Christmas is around the corner and we couldn’t be more excited. While we may not be jetting off to the crystal-clear waters of Maldives or cosying up at a fire in a lodge somewhere far this year, Hong Kong presents an abundance of alternatives from outdoor getaways to five-star pampering spacations. If you’re staying in the city this Christmas, here are some of the most festive staycations to book—and book them quick, as we expect they’ll sell out fast.
