If you like staying in places that make bold design statements, you will feel at home at the Mira Hotel in Hongkong. Opulent, stunning, futuristic retro-chic are some of the words people have used to describe the hotel’s interiors, which were designed by Charles Allem.
But don’t worry: the rooms are cozy and livable, with warm fabrics and design furniture, plus amenities such as free Wi-Fi, LCD TV, iPod dock, and large luxurious bath tubs. If you like to swim, there is an indoor infinity pool with numerous LED lights to create an otherworldly experience as you do your laps. The spa has nine treatment rooms, sauna, steam room, hydro pool and VIP suites; there’s also a nail bar and hair salon.
The hotel has several restaurants, most notable of which are Cuisine Cuisine, which serves innovative Cantonese cuisine; Whisk, for those who prefer French food; and Vibes, if you want to dine al fresco on the fifth floor in a lush outdoor space with open fires and running waterways.
The Mira is located in Kowloon, across Kowloon Park, so you can enjoy an outdoor stroll in one of the rare patches of greenery in the city. If you prefer to shop, the Miramar Shopping Centre, which has designer boutiques and cool shops such as Muji and Uniqlo, is connected to the hotel via a footbridge.
Room rates start at around $330.
