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.
