W Hong Kong Hotel

[superchris]

This Hotel continues to set very high service levels and continues to overwhelm me from airport pick up to check out.
Three recent stays have all been upgraded to XX01 suites.
The Hotel seduces you in every way and I long for my next stay.
Best Hotel I have stayed at (the MO bangkok is now #2)

Don't forget Sunday night..Salsa night!!
Not your cheapest Hotel option but easy to find and I like that its not in the Nathan Rd or Wanchai areas.
I know whay QF009 likes its so much..thanks Keith.

You must try the Żubrówka Apple Martini at the "Living Room" bar, best in the world IMO

For the cheap-y travellers such as myself you definitely do not need an airport transfer to the hotel and vice versa when the Airport Express train can take you from Airport to the Kowloon Station takes about 22 minutes or so. From there, its a 5 minute walk through the Elements Shopping Centre and you're at the hotel. Similarly, there is an express airport check-in at the station to make departures a breeze. Check-in, drop your bags off, go into town for some Dim Sum ... before heading to the airport, where you can eat more dim sum in the lounges

BTW isn't there a W Hong Kong master thread somewhere?

Have to agree with you Alanslegal. Last time we arrived in HK it was raining. Took the Airport Express and got from the airport to hotel reception without ever having to step out into the weather. Checked our bags at the railway station for the return... it is just too easy. Love this hotel.

Have to agree, I got to stay at the W HK free when I won a competition so this may have coloured my thinking but this is absolutely my favourite hotel I've ever stayed in too.

Love the location and all the touches, cool bar and once of the best pools I've ever seen.

 

[yohy?!]

I've stayed twice now after winning a competition too and just love waking up to the morning sun and the expansive harbour view

Yay for the G&A Fantastic Suites. I reckon they're actually sexier than the Marvellous Suites despite the latter being one category up - too boxy for me (though love the cool bright orange theme)!

There's a Starwood Hong Kong master thread started by yours truly ages ago including my write up of the W.

You have convinced me, it's on my list!!

It's great being close to Kowloon Station

For those wondering about location, the W Hong Kong is located behind the LCC and the now opened RC Hong Kong.

World's highest hotel opens

As much as I wanted to check the RC out, the rates for the days I am there is 3x what I am paying for at the W.
