Not a lot happens on Sundays. We tend to stay in with a bagel and the paper, maybe or maybe not nursing a hangover. Except this Sunday, had we the means, we'd be jetting off to Hong Kong for the W Hotel opening there.

We're excited about this hotel, because--well, simply put, it looks really cool. All 393 rooms have skyline views and come with iPod docking stations, LCD TVs in the bedroom and the bathroom and a minibar with free water. As we noted earlier, the location rocks, too: right in the West Kowloon district, a Mecca of commercial, entertainment and cultural options.

Though come to think of it, we'd wait a month before heading out there, as the hotel's Bliss spa and Wet rooftop pool aren't expected to open until September 1.

Regardless, whether it's this Sunday or a Sunday a month from now, we still won't have the means to afford a plane ticket to China, so if you happen to stop by the place in the coming weeks, let us know.
