RC HK / Tokyo / Kyoto. Highly regarded in their respective cities
Yes, those seem to always be mentioned.
I’ve previously toured both the Hong Kong and Shanghai properties and think both are excellent—though the more masculine decor at Hong Kong is my preference.
I will be staying at the RC Kyoto from May 16-18 and will see that for myself, too. I also may get the chance to visit the RC Tokyo while staying at the SPG LuxColl Prince Gallery Kioicho Tokyo property for May 8-11.
