Best Hong Kong Hotels
for a Staycation and Christmas Celebration

Where to Stay, Eat, Drink and be merry this Holiday Season
Gearing up for Christmas at the Peninsula

As pandemic measures have eased, hotels in Hong Kong are gearing to go all out for the Christmas celebrations once again with their different themes and activities... christmas bazaars, live music and performances, activities for children, and naturally, fantastic displays, lights and decorations.

For our local residents, this is a great time for a Staycation since all hotels are having deals that would under normal circumstances cost quite a lot more as tourist numbers are yet to return in force. This is such a fantastic time to enjoy the holiday spirit as all the hotels really put on the glitz so take advantage of the season's offers which may not be available later.

Here are some top hotels in Hong Kong and what they have on offer this Christmas: markets, christmas and holiday banquets, children activities, concerts, caroling and entertainment, and of course... Santa Claus. There is plenty to choose from whether you are celebrating with friends and/or family and children. And rest assured all activities are being conducted in accordance with latest Covid health and safety measures.
