Disney Hotels in Hong Kong

When we have to choose a hotel in Disneyland Hong Kong, it has got to be the Disneyland hotel. Not the other ones because this one, you get to meet characters, princesses, and there are lots of fun activities to play!

Overall we had a good time. Unfortunately there were no surprises (ie. unexpected fun or magical moments, services), but we did have a decent time. Hotel staffs never greeted us so it was bit unexpected in that front, because they will only respond when we greet them, so we did feel bit isolated. Positives: Pools are open for long time, breakfast buffet quality is so good (but way too pricy, considering kids does not eat much), room is spacious, shuttle bus frequency is very convenient, hotel is really creatively constructed (both external/internally). Areas of developments: Could be better if Staffs could greet guests (even the front desk staffs were unfriendly), Breakfast buffet’s cost performance needs to improve -＞ considering the super high price it should not limit the breakfast time to only one hour as guest loses time to greet character as well, also on top of high price it charges 10% service tax, and character photo costs H$168 per photo when the photo quality was bit blurry…., it would be great if breakfast buffet price could lower (especially for kids who does not eat much) or stretch the 1 hour limit to 90 min. Another area of development could be, the scope of hotel merchandise coupon… -＞ seems like there is unexplainable scope of which product they can allow/disallow $10 off coupon. We wanted to buy two products of which one of them the staff explained we cannot apply the coupon, and the staff’s explanation was “because this is popular”… when I asked how would we even know which is popular and which is not, and the next explanation was “oh it is because Lina Bell is popular”. It was very awkward explanation and scope, but I suppose it was Explorer’s Lodge Hotel style… Overall, we enjoyed HK Disney land so we will definitely come back, but unless above AOD are changed/improved, we will not consider staying with Explorer’s Lodge.

We stayed in the Disney Hollywood Hotel for a night, during our trip to Hong Kong, once we were done with our day-long visit to the Disneyland Resort. My regret is we could not stay longer. While the check-in took some time, we loved the decor of the hotel. Around every corner, there was a surprise with some recollection of a Disney character. The rooms were extremely clean, comfortable and had a classy feel. Everything from the bathroom linen to the complimentary slippers had the feeling of being in a fairyland. The next morning, our buffet breakfast was even better as we were joined by some of Disney's most loved characters. For me, for a while, I felt as if I was reliving my childhood. It was a lovely experience and I would love to return, possibly with my kids!
