The family visited Hong Konf for the period 2-8 Sept and stayed at the The Kowloon Hotel. The hotel was great, we had rooms on the 15th floor and they were very quiet and made up each day. A lot of people had commented on the small size of the rooms but we did not find this a problem as we were only ever in the rooms to sleep. We had a buffet breakfast each morning which set us up for the rest of the day.

Twice we had the Supper Buffett at the hotel and this was great too. The staff were always friendly and the hotel is very centrally located for everything.

The next best thing we did was to buy Octapus cards for everyone and we used these on the trains and buses. We did all the usual tourist attractions including Macau and visited every market in Hong Kong.

We had airport/hotel transfers with tour east and these were managed with their usual 5 star service. Overall a fantastic holiday

We have chosen this hotel for the location only : this is fine, as a Tube station is next door and the ferry to Honk Kong island is only 5min walk. But this is the only good reason to chose it.
As we were a family of 3, we have chosen a superior room : 12 square meter only, no place for the baggage, the wardrobe is just for one. I complained about at the hotel Duty Manager, asking if a normal would be only 6square meter in which you cannot walk around the bed. I was told that the normal rooms are exactly the same but that the decoration is just nice in the superior. Why should we pay more, just for a painting ? Ridiculous. The service was not good at all : staff are talking to you as if you are disturbing them (coffee shop) and are not flexible at all. There are not customer minded as we are used to see in other countries (Thailand, Philippines). Except if you travelling alone and you want a nice location, I would not recommand this hotel and next time we will be in HKG, we will for sure chose something else.

I stayed there for several nights. The location was excellent. Metro is right outside of the hotel. When it is really hot out, like in August, you can go through the metro station to get to other places and stay cool. It is an expensive hotel, but when it is right next to the Penisula Hotel, you know it is going to be expensive. The room is OK, small, but efficient. The breakfast is not as good as other hotels in China. Usually when I visit China, the breakfast buffet is the best part, but this one, it was OK.
