“Excellent hotel with impeccable service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed here in March 2011 prior to a cruise leaving from Ocean Terminal. Had a room with a fantastic view of the harbour which was ready in the morning and so had access when we arrived after the flight arriving in the early morning. [ Although we upgraded our room on arrival ] Quick and trouble free check-in. Lovely pot of tea awaiting us in our room on our return from a walk on our first day. Fantastic staff- helpful but unobtrusive- lovely, spacious room and ideally situated for shopping and for the terminal which is only minutes away. Treated ourselves to the hotel car from the airport which was a great way to arrive. Ate in the hotel's chinese restaurant on two occasions and could not really fault food or service. Busy but comfortable lobby. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Room Tip: try to get a room with a view of the harbour.

“Good location but overall Impersonal”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 February 2012

Currently staying at this hotel in Kowloon, Tsim Sha Tsui area. The hotel is centrally located, just a couple of minutes of Nathan road, the main shopping street of the Kowloon area. Have chosen a Horizon Premier Room because it is slightly larger than the other rooms. However, the view on the garden/city is so bad that I would advise to take the slightly smaller Harbour View room. The rooms are insulated badly, so expect lots of noise from passing guests. Furthermore, be mindful of rooms close to the elevators and service elevators, like room 1947, as there is a constant noise of passings & goings. The Horizon rooms give access to the Horizon Club. The offering of food and service there is below standard and certainly not in line with other Shangri-La properties. Furthermore, staff are already setting up for next day's breakfast at 10 PM although the Club is open till 10:30 PM. Upon arriving at 10:10 PM for an after dinner coffee, we were kindly informed that the Club would be closing at 10:30. We received our coffee but felt constantly rushed by the staff to finish it as soon as possible. The in-room dining food is very good, with many possible choices, and service is fast and stylish. We also tried the Japanese restaurant called 'Nadaman'. Service here was very slow and overall lacking. We waited for more than 1 hour on our main course to then find out the waitress had never ordered it in the first place. Upon asking the staff, we only received a short 'sorry' and were presented with our bill. Overall, this hotel delivers in the Shangri-La brand, but I have to concur with previous reviews stating that this is an impersonal hotel, with service lacking in key elements. It surely does not stand up against other properties like Singapore or Bangkok.

Room Tip: Please refrain from using room 1947 and surrounding rooms on 19th floor, as they are close to the se...

“Harbour view - ha!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

person found this review helpful

But some of the rooms have a beautiful harbor view....

The location was good for shopping on Nathan Road, the lobby well appointed, the service attentive, the room clean and spacious.

We had free wi-fi, though I believe all of HK has free wi-fi.... The room had a plug converter, so we didn't have to go through the hassle of getting one at the front desk. The bathroom was large with many of the forgotten items - including a hair scrunchy, which surprised me - and the shower was a rain shower and a hand held shower. Also, there was a hot water heater for tea and coffee which we ued every day.

Sleep quality - the bed are very comfortable with down bedding, but I honestly believe the air conditioning goes off at night, so one gets very warm.... too warm in the room.

Room Tip: Ask for that real harbour view - it is spectacular (we saw when they propped a door open for cleanin...

“Lovely location but expensive”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed in a Harbour View room very nice, great views, good bed, bathroom etc, just what you need after a long flight from London, Limo pick up was brilliant and reception first class . Our only negatives are that ground floor lounges were cold and we needed jumpers or even coats at times, also Angelina Restaurant was ok food wise but really expensive, we paid 2700HK for a fairly standard bistro standard meal wine was ridiculous. We will stay again if coming to HK but eat elsewhere.
