Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają
- Direct elevator access to Pacific Place mall and Admiralty MTR (super convenient)
- The 'Grand Premier' renovated rooms are stunningly modern with daybeds and filtered water taps
- Yun Wellness is arguably the best hotel spa and gym complex on Hong Kong Island right now
Szybki przegląd: It's a tale of two hotels: the renovated rooms are world-class luxury, but the unrenovated 'Deluxe' rooms feel like a 1990s time capsule.
Przejrzane przez @travelwithcg: I stayed here recently and the atrium is just stunning—photos don't do it justice. My room was super cozy with a peaceful mountain view, and I really appreciated the premium John Masters toiletries.
