While I'm glad that there is a Centurion Lounge at HKG I really wish there would be more attention to detail. Stopping by here rather frequently, the hot food is often out and isn't being replenished for quite some time. The washrooms also seem to have maintenance issues more often than not. Maybe time to give it an overhaul or even find another location and enhance the space because the Centurion can fill out during peak hours. read more

The Centurion Lounge - Amex Centurion Lounge Hong Kong HKG - Airport Lounges Near Me - Hong Kong, HK

The Centurion Lounge had took a step down. While I still appreciate its offerings, it feels like it used to be a slightly better lounge. Some cutbacks are definitely noticeable, especially with the absence of TWG tea and fewer quality food and plant-based options available compared to before. At times it feels like they are just winging it and see where we land. Pun intended. That said, the staff remains kind and helpful. Special thanks to the cleaning staff who managed the facilities who enhances the experience. The showers are fantastic. A refreshing break during travel. The L'Occitane amenities are a lovely touch. I also enjoyed the whimsy of having a non-alcoholic drink dedicated to Sir Charles Frosty Blue. American Express' apparent loyal watchdog in every lounge. It added a fun element to my visit. While there are some improvements needed, it still has its charm. It is still plane awesome in many ways. read more

Omg, excellent care from the staff at the centurion Club at Hong Kong airport! Rose and Steven prepared coffee drinks and cocktails very quickly and efficiently! Food was delicious without much of a line. There was a shower available but only one so I did not use it. Mr Rolex has an amazing black face GMT and Noreen the supervisor checked in on me frequently. Three words, Yoichi single malt! Available after 7:00 a.m. read more

This lounge although not very big does offer all the amenities as other centurion lounges. The items offered at the buffet were good but I felt more of a variety could've made it better. Upon entering the lounge I was met by a Centurion representative who escorted me to my table. Unlike other lounges where you're often left to find your own seat this was a welcome surprise. The lounge was clean and well kept and the tables were cleared upon each guests departure. The staff were very friendly and interacted with guests as they walked around. read more

This was our third lounge visited during the layovers we had in HKIA. I've never visited a Centurion Lounge before so one of group got us in as a Platinum AMEX cardholder. The entrance was the most impressive of the three. After checking us in, we were escorted to the back and then shown to an available table. Some of the other tables had reserved signs on them so I didn't know that one could do that in a lounge. Definitely a couple lounge firsts on this trip.. However,the ambiance was bit underwhelming and spacing seemed a bit tighter than the other two HKIA lounges. If I had to do some work while waiting for my next flight then I'd prefer the Chase Sapphire Lounge Having eaten earlier, I just cruised the buffet line and the food selection was fairly typical so I ended up passing. The bar was busy and looked well stocked. There also seems to be a good number of staff checking food levels and clearing tables regularly. read more

The Centurion Lounge - Nice entrance to the Centurion Lounge. - Airport Lounges Near Me - Hong Kong, HK

I was a little disappointed with the lounge given most Asian airport lounges are amazing and this is definitely not up to par with the others. It did its job offering a space for you to rest and a buffet which includes hot food items. I came in the early morning so was offered breakfast and found the selection to be minimal. I did not make use of the bar since it's so early in the morning (but they do offer alcohol) so decided to opt for tea with my breakfast. Unfortunately, the tea selection was next to none. You can choose between English breakfast, green tea or camomile and I found that depressing. The space is much smaller than expected and had mostly uncomfortable wire chairs and not a lot of loungers. The service however was impeccable. Everyone was friendly and courteous with a smile on their face. I probably won't return to this lounge next time I'm in HKG read more

One of the better Centurion Lounges I've visited. No made to order food but they keep their hot food bar well stocked. There's a line, as with many of the Centurion lounges, to get in during peak times, and a line for the food, but they do a good job of making sure you have a seat once you're admitted into the lounge. One of my favorite features here is their fridge filled with Movenpick ice cream (strawberry, vanilla and chocolate flavors) and they had the best airport coffee- ask the barista to make it for you instead of getting it from the machine. I also enjoyed their Chinese style soups. Bathroom is small but clean. And they have a few comfortable lounge chairs in the back. read more

On par with the other lounges in HKG. I usually put Centurion Lounges on a pedestal but this one felt ordinary. It's hard when you had a few others literally steps away and you can jump from lounge to lounge. The food selection was OK with a few dim sum options and some Asian and Western options. The bar was decent with a coffee bar with a barista and a normal bar. Seating is tight and since it's pretty crowded, you are sitting pretty close to others. I heard the Centurion Card section is better but since I don't qualify, can't not say anything about that. They have one shower which gets booked really quickly, but one benefit if that you can use your Amex card to book a shower room across the at the Plaza Premium Lounge a few steps away. Solid perk on this front so at least you can still shower if you have time. read more

Honestly I was a little disappointed... with the food. But overall it does the job for a rest & snack to recharge. The lounge is clean but not as big as I expected. Compared to the one in LGA and JFK, this one is kind of like "mish mosh" with uncomfortable wire seats... and some bench seating, still uncomfortable... Expected the bathroom to be a tad nicer. I mean... the bathrooms from the Delta Sky lounges are amazing... so why wouldn't Centurion have really nice bathrooms as well? The food selection was not very good. I mean, it does the job of feeding you, but didn't taste good. I did enjoy the fresh fruit tho. Bar is nice. Coffee station could be better... nicer cappuccino machine would be great. I love the citrus sparkling water from other centurion lounges... sadly this one does not have that offering. I've been to 3 of the Plaza Premium lounges here at HKG... and while smaller, their food is more on point. The staff are nice and welcoming. Check in process was smooth. We got the eligibility code, but was 30 mins early to the "3 hr" allowance, so was asked to come back. But at least they held our spots and didn't have to get a new code for entry. We went to the Priority lounge while we waited the 30 mins. Which is across from this lounge. read more

The food in general is average, and the only reason why I gave it 4 stars is because of the Chinese herbal soup which was good and not so common in lounges. Kudos to American Express for offering a local soup in foreign countries. Service was also good as the receptionist called an attendant inside to find me a table while I was checking in so I didn't have to find my own table. read more

Food quality seems to have fallen a notch from last time I visited. Cleanliness could be better. Staff needs to smile more. Here is a hard lesson learned: we were traveling in from Macau after our stay, but the front desk did not treat this as a layover - but as a locals because instead of flying in, we rode the official border crossing bus called the Gold Bus. Due to this AMEX guidelines, we have to follow the 3 hour before departure rule for lounge entry. That was a bummer not to feel love, so be warned. read more

11/11 I am a huge fan of American Express's network of airport lounges. In my opinion they are a cut above other airport lounges that one can visit with networks such as Priority Pass. For anyone such as myself who do not fly First or Business Class; lounges can be slim but thankfully because I hold a Platinum Card, my entry into one is a bit easier. My favorite of the lounges in AMEX's network would be the LAS (Las Vegas) airport lounge, where it just received an expanded makeover, the food is still delicious and my favorite drink is still the Air Mail. So how does this lounge fit in? Located at HKG (Hong Kong) International Airport; it can be found post security on the same level as other premium lounges. Ceilings are open air and left high so you can see the teal glass. It is one of the smallest of AMEX run and operated lounges. So with that being said, there was a line and a small wait. I was however informed that I can also visit the adjacent Plaza Premium Lounge. I would like to be an AMEX devotee so I decided to wait for an open seat. The Service: I was initially seated in this one secluded corner away from the hustle and bustle of the main dining room. However I did not feel like leaving my suit case unattended in an area where my eyes cannot see. I asked a waitress if I could sit at an assumed empty seat, but that my request was declined, only to be accommodated shortly after. It was a welcome change as I did not mind the chatter of the other people in the busier parts of the lounge. The Food: I came hungry and so with glee I grabbed some hot food from the buffet. There was even soup, which was a welcome surprise. I also had the lounge's signature blue drink, which was not blue but was a mixture of citrus and sparking wine. The chaser was Grape Fanta, a marvelous soft beverage that I've become so fond of on this particular trip. Overall: while this lounge did feel small; the food was delicious, the interior clean and pristine, accommodating service, and an open bar makes up for the lack of space. read more

I'm upgrading my review to a 4 due to a recent visit where I found the food to be much better. The place was full for a Sunday and AMEX or AE as it is called in HK should really find a larger space to accommodate demand. read more

The Centurion Lounge in Dallas has spoiled me too much. This is the 3rd Centurion we have been to, and it's a shame to say it's last on our list. They do have a nice bar and decent food options. However, the seatings are not comfortable at all and very limited. Not sure if this has anything to do with the Centurion Card (Black Card) Access Lounge that's located inside here. If drinks and sweets are your priority, this is the lounge. They offer several different dessert bites. Also this is the only lounge we've been to that has the whole fresh honeycomb for you to get as much or as little as you want!!!! Since there are several lounges at this airport, and one another just right around the corner, we decided to make our way overthere for more comfortable seatings and also noodle soup! For now, Centurion Dallas continues to be my favorite! read more

We had a long layover in Hong Kong and had access to this lounge by virtue of having the Amex Platinum credit card so decided to check it out. Pros: great drink selection including numerous specialty drinks, great service staff, shower facilities were amazing with towels, soap and other bath amenities provided. Cons: the chairs here are very uncomfortable. The space feels small for the amount of people that use the lounge. read more

Exceptional food options, especially when offered Black card food faire. Crafted drinks oh so nice. Space can become crowded, but well worth it. So glad I was able to experience it. read more

I love this Centurion Lounge in HKG. Usually I hang out in one of the Plaza Premium Lounge when I fly out from HKG. But this Lounge is so much better. Less crowded. A full well stocked bar where they have a Asian Inspired cocktail menu or you can ask the bartender to mix you anything. Food selection is decent. Plenty of seating options. Compares to the Centurion Lounge I had been in North America, I found HKG is not as busy and with more food selection. I really can just spend a few hours and try out all the cocktails on the menu and just eat Har Gow with Chilli oil and be happy. Hopefully it would stay not too crowded next time when I route through HKG. read more

This is the only Centurion Lounge I've been to (so far) since my husband has the AmEx card. It's a great addition to the already amazing HKG, the only reasons I'm giving it a 4-stars is due to the UN-comfortable chairs. Some has cushion which are hard to come by, but the rest of the chairs are these metal ones with gaps. I can see they don't want you to get TOO comfy and stay too long. After you check-in, there are also 2 conference like rooms on your right before you get to the general public area. Sometimes I see family with small kids or businessmen doing work. I'm not sure if those if those are time based reservations, but I'm usually in the general area where the food are. Another reason for a star knocked off is their women's bathroom. The lights are too dim to put on make-up and there are only 3 stalls, so sometimes you have to wait. The lounge is near Gate 60. It is not that big but I love the big bright windows where you can see the runways. (Unlike the Priority Pass lounge at HKG by Gate 1-4) There are many kinds of hot tea bags, juices, sparkling water and a coffee/latte machine. I don't drink alcohol but there's a large bar with a bartender. Various salads, appetizers, soup, entrees, and plenty of Movenpick ice cream that's always refilled. Service is fast and they are always cleaning up your table. read more

Came here on a morning before my 10am flight, they were serving breakfast and had a great buffet spread. Surprised to see porridge! They served alcohol including hard liquor in the morning, had some whiskey at 9am and that was good! They also served TWG tea which is quite high quality Definitely on par with many centurion lounges back in the stages. BTW I noticed they used the same utensils and cups as the ones back in the states. Just some weird things I pay attention too =) used my business amex platinum card, friendly staff at the front reception! read more

I've been to many Centurion lounges over the past few years, but this one was simply ordinary. The Centurion Lounge at Hong Kong International Airport is located on the Mezzanine level, but feels super tiny compared to other lounges at the airport. During the morning hours, it was extremely hard to find a seat. The breakfast items at this lounge was actually better than other Centurion Lounges I've visited, but the size and over crowding made it hard to enjoy. I think in general Centurion Lounges have gotten overrated but this place is not a bad way to kill a couple of hours before a long flight. read more

The Centurion Lounge at HKG Terminal 1 is an open terrace like space that is sleek and modern. The bar holds fort in the middle and provides signature cocktails by Jim Meehan from PDT at The Landmark Mandarin Oriental in Hong Kong. They also have wines handpicked by a renowned wine authority by the name of Anthony Giglio. For quick stop, the seating is sufficient but for a longer rest, they are lacking big comfy chairs. In the very few booth tables they have, there are electrical outlets. Food was okay but the Cathay business class lounge food is definitely superior. A variety of western and local food was provided. Service is friendly and they have people cleaning constantly. Overall I would give this lounge a 3.5. read more

Centurion Lounge officially opened on October 2. Just over a month old, this place is better than the United Club or the Silver Crest lounge in Hong Kong. I have been to a few premium lounges which you can access to using Amex Platinum card but this one is better I think because of the lack of riffraffs, fewer people means the facility is kept nice and clean and plenty of good seats and view. I liked the shower very much, though they did tell me that there was no blow dryer so I did not wash my hair. The buffet is okay, nothing to write home about, but I'm on a diet and I prefer less food and more space to sit around which this place has. It's on top of gate 60, and it's right next to a bunch of other lounges, and there is a Premium Lounge right across, I may pop on in to see if they carried bottled water to take onto the plane. One of the previously reviews did state that this place is nice but nothing to distinguish itself with the other lounges. I think there is some truth to that. The Dallas lounge has southwestern food and massage; the SFO one is good with their wine selection and gourmet Californian style food; the Vegas one is known for its cocktails, even the mini Seattle one has sort of high tech feel and health food kicks. I don't know what the theme is for the Hong Kong one. I was a bit disappointed by that. The food is hodgepodge of east vs. west but there isn't anything that screams that this is a Centurion Hong Kong lounge - which is a bit odd considering that's sort of their shtick in the States. I have been to the one in Mexico City which gives the same meh vibe when it comes to food, so I imagine that their international strategy is different than its domestic strategy. Regardless, I liked the open air atmosphere, and the password is the same as the rest of the lounges. They lent me a outlet plug which is helpful as I didn't bring a Hong Kong plug this time. There are plenty of bar seats with power outlets and USB ports. So from that perspective, this is quite the home away from home. For Americans, no matter what we do where we are, when abroad, we want something that reminds us of our home. This is one such oasis in Hong Kong. Highly recommend. read more

This lounge is near Gate 60, next to one of the Plaza Premium lounges at HKG. It is more exclusive than PP and thus less crowded, plus it's swankier. However, the lady at the counter was terrible to me when I asked her about bringing a guest. She said loudly and rudely, "Since you did not spend $75k last year, you will have to pay $50." While I'm fine with her conveying the rule to me, I did not need everyone in line to hear any private information about my spending. I almost left and went to PP then. read more

I've always heard great things about Centurion lounges, but only recently jumped the bandwagon of obtaining access. Thus far, I can only compare this to the Centurion Lounge at SFO. I think the food here (HKG) is better, but the drinks and seating arrangements are slightly better at the SFO lounge. However, the bathrooms are very clean and this lounge was half-full at most, so we definitely felt comfortable and relaxed while we waiting for our flight. We may have overindulged on the crab cakes, but no regrets! My alcohol tolerance has decreased to such a level that my face turned beet red after a few sips of champagne, and before I knew it, the bartender graciously placed a glass of water next to me. *_* Definitely a nice spot to get away from the airport hustle and bustle, and less crowded than the PP lounges! read more

This lounge is a great escape from the bustling airport and the other crowded priority lounge. I was here twice within the past two weeks and it wasn't crowded both times, with and ample amount of seatings. The food offerings were decent, nothing spectacular, and they didn't refill on certain things at times. However the mixed drinks are where they shine. I had the gin basil collins and my friend had the tea-quila highball. Both were great and the bartender does not skimp on the alcohol. The second visit, I asked for the gin basil collins but with whiskey. The bartender thought it would be weird but told me he'll improvised. It was delicious! It was like a whiskey sour with a hint of yuzu and herb. Yum! He even came by our table to inquire on the drink. The coffee are also great here as they use Lavazza coffee and has each espresso drink made to order. read more

Used the lounge on a red eye flight out of HKG and there was minimal people inside the lounge. The restrooms and showers were nice but seating isn't very comfortable.

We were really excited to check this lounge out since the LAX location hasn't opened yet and had a 2 hour layover thru Hong Kong.

The customer service itself was great and location was convenient to get to in terminal one. read more

A nice lounge although seating is not as ample as one would like. For me as a single traveler it was fine, but if I were with a companion it would have been more difficult. Food selection was a great spread, refreshed constantly, and delicious taste. Better than any HKG restaurant. PLEASE note that if your flight is at one of the lower numbered gates, you *cannot take the train back to that area. You must walk as the train is one way only!

The Centurion Lounge at HKG is my first international Centurion experience, and I'd say it was not bad at all. It's on the smaller side, but had a decent selection of food and drinks. The staff were all friendly, and kept the lounge nice and clean. I didn't stay for long, but I can imagine that this lounge can easily get overcrowded, especially since it has such limited seating. Regardless, it's still a nice little spot to escape to during layovers in HK. read more

A nice little respite from the usual airport wait! Checking in was a breeze and the staff were beyond kind to this jet lagged person! I flew business class on Cathay but couldn't help popping up for a looksie at this lounge to see how it stacked up. While the food offering was not great they did have a full bar with cocktails and nice champagne. The lounge is open and so it feels more like you are at a restaurant eatery. There is nowhere to post up to nap or anything like that. Still, if I wasn't flying business class (which unfortunately is usually the case) I'd be happy to have this lounge to recharge in. Waiting in the crowded boarding area is the pits so I'm glad to have this option! read more

Overall the Centurion Lounges are the best I've been to. It would be 5 stars if not for the lack of seat availability. Location: The lounge is near Gate 60. You can either take the tram one stop or you can walk the long hallway down the middle. When you get off the tram, you will see a big sign for Cathay's The Bridge lounge. The Amex lounge is basically above you. Head towards Gate 60 and you will see an escalator that takes you up to the area with all the lounges. About the lounge: Smaller than I expected but the nicest lounge I've visited in terms of quality. Everything looks high-end. My previous favorite lounge (Cathay's The Wing at HKG) is much larger and has a wider food menu, but the Centurion is more upscale and the food quality is superior. Seating is tight and the main weakness of this lounge. Instead of picking which seating type you'd like, you basically take the only seat that is remaining. Drinks: There is a large bar with bartender. The OJ is delicious. Near the flight screen is a hot/cold water dispenser and a fridge with carbonated drinks. The sparking water is on the counter next to the water dispenser. Food: The best way to describe this is with pictures, but my favorite two entrees on this day were fried shrimp wrapped in this potato "string" that makes it look like a cocoon, and a crab shell that is stuffed with crab and mashed potatoes. There are salads that actually look appealing, and other hot entrees including roasted root vegetables. There is a rack of fresh/raw honeycomb next to the bread, and instead of peanuts there is a bowl of dried apricots. Everything is just nicer. Food is super tasty, and better than many airport restaurants. Service is good, food is quickly restocked before the trays go empty, and plates are cleaned up quickly. There are two large TVs showing the news, and a screen with the latest flight info. There is also a meeting room available that looks like a nice conference room that you'd find in a corporate office. read more

I've been to three - LAS, SEA, & HK. What's compelling is that here's delicious asian food here in Hong Kong which is not found at the other two. Thus far there are differences with other lounges like priority pass or United, American, & the Escape brand. That means if I plop you down blindfolded, you'll know which Centurion Lounge you have been sequestered in. Firstly the Asian food, er Chinese is great. 'Nuff said. Next let's talk about the outstanding full bar (or to insiders : leg!) with it's own special menu different from the other 2 centurion's. Like all Centurion's, you want, they have...botanist gin from IR, cognac & etc with no problem & no throttle (see LAS review where they only give you 1 cocktail with your id; you can't even get the 2nd for your husb, wife, friend, or travelling companion as they must come to the bar themselves) Here, they turned the tv on to the superbowl for us which was great as we were travelling that day & had a 3.5 hr layover. The biggest drawback is the space with people constantly coming & going... never was crowded the 2 times I was here but I can see where it could get to be that way. There's only one shower so make sure to sign up as there's certainly a wait but several no shows so I got in in about 35 minutes. I'd definitely come back here but don't think it's going to be like the Pier (a famous HK airport lounge). read more

First things first, shout out to my boyfriend for being a Platinum American Express cardholder! We stopped by here twice to escape the hustle and bustle of the HKG airport while we wait for our flights to and from Bali and I've never felt so happy to be in this lounge. I've only been to 3 Centurion Lounges and this one by far is my favorite! It's spacious and clean, even the women's bathroom. And the ambiance of the lounge was quite relaxing. Wifi also was pretty fast and the staff were so friendly, especially the bartenders. They have good food selection that we actually loved everything we tried especially the shrimp dumpling with XO sauce from our first layover and the mussels curry from the second one. Yes, I overindulged both times. But my most favorite was their cappuccino. So good and creamy! My bf liked how they have his favorite water: Acqua Panna. Overall, everything here felt upscale and high end. Seating, however, wasn't as ample as one would expect and it was a major inconvenience. The first time we came here, the seating was not an issue at all but the second time, there were barely any open tables nor seats left since some guests grabbed two chairs to sleep on. So that was inconsiderate. Hopefully the next time we go back, it will be better. read more

This was the second Centurion lounge that I have visited, the other lounge that I visited was at DFW and I prefer that one more. The Centurion lounge at HKG is located near Gate 60 and is on level 7. You can access this lounge either by elevator or by escalator. It is about a 15 minute stroll (when not utilizing the moving walkways) from security/immigration. You also have the option of using the airtrain that will decrease the amount of time you need to walk from security to gate 60. Generally I like the walk because I usually am departing on a long haul flight. The lounge is on the same floor as the United and Emirates lounges. There is a metal archway that leads into the reception desk. When we checked in, we were a group of 4. We were told that the lounge was fairly full and that we would most likely need to share tables. After checking in, we walked down a fairly lengthy hallway to the main area. There were a few meeting rooms in the hallway that were occupied by families. Additionally, there was a single call room where someone seemed to be making a business call. Once we reached the main area, we were directed to an open table for four. It was quite nice to have a clean table ready for us, as at DFW, I just wondered around to find a table. The main area is rather small, as there is another section dedicated for Centurion card holders. The food was of pretty high quality and did a great job showcasing some specialties from HK. In addition to a hot food buffet, there is a full bar, a soda/tea area and a coffee machine. There was also a freezer full of Movenpick ice creams, the flavors available were chocolate, coffee and strawberry. Two individuals in my part tried the chocolate ones and enjoyed them but when I tried the coffee flavor, mine was half melted. When ordering items from the bar, they usually tell you to come back in 5 minutes as they would not like individuals to block the bar area. I appreciated this even through the bar was not busy as I was able to go get food or use the bathroom while they prepared my drink. In terms of the bathrooms, they are behind the bar and are rather small and dark. The women's bathroom only had 3 stalls. There was one additional handicap bathroom that can be used by anyone located outside the women's bathroom. read more
