However, if what you mean is that the Four Seasons offered a "full size" toothpaste container, that would be something else. Though personally I would find that to be very wasteful.

I would be very surprised if the other hotels mentioned didn't also offer this. Shaving kits and toothbrush/toothpaste is fairly standard for hotels in many parts of Asia, and not just 5 star properties.

Kind of cool thing about the LMO. It's one of these relatively "cool" hotels. Not too cool (like a W) so that it's a pain in the neck, but very current. The business cards for their restaurants are all really creative. So yesterday, I come into my office and have the card for MO Bar on my desk. It's dark. Then I notice that it is glowing. Yes, they actually use glow-in-the-dark business cards. Cool, I thought!
Yes, it's sort of silly, but it sort of adequately describes the hotel. Really, really luxurious but still trendy and very up to date. If you're willing to live with the mediocre views, it's really an amazing place! But then again, in HK you really can't go wrong with the LMO, MO, Pen, and probably the FS.

For Frequent Luxury Hotel users, arguably the Best HKG Hotel is a Free Weekend night at The Intercontinental for Ambassador Club Members.
The $150 Joining fee exceeds the price of the room in HKG and you have status for the next 12 months.

IMHO One of the Best Hotel Values/Deals in The World.

My vote goes to InterContinental.
Rolls-Royce airport pick-up and check out the view!

We stayed at the top floor and this is by far the best cityscape

Well the IC free nite certificate has to accompany a paid night and the price of a room with a good view at the IC is pretty high.
As for the Rolls Royce, aren't you thinking of the Peninsula? They have the full Rolls fleet and airport transfers are free to Centurion members.

I love the toothbrushes from the FS in HK! I haven't been able to find them anywhere else but they're great!
FS has an amazing pool, great contemporary rooms and bathrooms, and better-than-expected standard of FS service. Room service food was great. have not used the car service but I understand it's either an S-Class or Bentley Arnage. The Pen is older but if you like room technology, it's the place to be. Service is good (though not as good as the FS I think). The indoor pool is nice, but tiny compared to the FS. The RR Phantom transfer is fun! Molton Brown amenities are great.
The Conrad is a solid hotel, though the rooms are dated and the service not quite as good as the Pen or FS. But it's good and consistent, has an the best location in HK in a natural setting across the road from a British government compound up in the hills. It's also conveniently connected to Pacific Place. Decent views of the harbor. Good value, if somewhat lacking in areas.
