Last time I visited Hong Kong I was staying at the Intercontinental Grand Stanford. Intercontinental also has another hotel there which is their Hong Kong flagship property. It’s more expensive than the Grand Stanford but it is known for its rooms with stunning views on the Hong Kong skyline. I decided to check it out this time.

Our flight to Beijing was delayed by one hour but the additional waiting time when you are in the Lufthansa First Class Terminal in Frankfurt couldn’t be spent more conveniently. I decided to do a whiskey tasting and soon our personal assistant informed us that the limousine that’ll bring us to the plane was ready. […]
