Dim sum, skyscrapers and a ferry ride to Macau, all for less than a weekend in the Balearics.
Air China is running one of its lowest fares of the year from Barcelona to Hong Kong, one stop, from just €487 return. This isn't a city that usually shows up on the cheap flights radar, so it's worth grabbing while it's here.

💰 How Far Does Your Money Go?
Forget a caña and a menú del día. In Hong Kong, HK$54 (about €6.30) gets you a draught beer, and a full cha chaan teng meal, eggs, toast, noodles or rice, runs HK$40–80 (€4.70–9.30). Street food stalls in Temple Street serve curry fish balls and stinky tofu for HK$10–20 a portion. A cappuccino costs about €4.90, similar to Barcelona, but the food goes a lot further.
☀️ The Weather
September in Hong Kong is hot and humid, with highs around 31°C and lows near 26°C. It's still typhoon season, so expect the odd heavy shower, but plenty of sun in between and warm water for a swim in Sai Kung.
🏨 Where to Stay
From harbour-view towers to Victoria Peak hikes on your doorstep, Hong Kong has options for every budget.
Hopewell Hotel — 8.1/10 · From €75/night A 15-minute walk from Hong Kong Park, with a seasonal outdoor pool and gym. Solid base for first-timers.
Hotel ICON — 8.8/10 · From €165/night Harbour views in Tsim Sha Tsui East, with a rooftop heated pool. Designed by local architects, built for the skyline.
The Peninsula Hong Kong — 9.2/10 · From €480/night Open since 1928, right on Victoria Harbour. Old-world service for a proper splurge.
🎯 What to Do
From incense-filled temples to neon night markets, Hong Kong moves fast in every direction.
Sai Kung Country Park — Hike coastal trails and kayak turquoise water, minutes from the skyscrapers.
Wong Tai Sin Temple — Watch fortune-tellers and incense rituals in the middle of the city.
Temple Street Night Market — Dai pai dong stalls, street food and karaoke stands until late.
Star Ferry at sunset — Cross Victoria Harbour for under a euro, then catch Symphony of Lights at 8pm.
🗺️ Where to Go From Here
Hong Kong is also the easiest gateway into mainland China's Greater Bay Area.
Macau — A one-hour ferry away. Portuguese old town, casinos and the best egg tarts you'll ever eat.
Shenzhen — 14 minutes by high-speed rail from West Kowloon. Tech malls and shopping at a fraction of Hong Kong prices.
Guangzhou — About an hour by high-speed train. Cantonese food capital, with Yuexiu Park and Shamian Island worth a wander.
