Most of the places to drink afternoon tea are concentrated in Central, Sheung Wan or Tsim Sha Tsui, for a view of the sea or a taste of history. However, the Royal Plaza Hotel in Mong Kok can also stand out among many afternoon tea spots and become one of the places where Hong Kong people love high tea. Since the refurbishment of the Royal Plaza Hotel, its restaurant and bar, Lion Rock, has been a hot spot for tea in the city.
Lion Rock at Royal Plaza Hotel is located on the third floor of the hotel, with a spacious lobby and floor-to-ceiling glass windows that make the interior appear open during the day, plus a view of the Lion Rock, if not comparable to the sea view of Victoria Harbour, it can stand out in the Mong Kok area.
Like many five-star hotels, Royal Plaza Hotel is also good at co-launching afternoon tea collaborations with various brands, so that customers can not only enjoy afternoon tea time, but also get some souvenirs from the brands. Previously, Lion Rock and Japanese skincare brand HABA jointly created a Japanese-themed afternoon tea, which integrates sushi and tempura, which are common in Japanese cuisine into desserts, and the taste is not as sweet as traditional desserts, and the taste is also unique. And customers who dine can also get a brand set with a certain value. Royal Plaza Hotel also has its own cake shop, located on the first floor of the hotel, if you think the dessert tastes good, you can also go directly to the cake shop to take away.
The price of the Kamikyo Hotel is not expensive, 270 Hong Kong dollars for one person, 508 Hong Kong dollars for two people. However, with the change of the theme afternoon tea, the price of afternoon tea will also fluctuate. If you happen to be in the Mong Kok area, and Royal Plaza Hotel happens to be nearby, then it is appropriate to go here for a rest and a cup of tea and chat.
