I stayed for 6 nights this November. I had a room on the 15th floor with a partial view of the Harbour and my rate was a “business package” that included the business lounge where you are served free soft drinks and cocktails and hors d’oeuvres at various times of the day. Also included were buffet breakfast in the 1st floor dining room (or a much lighter continental breakfast in the afore mentioned lounge), free wireless internet access in both the room and lounge, free access to the health club and to the pool on the roof (which is spectacular) and discounts on laundry, room service and purchases within the hotel. At $HK1550 a night, this package was a great deal and worth every penny. The service was without fault very efficient and instant and the quality of the food at breakfast superior and quite varied. I in fact tried several of the other restaurants within the hotel and all were outstanding (especially Toh Lee for Cantonese cuisine). The room and bathroom amenities were excellent with bathrobes and slippers, a plasma TV screen, cable TV with many channels, a mini bar fridge that could accommodate extra stuff if you wanted, complimentary water, tea and coffee ingredients, an electric kettle, a safe, electronic window drapes, a large bathroom with separate shower stall and bathtub. There wasn’t anything that I could thinks of that I missed. Room service was excellent and very quick.
The only minor criticism I have would be that the concierge service was not reliable. I asked for a good restaurant and was told to go to the Jumbo Restaurant off the shore in Aberdeen. The place is inexplicably a tourist must-see where one pays thrice the money for a meal of comparable quality anywhere else. On another occasion I asked how much approximately a taxi would cost to a certain place and was completely misinformed. Other than that, I would not hesitate to recommend the Nikko, provided you go on the all-inclusive package. Believe me, it saves you a lot of money if you use it well. The Nikko is within walking distance of the Ferry Terminal and of great shopping on Nathan Road, The Jade and Night Markets. Restaurants abound in the area and if one wishes excellent non-asian cuisine, go to the Knutsford Terrace off Nathan Road. The Island Seafood House is out of this world as is the Italian restaurant there.

  • Liked — The enormously varied breakfast buffet and the premium drinks and hors d'oeuvres in the business lounge
  • Disliked — The unreliable concierge information
  • Tips/Secrets: — Get a package that includes breakfast at least and the lounge if possible too

Have stayed at this hotel before and as previously ,it didn't disappoint, rooms are clean, bathrooms good and contrary to a previous review it is in a good location, being just a few minutes walk to the Star Ferry and MTR. Fitness facilities are fine and I have always found the staff here to be particularly helpful.
Worth getting the upgrade to the business rooms if you are on holiday and want a few free refreshments/snacks.
All in all, it offers good value especially as Hong Kong hotels seem to be getting increasingly expensive.

It just occur to me that I should share my experience with fellow online hotel shoppers even though my experience with this hotel was almost a year ago.

Booked a room at Nikko Hotel in Hong Kong in Dec 2005 through Orbitz at a fantastic rate. Confirmed twice with Orbitz the reservation was firm before I left US. Upon arrival on the 23rd of Dec., Nikko Hotel claimed no such reservation was on file and flatly denied us a room even after I showed my paper confirmation. The manager there Mr. Park curtly said "We can't be responsible for online reservations made on other websites and what's more I have never heard of Orbitz". Given it was Christmas time, I thought he was very unsympathetic because he made no accommodation to the stressful situation. The desk receptionist confirmed there were rooms available but the manager would only let us have the room for about twice the price that we paid for at Orbitz. After 45-minutes with him, we gave up. He treated us as if we were trying to 'cheat' the hotel and we felt hurt.

I would imagine a five-star Japanese hotel would be more understanding and willing to make adjustment and work with 'stranded' customers. Later I wrote to the hotel headquarters in Tokyo providing the details. The customer service department clearly did not read the letter; they provided a generic apology for the inconvenience and claimed the hotel was full at that time and there wasn't much that could be done.

I would not recommend this hotel at all because of the attitude displayed by the manager. If this were a 1 or 2 star-small hotel, I can understand. But for a well known hotel that claims excellence for their service on their website, this was a complete let down. Incidentally, the location of this hotel isn't that great either as we found out.

  • Disliked — Make a greater and sincere effort to accommodate real customers caught in online reservation problems
  • Tips/Secrets: — make sure you check you have a firm reservation from this hotel before you make your overseas trip

3/3 found this review helpful

For the price of this hotel and the prime location, it is incredibly good value. My fiance and I got the Harbour view room and it was incredible. It had all the mod cons in it.. electric curtain rail!!! Decorated in a beautiful modern oriental style and incredibly spacious unlike a lot of hotels in Hong Kong.

Bathroom was simply beautiful, had a walk in shower which was large and a bath. Little things like the toilettries they gave were brill too!

Service was brilliant and the general feel of the hotel was relaxed which is what you need on holiday.

  • Liked — Location and the beautiful harbour view. Decor was lovely too!
  • Disliked — n/a!!!
  • Tips/Secrets: — If you're planning to propose to someone in private, make sure it is at night with the lights out in the Harbour view room looking out to Victoria Harbour, this is what my fiance did.. very romantic!

Unlike Intercontinental Hong Kong or Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong, this is not a five-star hotel. However, we love this hotel because of its reasonable room rate. You can find 1000HKD (roughly 120USD) standard room throughout the year.
The hotel is old, but renovation has been finished. The room is clean.
Many restaurants serving Chinese, Italian or Japanese, are located in walking distance.
Good hotel.
