“OK for business, definitely not for leisure”

Renaissance Harbour View Hotel Hong Kong

Jul 8, 2008
1/4 found this review helpful

Stayed for a week during the typhoon season (not a good idea).

Good average hotel; don’t forget to request for the harbor view. I stayed at the 11th floor, which is the only floor with a balcony with the harbor view. If you plan to stay during daytime, DON'T they're under renovation it's very noisy.

Room is a bit small for the price; breakfast is boring and almost the same everyday, lobby is very ‘cold’ and uninviting, could use more flowers or decoration.

Plus point:
Close to public transportation (skybridge to MTR station is connected to the hotel) and Ferry to Kowloon is just across the street.

Recommended for business traveler, but definitely not for leisure or romance.

“Fantastic Location”

Renaissance Harbour View Hotel Hong Kong

4 of 5 stars
Dublin, Ireland
Jul 5, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

Myself and my wife stayed here as part of our round the world honeymoon.
We picked this hotel, mainly because of its location and views.We were not disappointed.The views from our room were spectacular.
The room was a good size with all the normal features.
We received a cake,fruit and a bottle of wine on arrival,as a honeymoon present ,which was nice.
The hotel is 5 min walk to star ferry which we used nearly everyday.Taxis in the city are really cheap.We used the underground but I found that you have to walk a lot more to platforms than you do on other cities undergrounds.But maybe I was feeling just a bit more lazy than usual.
In general the staff were helpful,although the conceirge could have been alot more polite.This was'nt just one of them but actually two different men who manned the desk at different occasions.
We had drinks in the bar and the two singers & piano man were excellent.
The pool area is lovely and the staff very attentive.Be warned though food and drink prices are ridiculous.
The internet room was easy to use and prices quiet reasonable.
There is a small shop which was handy.
And we booked all of our excursions at the desk in the lobby.
We will stay here when we return to Hong Kong.

“Beautiful but noisy and overpriced”

Renaissance Harbour View Hotel Hong Kong

Jun 17, 2008
1/3 found this review helpful

I recently stayed at the Renaissance Harbour View in Hong Kong and seemed to have nothing but problems. The hotel is very nice but our first room smelled moldy and drove my allergic wife crazy. Our next room was recently renovated and very nice (sans mold) but our Harbour View was directly into the crane at the Exhibition Center construction site. Our final room was great but the constant daily drilling and jack hammering was extremely annoying. The hotel notice of some construction noise understated the issue. Overall, I will probably not stay at this hotel again. The staff was great but the noise and moldy smell (and we were not alone in this observation) were too much considering the price of the room. Although we asked for an adjustment to our rate it was ignored. We did change hotels to a cheaper Renaissance in Kowloon that was perfect.

“Great location. Fine hotel for sites and business.”

Renaissance Harbour View Hotel Hong Kong

Jun 11, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

Greatest thing about this hotel was the location adjoining the convention center (and with direct access to the ferries and the subway). It was our first trip to Hong Kong and we chose the hotel for it's location. Hotel was very expensive, but the service and facilities were quite impressive. We had a 'garden view' room on the 33rd floor which is code for 'we don't promise you a harbor view'. Hotel is built to provide a fanstastic view to most rooms, so our room on the end had a bit of a strange shape. In terms of meals, we particularly enjoyed lunch in the Lobby Lounge (HK$138) -- this was 4 courses and we enjoyed each one. We also tried their expensive Italian restaurant (La Scala)and my Italian husband thought it was reasonably good. The garden is on the 11th floor and is shared with the Hyatt Regency -- it's quite impressive with grass/trees, multiple pools and a restaurant that looked nice but did not seem to be open when I was there. The fitness room is shared with the Hyatt and is attended and well equipped. Clientel was almost entirely british/australian/US at breakfast (buffet), but at dinner (buffet) it switched to almost entirely Chinese. There also seemed to be a large number of airline crews coming and going. I really enjoyed my visit and would return, particularly if the rate was better.

“highly recommended for the tired business traveller”

Renaissance Harbour View Hotel Hong Kong

5 of 5 stars
Los Angeles, CA
May 25, 2008
4/5 found this review helpful

This is one of my favorite hotels in Hong Kong, and where I typically stay. The views are just fantastic, make sure you request a room with the Harbour View, and preferably the Club Level. At the club level they will give you great service, remember your name, and help you with your travel, reservations, airport, etc without having to be with the masses downstairs in the lobby.
They have a very good (for Asia) gym facility and you can go to the spa next door at the Hyatt. They used to have a great sauna next to the gym that was more Hong Kong style, with a relaxation room, sauna, jacuzzi, and then a private massage - where the girls would even offer "specials", but alas this closed about a year ago.
Very good central location all around, close to Central and business district, and you can walk to Wan Chai at night for some bar-hopping fun
