The Pottinger is one of the most posh boutique options in Hong Kong. Interiors combine Old World charm with a contemporary finish for a look that's soft and sharp at the same time. However, it may be the hotel's location and dining scene that appeal most to travelers. The property sits amid all of Central's retail, dining, and nightlife buzz, a block from the escalators. In fact, the hotel's own restaurants include two-Michelin-starred Ta Vie as well as a popular Italian spot. You won't find a spa, pool, or fitness center here, though the 68 rooms and suites are bright and attractive, with extras like Nespresso machines and marble bathrooms. It's a great upscale pick, though you'll get more space for your money at Sheung Wan's The Jervois instead.

Located in a quiet residential setting directly on the sea, this upscale hotel offers stunning views in most areas. All 325 guest rooms and suites gaze upon the ocean or mountains from large windows, as do showers in Ocean Front Rooms. Decor is modern, but a tad generic, and in-room amenities include 40-inch flat-screen TVs and mini-fridges. Spacious suites feature separate living areas, and kitchenettes. Popular with locals, the hotel provides everything required for a staycation: an outdoor pool, a spa and fitness center, and a restaurant and sports bar. Children's activities and shuttle service to nearby Disneyland are also available for a fee. The hotel is far from central Hong Kong, but convenient to the airport or Disneyland. The nearby Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel is also popular with families, but rates are significantly higher.

Hidden inside an apartment building above restaurants and retail shops, the eight-room InnSight is a budget property occupying a great location in Tsim Sha Tsui. Inside, the hostel is cramped, though cozy, with a common room that pulls triple duty as a guest kitchenette, TV lounge, and reception desk. Rooms are lovingly decorated with individually painted wall art and private bathrooms, though some can be quite small. There's no restaurant or bar on-site, nor is breakfast included. Budget travelers might want to consider the nearby Hop Inn as well, a comparable property that also offers private rooms at affordable rates.

Hotel Pennington by Rhombus is a 79-room boutique-style property located in the bustling shopping and business center of the Causeway Bay district. This largely business-oriented hotel features impressive in-room tech as well as chic interior design. Beyond the restaurant and outdoor terrace, however, there's little else in the way of facilities so while there's plenty to recommend, those after a pool can pay a little more for the nearby Regal Hongkong Hotel, which has one on-site.

This 245-room Courtyard by Marriott has all the basics of an upscale business chain hotel -- a modern fitness center; a breakfast, lunch, and dinner spot; a well-equipped business center, and free Wi-Fi -- but it's a good pick for tourists, as well. Rooms, though somewhat small (typical of Hong Kong), offer great amenities, including mini-fridges, signature bedding, flat-screen TVs, and marble bathrooms with sleek rainfall showerheads. The highlight, however, is the great harbor and city views from most rooms and the gym. While location is not central, the hotel does offer free shuttle service to Central, Admiralty, and the Macau Ferry Terminal. Plus, it’s across the bridge from Tsim Sha Tsui, and cabs are easy to find. Travelers who'd rather be a stone's throw from Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (and are willing to pay higher rates) could look into the Renaissance Hong Kong Harbour View Hotel.

The upscale Conrad Hong Kong is housed in a gorgeous skyscraper in Central, taking up the upper-level floors of a large, high-end shopping center. Shops, restaurants, and public transportation can be found right below the hotel, and there are also plenty of amenities within the hotel itself, including four restaurants, two bars, a rooftop pool, and a well-equipped, 24-hour fitness center. But there's no spa, unlike at the slightly more upscale Peninsula. Luxurious rooms are outfitted in gold tones and have large windows -- many of which open up to gorgeous views -- flat-screen TVs, and large marble bathrooms with separate showers and tubs. It's popular among business travelers because of the location, but those who prefer to stay in Tsim Sha Tsui should compare prices with the Peninsula and the Langham across the water.

The 46-room Hotel LBP is a modern, upper-middle-range hotel in Sheung Wan. Contemporary and sleek from the polished lobby to the sunny fitness center, this property offers nice extras such as a comfy lounge with free coffee, tea, and refreshments. The hotel offers a free breakfast including cooked items and there's a small restaurant and bar on-site. Rooms are modern and minimal with a cool color palette, electric kettles, and striking skyscraper views; contemporary bathrooms have rain showerheads, but some rooms are a touch small and have a limited number of electric outlets. Those who don't mind staying further from the main attractions should compare rates with Ovolo West Kowloon - 256 Tung Chau Street, an upscale hotel with a free breakfast and a generous happy hour.

The Upper House is one of the most buzzed about luxury hotels in Hong Kong. This design-forward property has an exclusive perch with excellent city and harbor views, plus striking interiors and an impeccable contemporary art collection. The 117 rooms are some of the most spacious in town, with soothing minimalist decor plus free Maxi Bars and posh spa bathrooms (many with amazing views). Cafe Gray Deluxe and Bar holds sought-after tables overlooking the city skyline, while additions like free yoga and a complete gym all make this a true urban oasis. We especially love The Library, which holds exclusive gatherings and talks during events like Art Basel. The cutting-edge design is stunning, though travelers preferring something more classic might opt for the Mandarin-Oriental, Hong Kong instead.

The 99 Bonham All Suite Hotel is a truly upscale experience in Sheung Wan, one of Hong Kong's coolest neighborhoods. It's best for independent travelers, though there's more here than meets the eye. Like sister hotel The Jervois, the views can be astounding -- particularly on higher floors. The fresh decor and extras like Frette linens, Nespresso machines, and windowside work or dining space all add to the hotel's chic vibe -- and that cuts across all 84 suites (and 30 floors into the air). However, common amenities are few, limited to a laundry room and simple fitness center. While the 99 Bonham is hard to top for the money, if you want something a little cheaper, check out the nearby Hotel LBP. However, you'll get way less style and space.

True urban resorts are rare in Hong Kong, making the Kerry Hotel an impressive exception in a city flush with luxury hotels. From its setting right on Victoria Harbour to the lively restaurants and the beautiful contemporary interiors, the hotel is an excellent pick. The 546 rooms are massive, and all come with city or harbor views, plus free minibars on arrival, marble bathrooms, and Bluetooth sound systems. Luxe features include a harborside pool and pretty spa that are great for unwinding after hectic city days, while the Dockyard and Red Sugar both come to life with happy hour revelers every night. The setting near Whampoa MTR station is a bit removed, though, so if you'd prefer a luxury option closer to Central, check rates at The Upper House instead.
