ Then next, we explore the area around our hotel- of coz!! hahahaa We discover Fashion Walk !! both Fashion Walk 1 & 2.
 
 Check out buildings like these are common in Hong Kong. You have like shopping malls or stores downstairs and aparment upstairs. Well atleast i think it was apartments coz i can see clothes hanging outside to dry. Imagine if i live in one of these apartments. And i go " Gosh I had a lousy day. I need retail therapy - hey lets go down to Marc Jacobs and get new bag!!! " ------aaaaaaaah,that would be a dream!!
Well anyway - Fashion Walk 1 & 2 is really another shopping haven! Loads of designer labels and stores to check out!! Gosh...i miss walking down that street already................ |
