As Judith and I were saying early -January is a depressing month! I have just dug all the bookings I made for April and put them together in a file so I don't lose them all! Now I'm beginning to look forward to it! We are going to Hong Kong for 3 nights ( Metropark Hotel), Saigon for 4 nights( Renaissance Riverside) and Bangkok ( Landmark ) for 4 nights. I have been to Hong Kong once before but if anyone has stayed at the Metropark I would love to hear about it. Also any restaurant recs.
Never been to Saigon- some of you have already helped with ideas but I am always open to more! Anybody got any restaurants they liked? I like to try the local dishes where ever I go.
Have been to the Landmark before - fantastic hotel. When we fly into BKK it should be the new airport so it will be interesting to see what its like and how quickly we can get into the city( mind you "quickly" is not a word often used for the roads in Bangkok is it!!)
I want to check out HK Disney, maybe a side trip into China, see the view from Victoria Peak (last time was so foggy) and go on the new skytrain to Lantau island (which will be completed later this year) plus much more.
Sorry can't help out with the hotel as I stayed at Standford Hillview last time.
We've got a house in Bkk about 10 mins drive north of the new airport. From the airport, it's a 20 minute drive along a ten lane expressway into the city centre. But no rail link for another couple of years, one is planned though.
the view from Victoria Peak is breathtaking!

I suppose that doesn't surprise me! I thought the new airport was scheduled to open March?
