S$26 per night for a 5-Star Hotel Deal in Hong Kong?

Recently I went for a shopping vacation to Hong Kong for its Summer Sales. Gosh, could not remember when was my last crazy shopping deal prior to this trip. Anyway, that's not the point. The point is, I managed to get an unbelievable deal for this trip... Till now, I still could not believe it is true or are they stupid to offer this price at a BIG loss?


I was reading a travel forum somewhere and trying to find a good travel deal to Hong Kong as well as getting to know the latest IN thing there. Then there was this lady wrote that she found a website that costs her only a fraction of 50 pounds for a 5-star hotel in Causeway Bay. So I follow through and went to that travel website that allows you to book hotel room at selected cities. I anyhow keyed in a date that i prefer to and it went on searching for the price. Then, my eyes wide opened when the price appeared. S$26 per night for a Hotel in Causeway Bay??!?!?!


Rubbing my eyes, I went through step by step and checked if I have keyed in mistakenly somewhere or the website creates an error page. Oh my, it is indeed a 5-star hotel and better still, it is a Club Floor Room!! Are they crazy?? With free breakfast, evening cocktail, free shuttle bus to and fro airport and seaview... only S$26?? I tried 2nd time, 3rd time, 4th time again and even on other selected dates, it was indeed S$26! Without hesitation, I booked immediatelyfor 5 nights to secure the room! I only pay for $130 for 5 luxury nights stay! Who would want to miss this super great deal? At most, I only lost $130 opportunity cost even it is a fraud, and moreover the website is a reliable airline website. How could it be fake?


Continue from there, I proceed to book SAFRA discounted airfares at 50% off for that promotional month and the airfare only cost me $345 per person including tax! So in total, I only pay $345+$130=$475 for a 6D5N Hong Kong trip with airfares and hotel! That's my 1st luck and needless to say, the hotel is damn good and luxury. I even extended this deal to my parents with 1 week stay after I returned home. Anyway, the offer price went up as per normal from October onwards, but who knows the next offer will be soon?

See yourself with the pictures here! U will envy me.... :)
