After walking 20,000 steps in Hong Kong's Citywalk, I'm grateful for the Royal Plaza Hotel as a place to rest

Hong Kong is truly a city well-suited for Citywalk, with so many beautiful sights and delicious foods to document. Every visit to Hong Kong involves walking tens of thousands of steps, so finding a hotel that is conveniently located, quiet, and comfortable is very important. The first recommended check-in spot is the West Kowloon Cultural District, where the Hong Kong Palace Museum and M+ Museum are located. If you're short on time, you can opt for the Xiqu Centre; the rooftop of its atrium is simply perfect for photography! There's also a corner leading to the seaside where you can witness the sunset over Victoria Harbour. Taking photos at the Peak is also stunning, offering a bird's-eye view of Victoria Harbour. For accommodation, I recommend the Royal Plaza Hotel, which is convenient to get to anywhere. Right below is a shopping mall and the Mong Kok East MTR station. Coming out of the mall, there's a bus terminal where you can capture the beautiful red double-decker buses. In the pricey real estate market of Hong Kong, this hotel's room size is relatively large, with standard rooms featuring two 1.5-meter beds and a bathroom with a bathtub. It's said that often four friends will share a room, splitting the cost, making it cheaper than a budget hotel. The hotel also has a temperature-controlled swimming pool and a gym with a full range of equipment, and you can even borrow workout clothes and shoes. The hotel's restaurant is also impressive. For the third time, Chef Jiang Zhaoqi leads the Chinese culinary team with his unique skills to interpret his understanding of Eileen Chang's 'private' thoughts in the Lion Room cuisine, launching the new 'Eileen Feast.' Themed around the legendary literary figure Eileen Chang, the menu is inspired by her life and works, creating many stunning dishes. 'The Award-Winning Signature. Star-Level Banquet' is also worth trying, with dishes like Crispy Eel and Fresh Mushroom, Coconut Flavored Huai Shan Glutinous Rice Dumplings, and 'Typhoon Shelter' Style Urine Shrimp Har Gow winning the Gold Award at the 2023 Hong Kong International Culinary Classic.
