The renovations look great and I genuinely hope folks will enjoy it. The one time I used the Lounge was to shower while transiting after a long flight from the states and going onto to Bangkok.
Overall, I found the bar and food area incredibly over-crowded, poorly maintained and not enough staff.
But after a reasonably wait time, the shower facilities were clean and well kept, which is all I needed.

It has been available for long for hkd 190 / 15 min I think, and you can use credit card lounge offer to pay for that which is awesome
My normal practice is book a 30 minute session with Citibank and Amex, go wing for food, then come back for massage.

Not sure if you can do the same with PriorityPass
(*** I edited the original post as the seated massage should cost HKD 190 as standalone service ***)

I had a visit recently in the morning time. See the real pictures yourself:
As a *G (and previously CX SL), I would say I am amazed about the offering of the lounge, especially given that UC and TG Lounge are operated by the same company (even TG Lounge personnel tell me to check it out).
My only disappointment is:
1. Lack of food choices - Fish balls over rice noodles is the only hot food offered. The taste was good, way better than SQ's wonton noodles. But if there are more than just the rice noodles it will be great.
2. Area reservation - a port of the area is reserved for flight crews only.

Does anyone know if the Plaza Premium Arrivals lounge is available for Priority Pass holders?
It's not listed as a participating lounge at PriorityPass.com, but the Plaza Premium East and West Hall lounges are. Odd.
