"The vibe is very upscale... the location in the touristy Tsim Sha Tsui neighborhood, near designer shopping and Victoria Harbour, is very convenient." Full review
Rough Guide "Possibly the grandest hotel in Hong Kong, the Peninsula has been putting visitors up in unrivalled style since the late 1920s."

Those doing business on the Hong Kong side or who prefer to avoid the onslaught of Kowloon shoppers may prefer the equally excellent but less grand Four Seasons and Mandarin Oriental on Hong Kong Island.

Concierge "The harbor views are, naturally, impressive here—you can even see the Shangri-La's sister hotel across the water in Kowloon."
Fodor's "A city icon towering above Pacific Place drips with old-world charm and offers spacious and luxurious accommodations with an Asian twist, along with fine dining and impeccable service." Full review

"Arguably the most luxurious hotel in Hong Kong, the 565-room Shangri-La features opulent details." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The soaring, 56-story Shangri-La has the city’s highest-altitude lodgings." Full review
Michelin Guide "A vast, intricate Chinese silk painting towers over the glamourous atrium and rises up all of 16 storeys; more sparkle is provided by the dazzling array of chandeliers placed around the hotel."
DK Eyewitness "One of the best hotel in Hong Kong, the Island Shangri-La is efficient, superbly staffed, and with some of the territory's largest rooms."
Star Service "Soaring above Victoria Harbour, this is one of Hong Kong Island's tallest hotels (measured from sea level), and it continues to rank high above the rest in many categories." Full review
Gayot "Amid Hong Kong's crush of skyscrapers, the Island Shangri-La seems almost lost among the lanky buildings shrouded in haze."
