It was my first trip to Hong Kong. The location was excellent near the main streets and public transportations. lots of shops and mall. the problem was just internet fee was not included in the room rate. it was very cheap but I don't know why was not included.

I hadn't been to Hong Kong in years and the hotel rates were appallingly high. I got a good deal at The Excelsior and expected the adage "you get what you pay for". I was wrong. It was a real surprise. The location was great (although their famous harbour view fast disappearing with reclaimed land and rampant land development in... More

I stayed at the Excelsior in Hong Kong last night, and got a decent rate of HKD 1,780 on a Monday night, for a regular room. Checkin was very typical, front desk was well trained and scripted and my luggage was brought up to my room promptly. Room was clean and orderly. No extras, no surprises. I was hungry and... More

Hotel Service is great but be careful they don't position your room under the club floor dining area, as therse are quite noisy. The views form the club lounge are really spectacular and a great way to destress from Hong Kongs blistering pace. I would stay again but not under the lounge.

The reference to Mandarin in the hotel's name, might have raised my expectations a little too high. There was nothing really wrong with the hotel, but the rooms are showing their age despite recent renovations and I was expecting more.

I was there on a business and holiday trip and stayed on one of the the 'executive floors'. There were a few inclusive extras thrown in when you pay a little extra such as a personalised check-in facility without queueing in the lobby (this can get busy at times). We also had access to the executive lounge where you can... More

I had heard mixed reports but I was very happy with my one night stay. The check in was extremely efficient notwithstanding a busy lobby and the room was very comfortable, with a harbour view. Good breakfast, free wifi, and good Causeway Bay location minutes from Central by taxi or subway. Yes it's a bit dated And the bathroom was... More
