..finding a hotel


We tried to book a hotel in Hong Kong before leaving but, it did not happen. So, once arriving and carting way too much stuff : baby car seat, stroller, suitcases... we hailed a cab and asked to be taken to the hotel we wanted. The hotel was chosen due to its close proximity to a friend's house. Unfortunately, the taxi driver did not know where the hotel was and actually was furious that we had no address. This is one of the first times I have had a taxi driver mad at me......and as we wanted to get out of the cab as quick as possible we asked to be taken to the closest hotel. We were dropped at this hotel: http://www.asiatravel.com/hongkong/sohotel/index.html and it turned out to be quite nice. The room was small but very tasteful and the shower was great and it included breakfast!!! Luckily, the Sohotel was very pleasant and the angry driver directed us to a good place.
