Spent one night at Lanson Place in Causeway Bay, and thought it was great. The location is excellent, several minutes' walk from the hustle and bustle of Causeway Bay, but not particularly noisy. It's within easy walking distance of the Causeway Bay MTR as well.

Chose Lanson Place as it had been recommended by friends who live in HK, and people I know who stayed there were pleased.

The staff were very helpful. From the doormen who whisked my bags away on arrival, to the check-in staff who arranged early access to the room (I arrived at 08:00), every one was very friendly and efficient.

The room was large for HK, and comprised a kitchenette and sitting room, in addition to bathroom and bedroom (see photos). The room was very comfortable for one, and would've been comfortable for two. The room was light and very quiet, despite being in one of the most densely populated parts of HK.

One unusual thing about the room design: there is a clear glass wall between the kitchenette and bathroom. There is a basin and mirror that block the view... partially.

Overall, I really liked this hotel, and would definitely stay here again. I really like Causeway Bay, as the shopping is excellent, and there's a wide variety of restaurants. Moreover, the area remains very lively at night.

Accidently booked thru Expedia.. We were trying to find a new hotel after our first day at the L hotel... L, we found stood for lame.. b/c .. yeah, it was not a happenin' place.
Really close to the heart of Causeway Bay.. close to everything.. room was fabulous.. the staff was great! everyone was SUPER helpful, especially the concierge guys. Breakfast was okay, but why eat breakfast at the hotel when you can go out for dim sum. :)
Room was clean, LOVED the jumbo shower head... I liked how the room was apartment style, divided into four parts - kitchenette, bathroom, sitting area, and sleeping area.. the sleeping area and sitting area is divided with a glass partition/tv stand - very clever.. the tv can be watchd from both the sitting area and the bed b/c it sits on an internal swivel.. and can be easily turned around..
Other things: business center was very nice with free Internet access, printer, copy machine, scanner; the library had a nice sitting area that doubled as the breakfast area with a ton of books.. and there's also a grand piano.. very nice.
Hotel was great all around.

My partner and I stayed six nights in Lanson Place, and were most impressed by this boutique hotel.

We had a spacious L- shaped corner room on the 26th floor, with a well equiped kitchenette and 2 LCD TVs and DVD players, one each in the sitting area and the bedroom area. It had a good size fridge (not a mini bar type) which was handy for chilling drinks and the essential bottle of sauvignon blanc after a long day out in the heat - and I found two excellent wine shops (Watson's wine cellar and Berry brothers) across the road in the Lee Gardens arcade. Although traffic below was very busy all the time, our room was quiet at night.

Lanson Place reminded me of my favourite hotel in New York - the Affinia Dumont. What made this hotel special was the friendliness of the staff - the concierge and staff were always rushing to hold the door open, offer to get a taxi and to carry the bags etc. "Ah Lock" was particularly helpful during our stay.

The receptionists were lovely, efficient and eager to help, and everyone was smiling all the time - quite a contrast to my recent experience in some top European hotels when you feel that the staff are doing you a favour when they provide a service, or at home in Ireland when most hotels are staffed by Eastern Europeans who have little command of English!

A local cell phone was provided free of charge. It would ring simultaneously with the room phone - and saved me a small fortune on roaming fees.

The hotel was located in Causeway Bay - a busy shopping area but only a short ride on the MTR to the Central business district. It was fascinating being in a more local area - where shops stay open till late and there are restaurants to suit every taste and budget.

I noted comments on the size of the duvet in earlier reviews, and asked for an extra duvet and pillow upon check-in, which was brought within minutes by housekeeping - whose excellent service was also worth noting. Although here is no bath tub in the glass walled bathroom, the shower had a "rain" shower head with good water pressure.

The complimentary breakfast was better than many of the European style continental breakfast - with fresh fruits, yoghurts, warm pastries and decent coffee. An added bonus was the jazz pianist who played in the lounge in the evening - a lovely way to relax over a drink after dinner!

This hotel is a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World and, having stayed in others in this group and been impressed, we decided to try Lanson Place whilst in Hong Kong.

As others have said, it is not particularly easy to find. We took the Airport Express (purchasing Octopus cards at the airport) to Central and then a taxi to the hotel. I had taken with me a map of the city with the hotel marked but the driver still had to ring the hotel for further directions. But it wasn't a particular problem and we were soon there.

Our room was very comfortable apart from the duvet which seemed very small for the bed. I assume that the rooms are normally used for single occupancy by businessmen. When filling out my comment card at the end of our stay, I mentioned the duvet size and, by the time we had reached the airport in HK, I had had a reply from the manager saying they were addressing the problem and I could have asked for a larger duvet. If only I had known!

As others have stated, the bathroom is a glass walled enclosure in the centre of the room which is certainly unusual. However the room itself was very well equipped, including a kitchen area, and we had free wi-fi access at all times.

The breakfast was good at what it did - the pastries were crisp and warm and the coffee was good. There was enough to give one a reasonable start to the day.

There was a guest laundry (small charge) which was wonderful for us after our two week stay in China.

The situation of the hotel is good - a short walk to the MTR station and plenty of restaurants within easy reach. It is also very convenient for the shops and a short walk from the park. We enjoyed our stay there very much and would certainly stay there again if we return to HK.
