Was initially allocated a room at Tower 1 but the room is very dim, was told all the rooms are similar at Tower 1. Thankfully I got a switch to Tower 2 where the room is much brighter. The front desk staff after 9pm needs to improve on their customer service. Came back a couple of times after a long day out and requested for replenishment of drinks, toiletries (was given only 2 sets for a family of 4) but he asked me to call the housekeeping via the room phone instead just assisting with my request. Location wise is great if you are going to Disneyland and Ocean Park, the hotel is connected to small malls and has a mini bus interchange in front of the hotel which offers bus rides to the airport too.

The kids (under 10, above 5) had a great time as it was back to basics — cycling, running and exploring. We did also try the airplane simulation experience (additional $80 charge payable) which they enjoyed. Relaxing day for all.

We booked Dirty Hands bracket making for our anniversary. Had a great time and we felt it was the pefect couples activity. We enjoyed the bracelet exchange and even more the process of making our gifts for each other. Thank you Mabel for guiding us throughout.

transport access: there's a free shuttle that will take you to metroplaza where kwai fong station is near. But if you missed the shuttle at night, the station nearest is the Tai Wo Hau which is a 10 minute walk to hotel. cleanliness: Everyday housekeeping

the hotel room is huge! There is a free shuttle going to Tsuen Wan MTR station. make sure to line up since it’s first come first serve and it runa every 30 minutes. the shuttle can only carry 24 persons so make sure to be in the line especially if your group is large. will book again when I go back to HK!
