It is very convenient to redeem the buffet with QR code. The restaurant environment and hygiene are good, the staff are also very polite, there are many types of food choices, and the cost performance is high. It is worth recommending. :)

It is very convenient to buy coupons on Klook. You can use them immediately after purchase. You can buy cakes, bread and pastries. It is great. Price: Buying 2 coupons is equivalent to 14% off, which is better than other offers of Maxim's.

Great option for budget accommodation. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Location is great, near shops, train stations, bus stations, restaurants and street foods. Room is clean and everything works well.

The building is quite new, and the interior layout is grand and well designed. There are not many cultural relics in the collection, and it only takes about 2-3 hours to visit them. Although there are walking signs all the way out of the MTR Kowloon Station, I still took a long detour and spent 20 minutes to get to the back door. The most convenient way is to take the minibus at the main entrance, which can directly reach the MTR and the main entrance of the Palace Museum.
