Because of a highway that runs alongside the harbor, request a room on a high floor.
Lonely Planet "This large five-star palace is one of the nicest top-range hotels in Tsim Sha Tsui East and offers excellent discounts, depending on the season and the day of the week."
Oyster Upscale
"Location is a big draw at the InterContinental, as it is within walking distance of museums and major sights." Full review
Michelin Guide "Its bedrooms have recently benefitted from a comprehensive renovation programme which left them looking uncluttered and more contemporary in style."

Be sure to ask for a room with harbour views.
