Hong Kong | The World's First Peninsula, the Most Standard Definition of Old Money Style 🇭🇰

#hongkonghotel This is the oldest existing hotel in Hong Kong, having opened in 1928. At its inception, it was the tallest and most modern building in the city, witnessing the fall of Hong Kong and serving as a social backyard for last century's Hong Kong stars. With a Rolls-Royce fleet and all-silver tableware, if one were to choose a hotel that best represents Hong Kong, my vote would go to The Peninsula. Prime Location: Upon its opening, it was strategically located at Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront, near the then terminus of the Eurasian railway, which has now become the Space Museum. The then Governor, Stubbs, stated its goal was to be "the best hotel east of the Suez Canal." Now, its transportation accessibility remains superior, just one MTR stop away from the West Kowloon High-Speed Rail Station, and within a 10-minute walk to sightseeing buses and the Star Ferry. The first and second floors of The Peninsula house many luxury jewelry stores, adjacent to K11, making shopping extremely convenient. In the early morning, one can simply cross the road to stroll along the Avenue of Stars.
