The Bar/Lounge at Cordis, Hong Kong

"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"

"As a result, the hotel attracts an edgy crowd of young artists and professionals who mingle under Christmas lights and paper lanterns in the Backyard bar late into the Kowloon night"

"Rooms and suites come in no less than eleven varieties and feature amenities such as flat-screen TVs with DVD/CD players and iHome systems, floor-to-ceiling windows, Langham’s signature Dream Big Beds, oversized baths and showers, coffee makers, mini-bars and safes"

"The recently opened Backyard lounge's mango trees and waterfall create "a really cool, quiet outdoor space in a densely populated city"

"Club Place rooms have access to the lounge for breakfast and evening snacks, late checkout and free Internet access"
