I was here last week. I'm platinum, they upgraded me to a club room on 30th floor. A letter in the room says they are remodeling floors 12-26 and to be prepared for very loud noise from 10-5 on weekdays, light noise on Saturday, no noise on Sunday. Even on 30th floor I did here some noise on the afternoon I was there.
The club lounge is terrific. Great view. From 5:30 pm they have a buffet with salad, breads, and hot appetizers. Breakfast was excellent.
Room was very nice, very comfortable bed. Location is good. Easy walk to Star Ferry and to Wan Chai MTR and Wan Chai bars.
I would stay here again and try to get a club room, but I would not stay here in the near future while remodeling is ongoing, if I were planning to be in the room between 10 am and 5 pm on weekdays.

Can anyone share Jake's contact information (preferrably e-mail) via PM? I have a stay at the GH HK coming up in May confirmed in a Grand Executive Harbor Suite via suite upgrade. I was hoping to get some advice from Jake based on the great reviews in this thread as it will be my first visit to Hong Kong.

I stayed there is April and had a really good stay.
The lounge is nice with good views of Kowloon. I liked the food and drinks but still preferred the Club Lounge at the IC across the harbour.
Staff were good and efficient. Nice upgrade to a one bedroom suite using my certificate, although I am not sure what type of suite it was. Had a partial harbour view. Quite large but dated bathroom.
Would stay there again.

Just finished a weeks stay here.
We had the hotel's car service pick us up from the airport and a new service (I think) is they meet you at your gate and drive you to customs/get your luggage/take you to the car. Really liked that!
We used a suite upgrade and had a suite on the 16th floor....would have liked the Club floor,but this is the ONLY thing I didn't like about our stay, so can't really complain :P
The three tubs of apricots, macaroons and pistacio nuts were in the room. And a big platter of fresh fruit which was replenished daily. Nice bottle of red, too
The work being carried out at the hotel had absolutely no impact on us.
The Club, as usual was wonderful thanks mainly to the absolute marvellous attention from Scott. Really, he is a credit to the hotel!
It was so hot during our stay and it was great to be greeted by the cool blast of air whenever we entered the hotel.
We dined at the downstairs restaurant one night. Think it was Cressinis??? Didn't enjoy that much. My noodles were overcooked/reheated. And tasteless.
But our experience at One Harbour Road restaurant was marvellous. One of our party is allergic to MSG and Benson (assistant manager) went above and beyond to make sure there would be no problems. He suggested dishes to try and they were wonderful.
All in all, another perfect stay here!

Staying at the hotel tonight. So far not terribly impressed. On his journey alone the following Hyatt properties have surpassed this hotel: PH Shanghai, PH Beijing, HR Hangzhou, GH Singapore.
Pros of GH HK
Location for site seeing, near HK station
Club is good (not as good as GH Sin)
Shower is high flow
Cons
AC never gets cold, sweat all night, operator seems unimpressed like this is normal
As a Diamond our view seems subpar and have been given base room
Outdated and tiny rooms, no outlets anywhere but desk

I've never had an AC problem at this hotel. And while the staff is possibly more accommodating in the club room at GH Singapore, I find the offerings much more impressive at GH HK.

Have you stayed at GH SIN recently? They have really upped their offerings since about a year ago. I find the spread to be much better than GH HK and the staff is a lot friendlier too. It's a matter of personal taste of course.

Only good thing about the hotel is being able to take breakfast in the cafe.
It's funny, I left Hilton because their program is awful but I've never seen such a disparity between the club and the regular breakfast as I see at nearly every Hyatt with a club. Most Hilton's in Asia let me eat anywhere I wanted, but not Hyatt.

I don't know how the staff could be any friendlier than they are at the GH Hong Kong, short of - well - never mind. But seriously, the compliments of the GH HK staff are legion in this thread, including mine.
