comp airport transfer | Peninsula Hong Kong



The Peninsula Hong Kong is one of the iconic hotels of the world. Located on the Kowloon side of Victoria Harbour, the hotel offers a commanding view of the Hong Kong skyline from its Grand Deluxe Harbour View rooms.

The hotel has been through a thorough renovation, and we stayed in a Courtyard view room during our last stay. The room was extremely comfortable, with an easy-to-use electronic control panel that I could operate without having to put on my reading glasses! We would stay at the Peninsula again in heartbeat.

And to make something so great even better, Virtuoso guests can include a one-way airport transfer with a minimum two-night booking in a Deluxe, Courtyard, or Grand Deluxe room. And this isn't just any transfer. We enjoyed our transfer in one of the hotel's fleet of Rolls-Royce Phantoms.

This promotion is valid for stays through August 31, 2016. Our clients receive both the Virtuoso amenities (daily buffet breakfast for two and $100 F&B or Spa credit) as well as PEN Time — flexible check-in and check-out times. So if you arrive very early or leave very late, you've got a place to call home whilst in Hong Kong.

Bhutan | Amankora journey



This is the national emblem of Bhutan - the destination of my next trip. Be watching here over the next few weeks to read about and see some of the scenery and culture of Bhutan.

After three days in Bangkok, we fly to Paro to begin our nine-day Amankora Journey.
   

The map above shows the locations of the five lodges in Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, Gangtey, and Bumthang (from west to east). We will be spending one night in Thimphu and two each in the other lodges.

Be watching for much more news from our trip. We will spend our first three nights at the FS Bangkok (with site inspections of the St. Regis and The Siam) before flying to Paro. On our return to Bangkok, we will spend one night at Four Seasons Tented Camp (I'm especially looking forward to reporting back about this fabled resort). One final night at the newly renovated Peninsula Hong Kong (and sampling their Rolls Royce transfers) before heading back to San Francisco.

Lots of photos and site inspections to follow… keep watching this blog!
