I'm a Platinum Priority Club member and it's my second time staying at the hotel. I booked the cheapest room on an Advanced Purchase rate, and was upgraded to the Executive Suite with full benefits
The regular rooms are pretty spacious for Hong Kong and the executive suite was also pretty big considering they only charge between HK$4-6k for them. There is a 1/2 bathroom in the living room. The highlight is the full length windows in the bedroom overlooking the race course and the bath with the view over the racecourse. The master bathroom was extremely spacious.
Good:
- Excellent upgrade and check-in granted at 10am.
- Location.
- Full club lounge benefits. (I only took in breakfasts as was out most of the day). The usual for Plats is Free Breakfast and Internet.
- Fantastic Bulgari White Tea amenities. (These are my favorite, much better than the Green Tea or L'Occtaine that you sometimes find at IC's) - Was very surprised as the last time i had White Tea amenities it was at a Four Seasons.
- They now have a Priority Club Desk to the right of the lobby (didn't have that on my last stay) with pre-prepared registration forms and very attentive staff.
Bad:
- This is just personal preference, but the mattress was just too soft for me and would have appreciated a choice of pillows available.
- Rude guests from North of the Border...I'm a Platinum Priority Club member and it's my second time staying at the hotel. I booked the cheapest room on an Advanced Purchase rate, and was upgraded to the Executive Suite with full benefits

- Rude guests from North of the Border - One of the guys walked into the lift smoking a lit cigarette. Hell no, with my 2 kids in the lift. Told him to get out, so he put the cigarette out on the floor of the lift!
- Would appreciate a laundry benefit for Club guests - similar to what they offer at the Holiday Inn Orchard in Singapore.
- Repetitive breakfasts - the buffet hasn't changed at all (With the exception of adding a cheese station) since my last stay here 8 months ago. Exact same dishes on the buffet. A good spread, but some variety would be appreciated.
The hotel represents excellent value for money. It's usually more expensive than the Grand Stanford Intercon, but still represents good value. Rooms are new(ish) and spacious, service is good. I would choose the CP over both the IC's in HK.More
