It’s been a few months since the last piece of our staycation series ! But we are back at it and today we are exploring a neighborhood we never staid at before: Tsim Sha Tsui/Jordan.
When it comes to exploring Hong Kong, accommodations options are not lacking! We have been staying at a few of the many luxurious hotels in town already, those are easy to find. But we couldn’t help but noticing Hong Kong is kind of lacking design boutique hotels: places with sleek design offering a more laid-back experience than the five-stars property and delivering a more authentic experience of the city. Seems like Butterfly Hospitality Group heard the demand for such accommodation since they recently opened Page148, a lifestyle-focused haven for urban explorers.
Highlights of the hotel includes:
Sleek and Instagram-worthy design

Sleek and Instagram-worthy design
No matter which kind of room you decide to go for, among the 6 types available,you’ll be treated to simple and comfortable design, custom crafted furniture and load of natural light.
I loved how simple yet sleek and very contemporary my Signature Greenery room was. No complicated technology, no frills, just few necessary modern amenities to make my stay comfortable. Oh, and the view of the neighboring greenery and skyscrapers …
An authentic experience brought to you by some of the city’s most innovative and up-and-coming photographers, baristas, urban sketchers …
The hotel is curating a list of local insiders in order to deliver an authentic local experience to its guests.
Whether you are living in Hong Kong or only visiting for a few days, their Urban Explorers Series will have you wander the city like a true local! I’ve been living in Hong Kong for 4 years now and was surprised to see how many new addresses and places I could still discover through this series. Can’t wait for them to introduce more travel around town itineraries!
Page Common, a lobby/coffee-shop aiming at inspiring people
The hotel lobby isn’t just any lobby. It has been thought of as a coffee house which design aims to encourage people engagement: from sharing coffee with the neighborhood inhabitants to participating to a coffee tasting with the baristas, borrowing a book to learn more about the surroundings or sharing travel stories. Loving it that they are using the growing coffee culture to create a space for the lifestyle community.
A perfect place where to enjoy your breakfast (included with the hotel stay), have a break or even work from.
In a nutshell, Page148 is a haven of peace, design and lifestyle inspiration in the heart of busy Tsim Sha Tsui.
