"The ultramodern glass complex, which includes a swanky, 600,000-square-foot shopping mall, jump-started the gentrification of the entire neighborhood."

If you feel like a lazy night in, you can choose from the hotel's huge DVD lending library; for something livelier, the on-site Backyard restaurant hosts weekend-night alfresco barbecues under fairy-lit mango trees.

"Since it opened in March 2005, the glass-and-steel Langham Place, designed by the same team behind Tokyo's Roppongi Hills complex, has quietly become the city's hidden gem."

"The Langham Place Hotel Hong Kong is unique, as it's located in Mongkok on Kowloon, not on Hong Kong Island or huddled around The Peninsula Hong Kong in Kowloon's upscale Tsim Sha Tsui neighborhood."

The hotel has exceptional dim sum at Ming Court (be sure to ask for the XO sauce, a uniquely blended, spicy Cantonese seafood sauce) and a Japanese robata-style restaurant, Tokoro, that's always a crowd pleaser.

"Peering out from one of the rooms of this colossal tower hotel, you’d never suspect for a moment that you were in Mong Kok. It’s a triumph for the district."

"The Langham Place Hong Kong rises 42 stories over the delightfully frenzied streets of Kowloon, embracing the city’s modern enchantment and East-meets-West excitement."
