About This Guide
Causeway Bay's density is its charm — nowhere else in Hong Kong can you move from a Cantonese barbecue restaurant to a Japanese izakaya to a dim sum palace within a single city block. The shopping is exceptional, the MTR is central, and the accommodation options range from budget-friendly business hotels to well-appointed mid-range properties that punch well above their price.
