Stayed at JW this past Chinese New Year. This is indeed one of the luxury properties in its market, though not necessarily world renown.

I was able to obtain this property through PriceLine, and I probably got it 30% off as a result of that. On top of that, they kinda liked me, so they upgraded me to sea view for free.

The hotel is really nice, and the people are sweet indeed. Property sits on top of the subway station, and it has cabs in front of the door. Airport bus is only a reservation away at HKD150. (At HKD300, 2 people will probably like the cab ride to the airport better, and for 3 persons it is actually cheaper). The concierge is very helpful, and is only an internet screen away from any address, phone number.

They have one buffet or another going all day long, from 6AM to 10 PM. The dinner buffet at HKD600+ is particularly impressive, given that it has lobsters/sushi included in that. Wine list seemed very reasonable, and agreeable. The much hyped about café Too buffet at the Shangri-La is a particularly poor choice, and pricey at HKD400+. (On the other hand their Petrus restaurant is a nice French choice, but the wine list is a bit over priced).

Rooms are indeed a bit on the small size, but who cares (not as if you gonna roller skate around the King bed). The king bed sits nicely there in front of the panoramic window, with desk and TV on the side. There is enough marble in the bath to make it agreeable to most.

I mean the hotel can be had for under USD300/night, and at that price you are not going to get a helipad on top of the roof.

I had a chance to stay six nights at the JW Marriott on a business trip. I brought my wife along. It was very luxurious. The room was somewhat smaller, but apparently standard for a Hong Kong hotel. The view was nice and the location is very central with easy access to the MTR. My wife used their spa and enjoyed it very much. The most memorable thing for me was the breakfast buffet each morning at the Marriott Cafe. We opted to include it as a daily option when we booked. A bit more expensive, but it was worth it.

Having stayed at the JW marriot for 6 nights mid February 2008 I have to give it a glorious review. The rooms were spacious, with amaizng large glass window panels surrounding more than 1/2 the room. The beds were great nice and mid/firm and the bathrooms had ample room.

The hotel is VERY clean and made us feel Most comfortable and welcomed.

The Hotel has a great business lounge on the 33rd floor that if you can gain access to this concierge lounge the perks are fun and great. We enjoyed free breakfast, lunchs, snacks and dinners items and late night snacks when we were able to be at the hotel to enjoy these ammenities.

The hotel sits n a complex of 3 hotels and underneath sits an expansive mall worth going to.

If you get an oportunity to go to nicholines at the conrad hotel, this italina restaurant is quite good. The mushroom lasagna is OUT OF THIS WORLD.

The lower level supermarket of this mall is outstanding.

Grappa's Italian restaurant at this mall is OUTSTANDING- Go with the star items that are the restaurant specialities they are truly delicious.

Stanley market and Victori peak are a MUST. Skip the night market as Sanley has the same in a better environment and the scenic cab ride there are GREAT.

Arigatos Restaurant and bar arigatoshk.com is just the MOST FANTASTIC SUSHI and much much more greta for vegatarians with bean curd meats and chicken that were SPECTACULAR and if I didnt know any better would think they were real chicken and meat. The Salmon Sashimi was as soft as butter.

Enjoy this centrally located hotel.

I will be back to HK with the wife next time as this was a business trip.

ENJOY

Stayed at hotel after a couple of days at Hong Kong Disneyland as part of half term holiday. As a platinum marriott rewards card holder, upgraded to executive club room on 33 floor which was paid for with points. Rooms are on the small side, but otherwise very clean. Housekeeping is to a high standard. However, the rooms do not have the Marriott Revive mattresses, but use the Marriott bed linen. The beds were very hard and not a very comfortable sleep and it didn't get better after 5 nights.

Great location for getting to the MTR which is fast clean and very reasonably priced.

Swimming pool was tested by my son, who found it very plesant and very quiet.

Club lounge had great views, with several food presentations per day. In the evening they would often put on special drinks evenings. Afternoon tea was a particular treat each afternoon.

The staff were very pleasent and very helpful.

Pacific Place is a very high end shopping centre, Chanel, Gucci, Louis Vuitton with eye watering prices. Recommend the Thai Basil restaurant, excellent food and service. Avoid Zen's very expensive and poor food and service. Great take away salads from the Great Food Hall. If you have the time, do cross the border to Shenzhen. Very different feel to Hong Kong which needs to be experienced.
