#YeenTravelogue: Two Macdonnell Road Hong Kong
Saturday, May 21, 2016
Every time when I plan my travel schedule and accommodation,
what comes first on my mind? Spacious.
I always being “imprinted” by people around me that Hong
Kong’s hotels and accommodations are small, small, and small rooms with high
charges.
This was my first visit to Hong Kong for business, alone. So
I have to make sure that I’m doing the right choice because I always wanted a
spacious room to rest and work, perhaps. (Oops, I travelled in HK from 28th April to 5th May 2016)
Picked Central area at first, and I’ve literally browse all
possible hotels based on ratings and of course, the price. Two Macdonnell Road
was my choice after surveyed a couple of places. Still, I’m taking room space
as my top concern.
Two Macdonnell Road is located in Mid-Levels, a vibrant
residential neighborhood in Hong Kong. It sits right next to the tranquil Hong
Kong Park and Hong Kong Botanical Gardens whilst within walking distance to
Central CBD, the Landmark and Lan Kwai Fong. The property claimed that it has
213 well-appointed studios, one and two-bedroom apartments, ranging from 336 to
750 sq. ft. / 31 to 69 sq. m. With the renowned hallmark of charming, personalized
service by Lanson Place.
It took me half hour from Hong Kong International Airport to
Two Macdonnell Road, and the lobby is at the 8th Floor. I’ve picked
Junior Suite which is 48.7 square meter in whole. Surprisingly, I was impressed to have such great space of living in Hong Kong.
Filled with Kitchen utensils and cooking area with proper
dining table and the room is parted between living room and bedroom, making sure that you
can sleep peacefully while your friends are busy watching TV or cooking for
food. Basic utilities and tools are provided.
Overall, yes, I enjoyed the stay as it gives extremely peaceful, quiet atmosphere and I
can lie on bed while pondering at the mid-level mountain view. Feels like home… It's definitely great for me to revisit when I returned to HK for work or leisure. In fact, my mom was pretty impressed after I showed her these photos which I've took.
Speaking of it's convenience, you can grab a taxi easily to LKF with roughly 22 - 30HKD or to Causeway Bay at 45-50HKD. Or the hotel itself offers shuttle bus to IFC Mall, Admiralty MTR Station on weekdays.

wow, Ashley, it's super spacious for a HK hotel. Looks nice and clean, won't mind keeping this in mind whenever we have a chance to visit HK again. It also sounds like pretty convenient and not too far from places of interest.
ReplyDeleteThe last I stayed was at Dorsette, not too bad either though the room is not as spacious as yours. It is within walking distance to some shopping malls and garden which was awesome! Lots of hawker/restaurant HK good *_^
I wonder how much you paid per night for this room?

Well, Jeann, it seems to be my second home in HK
DeleteHello Ashley! May I know if taxi drivers are aware of its location so that I'll just mention the hotel and will not get lost?
