Looking forward to my stay in July in a renovated suite.
Interested in the noise from ongoing refurb work. What's it like? Loud or bearable.

BRG on standard room. DSU applied and confirmed with hotel for renovated suite. Surplus of $50 a day which I don't mind, particularly bearing in mind rate I got was close to 50% off elite rate. Chuffed...

I also don't think you'd have much luck getting a rollaway bed in any of the harbour view rooms I've had recently.

I had a daybed-type piece in one of my rooms. It was in the corner suite above the convention center. But it probably went out in the renovation.

Just spent 3 days here.
TR for my whole trip to follow once I get back. (Another 25 days)
Thoughts on GH Hong Kong.
Impressive place, very very good and friendly customer service.
The suite.
We had a newly renovated suite. Fabulous. Many have commented on how hyatt make the minimalistic so luxurious. This suite is very much that principle. Amazingly good quality fittings and very comfy bed. Design a big factor and one feels at home very quickly.
The view is amazing. Nothing else to it. 180 degree views of the harbour yes please. I love the sunken tub which is huge and with a direct view through the bedroom to the harbour. Great place to drink champagne and observe the skyline.
The blinds in the room are very clever and also have a black out feature. I really like the fact that the toilet is separate to the bathroom. A good feature.
The club has a reputation for being sound, wow is all I can say. Everything is of superior quality. The breakfast is top. The staff are super friendly and seem to go out of their way to know guests and make a difference.
Secondly the evening cocktail period is great. Good food and very tasty. Spirits are all premium, wines are very good and the best thing is the champagne is a proper French champagne, ruinart and is delicious. I really like that they don't scrimp and save on stuff and offer a premium service.
The pool is great and large. Shared with the renaissance which is fine and not really full.
My favourite place in Hong Kong is Stanley. Relaxing and a great market and even better food.
All in all this is a great hotel. Pricey but as a diamond and with a DSU you can really have a good time for ok money. More to follow....

Hi All,
I just checked out this morning after 2 nights in a grand suite (pre renovation) on the 31st floor. I must say this lounge is my favorite lounge of any hotel, even better than the Waldorf in Rome. We loved the service and the smoked salman and ruinart champagne are just sublime. For those that don't know Champange, Ruinart is a level above Moet or Tattinger.
I would definitely recommend anyone to stay in a club level room if staying at this hotel.
Cheers,
Timo

I asked about the DSU and was told none of the Grand Harbour View Suites were renovated, and none would be by the end of the year.
As per other posts I paid the small amount to upgrade to a newly renovated suite.

Grand Hyatt vs Sha Tin Suite Upgrade (Platinum )
Looking for some thoughts - I will be staying at the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong for one night in september and then moving to the Hyatt Sha Tin for two nights. I am currently a platinum member and have 4 suite upgrades that i need to use between now and February. Two questions - what are my odds of being automatically upgraded at the either of these hotels, specifically Grand Hyatt? Would it be worth it to use a suite upgrade on my grand hyatt stay or sha tin stay?

Unlikely. GH has so many room types.
The DSU is an issue to as the hotel goes through refurbishment. If you use a DSU you will likely be required to pay a premium for a new suite (well worth it) or you get the old one.
My view is it is worth it.
GH is a great property. Can't comment on the other but a different experience.
