Frommer's "A popular choice for business travelers, the majority of whom are American... Sterling service... which is probably one reason why repeat guests make up more than 55% of hotel occupancy." Full review
Fodor's "You might feel like a '70s tycoon amid murals, fountains, and crystal chandeliers in the lobby, and the feeling extends to the spacious rooms decorated in warm colors."
Oyster Luxury
"This luxury hotel lives up to the Shangri-La brand's stellar reputation, but there are a few small details that prevent it from being a true five-pearl property." Full review
Michelin Guide "The first thing to strike you will be the size and grandeur of the lobby, with its marble, sparkling chandeliers and tiered water fountain."
Star Service "This hotel boasts a Hong Kong harbor-front location and views similar to those of the InterContinental Hong Kong, but at a lower price." Full review
Forbes Travel Guide 4 Stars
"It’s all about location, location, location for the Kowloon Shangri-La. The hotel sits smack-dab on top of the East Tsim Sha Tsui subway station and next to Victoria Harbour." Full review
Lonely Planet "The views, the bars and restaurants here, including Tapas Bar, are excellent." Full review
Travel + Leisure "-room hotel on Kowloon's Tsim Sha Tsui East waterfront, with floor-to-ceiling bay windows in every room." Full review
Jetsetter "The Shangri-La Kowloon has a well-balanced blend of old — the glam lobby’s Viennese crystal chandeliers and Italian marble floors, the unstuffy service — and new: The hotel’s 688 spacious rooms are all stylishly teched out." Full review
Gayot "An elegant hotel with a central location overlooking Victoria Harbour."

OysterUpscale
"This 857-room behemoth is a favorite among business travelers, thanks to its location next to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre." Full review
Rough Guide "Splendid views and the same expense-account clientele as the adjacent Grand Hyatt – whose facilities you get to use – though generally lower rates. $2550."
Star Service "This hotel offers a great value and costs a fraction of the price of the adjacent Grand Hyatt, yet the two share the same central location, spectacular waterfront views and even the lagoon-style pool." Full review
Lonely Planet "This spectacular hotel with a cavernous marble lobby adjoins the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre."
