KEE@FSEMAG.COM
I GO TO HONG KONG TO SHOPM, SIGHTSEE AND SLURP ALL THE GOOD FOOD BUT I HAVE NO INTENTION OF FLYING 3.5 HOURS AND PAYING FOR A HOTEL ROOM JUST TO WATCH MOVIES.

Still, a friend insists on watching movies at shopping malls whenever he travels and for people like him, the best way (and free sumore) is to watch the film in the comfort of your hotel room.

Introducing J Plus Boutique Hotel...

At only RM 722 a night, it certainly is one of the best deals to rest your weary head each night in comfort and safety.

J Plus Boutique Hotel Celebrates Film Festival & Award Season with Private Cinema Experience

Oscars, BAFTA Film Awards, Critic’s Choice Awards, Golden Globes, the film industry’s biggest nights are upon us. In the spirit of film celebrations at the hub of Asian film industry, J Plus Boutique Hotel Hong Kong is enhancing their DVD collection by adding a wide selection of award-winning DVDs and short films for film-loving guests to fully immerse themselves in the movie season in March.

The fresh collection, including top award-winning movies - The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Artist, The Fighter and Black Swan to name a few - is set to heighten the boutique hotel’s ‘private cinemas’ experience found in the guest rooms, suites and trendy penthouse space. Equipped with state-of-the-art high-tech home theatres and surround sound systems, guests are provided with the best facilities to embrace the movie award season in style.

With the Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF) and Asian Film Awards (AFA) rapidly approaching (March 17-April 2), J Plus honours Hong Kong’s illustrious cinematic achievements and supports the city’s budding filmmakers and film professionals by showcasing an array of Asian films, award-winning IFVA short films and animations highlighting Asian and Hong Kong movie culture, as well as the fast-growing trend in short movies.

A film buff herself, J Plus Boutique Hotel’s General Manager, Vivian Chau believes the newly added DVD collections will make a perfect and relaxing stay and movie night experience for either couples, friends or family. Vivian says “one of my favorite local directors is Fruit Chan. He is a unique independent Hong Kong director best known for his film “Made in Hong Kong”. Another director I particularly admire is Ann Hui, who recently won best director in various Film Awards last year for her latest film “A Simple Life”. I think films created by both directors offer great insight on the diverse social aspects and are suitable for our guests who are interested in Hong Kong culture” and is at hand to recommend her own personal list of must-see films to guests by offering a special GM’s choice collection.

Aficionados can settle down, cozy up on the couch and make the most of the extensive themed movie collections with finishing touches such as popcorn and light refreshments served upon request. The selection of films were obtained by J Plus picking crowd-pleasing films from categories such as cult classics, famous directors and famous actors as well as movies relevant to the current film awards. Paying special tribute to director Ang Lee with his most recent success of Life of Pi, J Plus will also be showing a variety of his masterpieces throughout the years staring with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and many more.

Guests can now stay at the homey studio room and enjoy the movie collections in the ‘private cinema’ starting at HK$1,795* (RM 722) per night.
