I have been to W several times. I think the location is good in the Kowloon train line ta few mins to Hong Kong
Breakfast Buffet at W very good. They are stingy with upgrades so dont expect anything.
Attached to a nice mall with many food options at the W or Ritz

The Ritz at least has the possibilities of views. Neither are ideal, as only HK Station/Central is within easy/quick reach.

I remembered thinking that it could be worth checking out the Ren for my next trip. I loved taking the Star Ferry back and forth to Kowloon. It was easy and fun to experience the harbor like a local! If the rate was cheaper and the Ren has a good club lounge, I’d be interested in trying it out. I generally like staying at Ren Hotels. Has anyone stayed st the Ren HKG?
The Ren isn't very convenient to the MTR, at least when compared to the JW which is somewhat similar in price and category.
