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.

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!

The hotel has a lot of history, so the design and layout are more old-fashioned. The seating is spacious and clean. Food-wise, the selection of cold dishes and seafood is not much, but the number of cooked dishes is more than many hotel buffets. The staff service is also very good, as soon as they see that the drink is not full, they immediately refill it.

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