We stayed at Kowloon Shangri-La for one night beginning of January 2008 on our way home from the Philippines. We had booked a rom with harbour view and must admit that it is quite a view! Hotel is great but sadly we did no have much time to see all features. Service was excellent, quick and efficient; all employee speaking fairly good english (which you do not necessarily find everywhere in HK). The room was excellent, the bathroom magnificent and it included all what can be expected for such a hotel. My wife and daughter enjoyed the indoor swimming pool even if of relatively small size. We tried the japanese restaurant at dinner and it was delightful. The hotel location is very good and practical, especially if you do not have much time to spend. We are definitely recommending this hotel with a little remark that was already made by another reviewer about internet: the room charge is not overpriced if comparison is made with other hotels in that categoy but we believe it should include free internet access. After all, many cheaper hotels around the world anyhow provide free internet access. So, Shangri-La why not your turn?

What a great hotel, situated on Kowloon waterfront. We arrived at the airport and got a bus directly to the hotel ( ask at bus desks). I would recommend a taxie as the return journay worked out cheaper. Our room was very large with a kingsize bed. The bathroom was beautiful and the whole room was so nice i did not want to leave. We had a view of both the shops & harbour ( which was beautiful due to the xmas lights). We frequently jumped on the star ferry ( connect to Hong Kong Island) which was 10mins walk away and often ate in the many restaurant just 5 mins walk away from the hotel. This hotel is everything you would expect for a 5 star hotel.

Hotels do not come any better than this. Fantastic harbour-view suite, amazing levels of service, wonderful ambience - better still than the Langham Place, which is saying something!

We were only in Hong Kong for one night so didn't use all the facilities of the Kowloon Shangri-la, but the service was fantastic.

We splurged on a harbour view room; the view wasn't straight-on towards Central but was still lovely. We were on the club floor which was nice mainly for check-in and check-out; also breakfast was great, but the evening cocktail time was rather mobbed and not terribly relaxing.

The room was incredibly spacious, for Hong Kong, and the staff was over-the-top gracious and helpful. I'd stay here again.
