Stayed here the weekend of Sept 13-15th and once prior in fall of 2016. I absolutely love, love, love this hotel! The service here has been excellent both times. For this past weekend, the moment I got out of the taxi, the bellman came to assist us with our luggages (they watch over them while we check in). The lobby was huge and fancy! Since I booked about 6 months prior and am an Expedia VIP, I was given a free upgrade to the highest floor, 19th, and a thank letter with a bag of cookies. Check in was smooth and we were told to take the stairs from the 18th floor up to the 19th.
We were in room 1974. The room opens up to a hallway with the bathroom to the left and closet to the right. A king size bed awaits you, with a leather chair, desk, mini bar, and flat screen TV. Being at the highest floor, it was very quiet. Walls are thick and sound proof so you feel like you are in your own private world. The best part was the walk in shower!! I love showers that have strong jets in addition, this shower had thick glass doors so when you're in there, you are in another private world! You can not hear a thing outside with the shower going! Amenities include luxurious body soaps, shampoos, conditioners, comb, toothbrush/toothpaste, sewing kit, all the works are given. The maids always have a smile on their faces and greets you as you are leaving your room..
Besides the lovely hotel, its the location that makes this hotel even more awesome! You don't even need to walk outside to access Mong Kok East station or the mall. It is connected to the MOKO shopping mall which is multi levels of retail therapy and a MOKO food court upstairs. There are several restaurants as well which I dined at on level 6..Super Star Seafood Restaurant for Dim Sum and Jade Garden for dinner. Both are excellent. If you do venture out, its not a far walk to Ladies Street Market, outside restaurants, bargain markets, etc. Its also about a 15 mins walk to another giant mall called Langham Place which I discovered this time for more shopping! If you're going to HK..I highly recommend Royal Palace for their service, rooms, proximity to subway, mall, and food! read more
