Jia Hong Kong
Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR China
Style Sleek boutique, Starck-style
Setting Hong Kong shopping hub
‘Jia’ means ‘home’ in Mandarin and it’s the ideal moniker for this Hong Kong boutique hotel in Causeway Bay, given its single-minded adherence to the concept of homeliness. Less a hotel, more a stylish selection of smart serviced apartments, Jia Hong Kong is Philippe Starck’s first foray into Asia; an achingly cool urban retreat where the food is as exquisitely designed as the furnishings.

All rooms are similarly styled and Starck-ed – light and airy, with the designer’s trademark white furnishings and a play of pastels on the fixtures and fittings. Space-wise, the luxurious suites have more to offer, but the rectangular Studio Twos feel surprisingly roomy.
Packing tips
Sturdy shoes for traipsing around vibrant Causeway Bay by day. Leave suitcase space for your night-time finery too – the HK crowd likes to dress up by night.
