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 heritage hotel with modern facilities. Very service oriented staff and culture.
The given room was very clean. The daily cleaning was excellent. Good location at the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui. The breakfast environment and food were excellent although the food verity could be better.

Very good
The staff were kind and upgraded our room for maximum comfort. (Proof of excellent hotel management.) The dinner buffet was excellent, especially the tender ox tongue...(drooling) Thank you for preparing the mother's day cake for us! Had bath robes and cute slippers for kids.
The swimming pool was too cold, suggest to improve the heating system. The virus restriction was over but the sauna and SPA facilities was still closed. No breakfast buffet during our stay, even after virus restrictions were lifted. Facilities in the bathroom and SPA area were too old, suggest to invest in improvements. The hotel needs to provide more entertainment for children. (There was not much children could do in the hotel) Sadly the Peninsula umbrellas were sold out.

The best staff in Hong Kong settle you into the worst beds.
We’ve stayed at every major hotel in Hong Kong, and The Peninsula has the best staff in the entire city!
The ‘King-sized Bed’ was two Twin Beds pushed together, and we could feel the crease between them. This is meant to be a 5 STAR Hotel, so we felt this was shocking. Sure, the rooms are small for the price, because it’s a comparatively ‘ancient’ hotel, but the bed situation felt like an unforgivable sin. Also, the breakfast orange juice was clearly made from disgusting concentrate, and the meal was set, rather than buffet or á la carte, without many exciting options.

Outstanding
The Peninsula is such a gorgeous hotel. All of the staff are very friendly and professional. Our room was stunning and beds...well let’s just say I’ve never slept so well in my life. Exceptional beds and bedding. I was there to celebrate my birthday with my daughter and the hotel were fabulous and even brought up a beautiful cake and card. Outstanding! We Hope to visit again for our next holiday.
