I had been looking forward to my next Conrad stay since I visited the Conrad Centennial Singapore last year. On Thursday of last week, I arrived at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) from Seoul (ICN) and with great delight directed the taxi to take me to Conrad Hong Kong.
After a quick, 20-minute cab ride, we climbed a small hill and pulled into the grand circular entrance of Conrad Hong Kong. The lobby lounge was quite large with floor-to-ceiling windows and views of Hong Kong and across the harbor to Kowloon. The dining area is the perfect spot for lunch, tea or a cocktail with clients, though at that moment, I was most eager to get to my guestroom. The reception desk is off to the right from the entrance and was quite busy when I arrived. Though there was a bit of a wait, I appreciated that the Conrad attendant recognized I had been waiting longer than another guest and called me ahead.
My room on the 25th floor was exactly as I expected. There was a plush comfortable bed, chair and a large desk space with easily accessible international plugs as well as a large bathroom with separate shower and bathtub and all of the bath products I should need during my stay. It is this consistent quality that has made me a fan of the Conrad brand since my last stay.
However, this time, it was not the guestroom or the lovely spread in the club lounge that was the highlight of my stay; it was the location. As this was only my third visit to Hong Kong, I am still an amateur when it comes to navigating the city. What Conrad offers its guests is access to a luxury mall called Pacific Palace via the elevator to the third floor. Through this mall, there is direct access to the MTR Admiralty Station. This is just one stop to Central Station, offering access to Kowloon and beyond, and two stops from Sheung Wan, which connects you by ferry to Macau.
What an excellent home base for the business traveler! From the Conrad, I easily made my way to all of my business meetings and did a bit of sightseeing in my downtime. It was a delightful stay, and I highly recommend it for the business traveler.
