My wife and I stayed at the Crowne Plaza between the 5th and 11th of November. We were celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary and received a complimentary bottle of champagne on arrival. Our room was also upgraded to a Deluxe. The rooms are large and very clean. The bed is very comfortable and a good nights sleep was had each night. We swam in the pool every day and on a number of occasions had a drink by the pool. We had breakfast at the hotel once and this was delicious.
Times Square is close by and has excellent shopping and restaurants (try the Modern Chinese on 10/F). There is in fact quite a number of good restaurants and bars close by to the hotel. Trams run along the front of the hotel, the MTR is a 5 minute walk and taxis are readily available.
I travel quite a bit through Australia and Asia and this hotel is one the best I have stayed in. Will definitely be staying again the next time I am in HK.

Make sure you get view of racecourse. If poss go to races - well worth doing! Restaurant good - had French promotion while we were there - food superb and 20% discount for hotel guests (inc wine!!). Good central location close to trams, buses and trains. Dont miss happy hour with free drinks for privilege members. Highly recommended.

The hotel is well situated for the business and pleasure traveler with well insulated rooms from the bustling noise of HK. My colleague and I arrived at the hotel at 6:15am from 5:00am arrival from the states. The front desk was happy to greet us and said our rooms were not yet ready, but after breakfast, the bell man greeted us at the hotel restaurant and handed our room keys. Large rooms with big showers, along with cordial service are big pluses. I would return again for my next visit as well as my colleague. Thumbs up!

Stayed for 2 nights in October 2012. Check in was friendly and efficient. Rooms were very well equipped with outlet adaptors/convertors, hair dryer, lots of toiletries, blow dryer and mini bar with snacks. Bed was very comforatable with lots of pillow. Wi-fi worked well. The bathroom walls were glass so no privacy from bedroom which is fine if travelling with spouse or partner but not so much if travelling with friends, co-workers or kids. See pic.

Ate at the buffet restaurant for dinner which was fine and had drinks at the top floor lounge which was crowded with well dressed, young, locals and had live music. In order to acess the pool you'll need to walk through the coctail lounge which was odd.

I would stay here again if travelling solo or with spouse. Area is good for shopping and very safe.
