Marco Polo Hongkong Hotel Review

The best (and most expensive) of three Marco Polo properties lining this street, this hotel is as close as you can get to the Star Ferry and is connected to the largest shopping complex in Asia, Harbour City. In fact, its lobby opens right into the Lane Crawford department store, making for an "only in Hong Kong" surreal experience. Large rooms are mostly so-called "Hollywood" twins (two twin beds pushed together) with a sitting area, large working desks, and walk-in closet. The lowest-price rooms face the small courtyard swimming pool and other guest rooms and can be quite dark, while the most expensive rooms boast unparalleled views of harbor activity, including the ocean liners that dock right next door. Avoid rooms facing Canton Road, which can be noisy. Down the street are the Marco Polo Gateway (tel. 852/2113 0888) and the Marco Polo Prince (tel. 852/2113 1888), which are cheaper but with fewer facilities. For my money, I'd rather stay at several of the other hotels listed in this price category than the merely functional Marco Polo brands.

Facilities:
4 restaurants; lounge; babysitting; executive-level rooms; access to nearby health club (fee charged); small heated outdoor pool open year-round; room service; spa

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
