HK Side Options
Check out post 5 of THIS LINK and my points on "geography". Staying in a hotel so close to the action has advantages and disadvantages.
Assuming you ultimately decide you do want to stay near the action, consider the following:
Charterhouse Hotel is located in the bottom RH corner of the image below, 3.5 star, reasonable, close enough to be convenient but far enough away to discourage the WG from trying to leave early and head back to Lockhart Rd.
South Pacific Hotel is located near the Happy Valley race track. Just off the map below but a short walk past the Charterhouse. Again 3.5 star, nothing flash but for sure OK.
The Wharney is right on Lockhart, rooms are small and you are literally next door to Escape. I think 3.5 star.
Century Novotel is also on Lockhart. A little nicer than the Wharney, around 3.5 - 4 star.
Renaissance Harbour View is located right next to the Convention Centre, beautiful hotel with nice lounge bar with great views. 5 Star.
The Grand Hyatt is also located next to the Convention Centre. 5 Star Quality + 5 Star price!
All these hotels are 100% Girl Friendly. Night staff couldn't care less what you are doing or who you are bring back to your room. Absolutely NO PROBLEM bringing WGs back and no problem having them stay the night.
Personally I prefer to stay in TST even when I am punting in Wan Chai. Late night / early morning cab from WC back to TST costs peanuts... < HK$70 inc toll. You can grope in the cab on the way to your hotel. Cab drivers are usually happy to go cross harbour that time of night because little traffic. Taken away from Wan Chai, your WG is far more likely to abandon any idea of leaving early to find another punter... staying overnight with you is much more appealing even for no extra money.

Keep in mind, "most" of the Wan Chai Bar action takes place on or "near" Lockhart & Jaffe between Fenwick & Flemming Rds.
