- If you haven’t organised anything for Mother’s Day, or can’t get the reservation you want, here are some ideas to treat your mother
- Hong Kong hotels are offering a variety of packages, including special meals, children’s activities, family workshops and pampering activities
It’s just a few days until Mother’s Day and if you haven’t been able to secure a booking for the family at your mum’s favourite restaurant, it might be causing stress and anxiety. No need to panic, we’ve got you covered.
Remove mum from her household duties on a staycation, where meals are taken care of, activities for the little ones are organised, and she can take a breather or make some special memories with her tots.

These Mother’s Day virtual workshops include origami heart making, a scavenger hunt, or learning to say “Mama I love you” in different languages. Tea for two is also available for in-room dining as well as a complimentary Guerlain’s orchidée impériale beauty gift and hand massage service. Much better than a boring old brunch.
