My Wife and I stayed here for 3 nights before flying onto Australia and may I say this is a great hotel. We got a Taxi from the train terminal to the Island Pacific which cost about $20hkd. We pulled up, our door was opened, we were welcomed and our bags taken straight to the room. Check in was a breeze. Our room was on the 20th floor and was a good size with a good sized bathroom. We ordered room service on the first night which was very good.

We looked for ages to find a good value hotel in HK and found this via the BA website. The hotel is a bit away from the action of HK Island but there are so many buses, trams and taxis that if you didn't fancy the 10 min walk to the metro there are plenty of options. We managed to get a room upgrade to a great room on the 29th floor. Overall would stay here again, clean hotel and pleasant staff.

This is an excellent hotel, with a gym and pool on the roof. The gym isn't as good as that at the JEN hotel over the road, however.
It is very high standard, with lots of glass and escalators, and usually quite expensive. Do look out for offers though, I found a very good price thru Expedia, which was a limited offer.
It is west of the centre, just a tram ride to LKF and the MTR rail system.
Verdict: only book if you can find a good price, else better value can be found elsewhere.

The location may not seem good to some travellers but if you are street-smart and have a good travel map of Hong Kong with you, it's actually fine. Island Pacific is actually within a 10-min walk from Sheung Wan MTR station. From the MTR station, you are only 2 minutes away from the central business district, Central, and about 8 minutes away from the shopping district, Causeway Bay. If you know how to take the tram, that's even better. The tram charges a flat rate of HKD2 (approx. a quarter) no matter of the distance you travel. There is a tram stop about 100 metres from the entrance of the hotel. While the tram is slower than the MRT, you will still get to Central in approximately 10 minutes and Causeway Bay in approximately 20 minutes, depending on the time of the day.

The conceirge staff are extremely helpful and courteous. The supervisor is especially helpful - I was waiting impatiently for my airport coach to come by where he quickly helped to call up the company and enquire about the status of the coach which was already 20 minutes late. Front desk staff are also professional and amiable. I was given a free upgrade promptly when they had some problems with my Asia Miles mileage accrual (supposed to be able to accrue mileage by staying at this hotel but due to some miscommunications, they were unable to do so).

The business centre is managed by a staff during operating hours and she was very helpful and approachable. There were two computers with high-speed internet connection available and printing charges are low compared to other hotels of the same category. Light snacks and drinks are provided at the business centre too.

Rooms are clean and well-maintained. While the size of the room is not large (but this is across the board in Hong Kong where land prices are ridiculously high), it is well-decorated and furnished. Basically, the rooms are cosy and chic-looking. Internet connection is also available in every room.

The lobby lounge is very cosy and is a good place to have casual business discussion with your partners. As the hotel does not cater to a lot of tour groups, you can be assured that you won't be affected by noisy tour groups while you are having your business discussion at the lobby lounge.

Overall, I would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Hong Kong, whether you are a businessman or a leisure tourist. This is a modern hotel suitable for one and all.
