2) Tuve


Renowned for its pioneering simplicity, the Tuve boutique is the ultimate epitome of minimalism. A little over HK$2,000 a night buys your way to a cloud-like king-sized bed and a spacious walk-in shower as the main stars of the show for the Black Premier room which, intentionally, features little else in terms of furnishing. Fused with industrial concrete and organic wooden statements, Tuve boutique redefines hotel relaxation through its decluttered spaces and silent haven-like escapism.
