Luxurious Showdown: Shangri-La Kowloon vs Grand Hyatt Hong Kong

Both the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong and the Kowloon Shangri-La offer luxurious 5-star accommodation in Hong Kong. These 2 upmarket hotels offer the best places to stay in the city. Both offering specular views of Victoria Harbour from their harbour view rooms, some of best in the city. I give a quick review of each of these hotels and compare them to each other.
For room rates at these hotels, I checked directly with the Hyatt and Shangri-la as well as 3rd party booking sites like TripAdvisor, Expedia and Agoda.
In all both of these 5-star hotels in Hong Kong are excellent stays. But for me the Grand Hyatt is slightly better.

This is quite informative. I've been thinking of staying at hyatt next month, and this helped me a lot.

No worries hope you have a great stay.

very nice hotels. That is actually a suprisingly good price (I looked up the HK dollar to USD conversion rate and that would be less then $300 a night). I expected it to be more money because I heard HK is one of the most expensive places in the world. Overall hotel prices have stayed flat in many areas. I stayed in a basic business hotel near me recently and it was around $150, but what I noticed is these hotel chains, when they build a new hotel they have got very good at making everything 'look' like it is quality, but in reality it is just a veneer (its cheap plastic fixtures/dry wall designed to look like expensive wood/metal and solid concrete infrastructure).

I filmed this in December so rates were still really good. The Hyatt was having a promo if you stayed 3 nights you get 25% discount.

Hi , thinking of either for 2024, will be 3 adults, Question, in the rooms the bathroom is there a shutter you can put down, just wondering because of the daughter that will be with us thanks, also is it easy to get the ferry from the Hyatt

[@FindingParadise]

Yes in that room type there is a shutter for the bathroom. If you mean the ferry to cross the harbour over to Kowloon it's probably around 15 min or so walk from the hotel.

Some hotels have bible in the room, in HK they have binocs to perv on the north maybe 😁
