Expert reviews
“Lording it over the southern tip of Kowloon, Hong Kong’s finest hotel exudes colonial elegance. Many rooms in the 20-storey annexe offer spectacular harbour views; in the original building you’ll have to make do with the glorious interiors.”
“This is Hong Kong’s legendary grand dame, built in 1928 to accommodate overland train passengers traveling through China and disembarking at nearby Kowloon Station. Yet the hotel is also stunningly up to date, with room renovations completed in 2013 that make it one of the most high-tech accommodations in the world.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Hong Kong.
“You know you’re somewhere special when pillbox-hatted pageboys politely whisk open double-front doors to reveal an airy lobby with soaring ceilings. And so it is at The Peninsula Hong Kong, the city’s oldest hotel (opened in 1928).”
“Although the Pen, established in 1928, is the Grand Old Lady of Hong Kong’s hotels there’s nothing fusty about her. With a helipad on the roof and a tea-time orchestra in the lobby, it stylishly combine the city’s past and its high-speed present.”

Excellent location Room with nice view Modern facilities
I didn’t receive any calls or messages as being told by hotel staff when the room was ready. My suitcases were not in the room as being told by hotel staff that they would be in the room. We could not log on to wifi by the room number and surname and had to call and request a different password.

A long awaited luxurious indulgence!
I lived in Hong Kong for 2 years, 30 years ago. I visited The Peninsula several times over that period including attending a fabulous New Years Eve party and I promised myself then that I would stay there "one day". I have returned to Hong Kong on 3 previous occasions but stayed elsewhere. On this occasion it was time. I waited 30 years to stay in the Grand Dame. We had a lovely room with an uninterrupted harbour view, we ate in several of the restaurants and I savoured every minute. The evening buffet in the Verandah restaurant with the drinks package was sumptuous and great value for money. We had drink in Gaddis and had lunch by the swimming pool, (make sure you try the crab spring rolls, they melt in your mouth). We ate a late supper in the Lobby and the waiter was friendly, chatting about the wine choices, even though we were coming up to the end of the food service time but he didn't rush us at all. The breakfast buffet was astonishingly varied and for one of my 4 (!) breakfast courses I had teriyaki salmon and deep fried crispy prawn wantons - just delicious! It was raining for most of our stay at The Peninsula and I didn't care one jot! We stayed in and enjoyed the hotel. I swam in the pool and we wanted for nothing. We didn't really explore the shops much but were pleasantly surprised to find a discount in the souvenir shop for hotel guests. All of the staff we talked to were uber friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and we particularly liked talking to the Food and Beverage Manager/Director (?) about how much we loved the food in the hotel and we also had an animated conversation with him about Arsenal Football Club! Finally, I was blown away by the size, quality and quantity of flower arrangements in the hotel. I am very interested in flower arranging and I have to commend the in house team for putting on so many flawless displays.
EEEEERRR, nothing! Well, perhaps one thing - we only stayed 2 nights and I wish it had been much longer.

Would like to come back again, there are no option other than here.
Staff is brilliant. The mixture of Old Hongkong and update HK. Building is part of history , the great entrepreneur build with dream.
Strict regulation constrains service but staff are flexible enough to host the guest.

Amazing and will be back for sure 🙌🏼
The property’s location was really great with the new K11 shopping centre being built right across the road. Furthermore, the staff’s etiquette as well as training goes above and beyond.
Because the hotel is world famous and many well known brands in the lobby, you often find groups of tourists in the lobby making it feel a little overcrowded. However, if you look past that the hotel is 100%.

We Hope to visit again for our next holiday.
