Best family hotels in Hong Kong

With its work-hard play-hard reputation, Hong Kong might not immediately spring to mind as the place for a getaway with children or teens, but there are plenty of family-friendly hotels to choose from. In fact, this sub-tropical territory is home to walkable islands and mountainous country parks where hundreds of miles of trails lead to secret waterfalls, cooling rock pools, barbecue pits and golden beaches where you can swim, SUP, kayak and even snorkel. Our action-packed theme parks – Disneyland and Ocean Park – draw in families from across Asia, while the Peak Tram puts the ‘fun’ into funicular, with a 25.7-degree tilt creating the optical illusion that Hong Kong’s skyscrapers are about to topple over. Curious young minds can visit brilliant museums such as M+ and the Hong Kong Palace Museum. Shoppers can scour street markets for cut-price clothes and accessories or head to Pop Mart for the latest creepy-sweet Labubu dolls (created by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung).

Whether you’re here on a stopover or tempted to stay longer, there are plenty of memorable places for families to stay, from coastal retreats to harbour view skyscrapers, to historic properties and theme park resorts. Here’s our pick of the best family-friendly hotels in Hong Kong.
