3.0 out of 5 stars
Lots of info, compact, snotty,
This review is from: LUXE City Guides: Hong Kong (Paperback)
It's refreshing to read a very concise, opinionated survey of Hong Kong, but the guide's tone sometimes veers into off-putting cruelty and mistakes snobbery for edginess. Hence the repeated derogatory comments about people in Dacron (does paying $400 for a pair of Prada pants really make one superior, or just stupid?) and some obvious comments that are meant to be outre but aren't--would anyone disagree that HK's skyline is far more impressive than NYC's? Some of the "insider" travel tips (ie, having concierge make reservations at the China Club) are stuff that you could read in popular, non-luxe Web sites.
Overall, though, not a bad resource. |
