Our stay at Matilda Hospital in HK has been quite the experience. The medical staff has been great, but the true charm is the hospital itself. The main building is over 100 years old and was built by a British transplant at the turn of (last) century and named in memorial to his wife Matilda. It retains an architectural look and feel of a bygone era, more like bye bye gone gone in HK. It is now the spot where many/most expats on HK Island choose to have their babies. Best of all it is perched atop Victoria Peak and set amongst the megamillion dollar homes of HK's rich and famous. Is that Jackie Chan scaling our balcony? Anyway, you pay a price but we have our own private room complete with hardwood floors, crown moulding and a beautiful balcony with commanding views of the city and South China Sea beyond. From my typical guy point of view where I've not gone through intense labor and am not bed ridden, this place feels like a luxury resort!!
