There's a wide variety of seafood, and aside from the disappointing oysters, everything else was very fresh. The cooked dishes were quite good, and the prices were discounted, making it a great value.

Marco Polo Gateway Hotel's location is perfect for families who love the city view, complete mix of shopping, wide food selection, plus super near the MTR station. The rooms are big enough for a family of 3, with a very spacious bathroom.

You get water and souvenirs when you get on the bus. If you're not in a hurry, slowly experiencing Hong Kong Island is a good choice. The bus conditions aren't always certain, so don't schedule your subsequent itinerary too tightly. There are explanations on the bus, so you can learn about the local culture, and they'll even help you take photos. Remember to get your stamp before the bus departs, because it'll be too late to get it after you get off.

If it's your first time in Hong Kong, I highly recommend taking a ride, it has a very different atmosphere compared to a typical cruise, with a gentle breeze and a view of the entire Hong Kong night scene. If you want to choose your seats first, you need to board and disembark at the same location to be in the first group to select seats.

The buffet quality is as good as always, the food is diverse and generally delicious, and you can drink unlimited beer, red and white wine. Our family had a great time celebrating a birthday!

All-you-can-eat oysters are fresh, sweet, and delicious. White truffle crab meat salad 👍🏻 The soup of the day, carrot cream soup, is delicious. The French fish maw consommé is richer in flavor; I personally prefer the carrot soup. Chef's special pasta, the butter crab roe pasta, is tasty. The lobster and scallop barley rice is richer in flavor. Buy one get one free, very worth it 👍🏻 It just so happened to be almost Halloween, and the staff were all cosplaying, turning their costumes into uniforms 🤣

The view overlooking the Victoria Harbour was breathtaking! The twinkling lights of the buildings and sparkling waves were a sight to behold.
