Known as Hotel Miramar when we stayed in July 08, the hotel was undergoing major renovations but they managed them well so we were not interupted. However, our room did not have a window! Not something I have ever felt I needed to request in a hotel room. The curtained wall opened to an opaque glass window with a lit up brick wall behind it! Made the room too gloomy & the bed was too hard as is the case in alot of Hong Kong hotels. However, those 2 things aside it was in a great position, nice & central and the staff were very pleasant.

We stayed at the Mira from Jan 3 to Jan 8 , 2009 and the entire family loved it! The accomodations is probably one of the BEST I have ever experienced.

The room we got had a 42" (or was it 50"?) plasma TV, a Bose iPOD dock, and a Sony Viao console that allowed you to surf the web and use the TV as your monitor. They also provide every room with a cellphone that you can use to call other family members staying in the hotel. This was great because each family member had different things they wanted to do but when it was time to eat, we could call each other (at no charge!) to see where everyone wanted to go.

The shower amenities allowed you to choose from a "rainfall", regular shower head, or a body massage-type heads. The bathrooms had windows with blinds so you could watch TV while taking a shower. The bathrobes were plush.

They also have a "Pillow Menu" so if you were not satisfied with the already uber-comfortable ones you have, you can select from about other kinds of pillows (I tried the Lavender scented one...).

When you walk out of the hotel and get on Nathan Road, you can turn right to get to Jordan Street (Temple Street Night Market) or turn left to get to the MTR station for a ride to the Ladies Night Market.

I give this hotel two thumbs up!

Arrived late at the hotel which was being renovated and when show to the room was blown away by the standard and the quality of the finish.

The whole atmosphere is very modern and very state of the art but is exceedingly comfortable and excellent value for food and beveridge.

it is in an ideal location and would certainly recommend it.

Great, great hotel.

Now called The Mira Hong Kong be sure to ask for a renovated room.

Ours was on the eighth floor and although there was no view to speak about the facilities inside the room were just amazing.

Great flat-screen TV/Computer monitor with free Internet access. The most comfortable hotel bed we've ever slept in and a bathroom to die for. Separate shower - dual system with a conventional shower-head and a ceiling panel that just threw water at you like you were standing in a rainstorm - although totally controllable!

Can't fault the Staff - they were welcoming, almost too-helpful (I can press the button to call the lift myself - but wasn't allowed to!!) and were able to check us in on-line with BA no problem.

The bar prices are quite steep as are those for the mini-bar, but a two-minute walk away is a 7-11 shop selling Australian wine for about £5.00 a bottle a bottled beer for 50p a pint.

When we go back to Hong Kong the Mira will be our first choice.

(They are renovating the rooms at present [autumn 2008] so be sure to ask for a renovated room when you book.)

This is my 2nd time staying in this hotel. The last time I stayed, I remembered the rooms to be rather dim, so it was a pleasant surprise to find the rooms nicely lighted.

The hotel is under going some renovations, so the hotel lobby has been shifted up to the 2nd level. There is plenty of staffs at the front office. However, the staff who attended to us was rather cool in her reception.

Rooms are spacious for Hong Kong standard. We stayed in the normal rooms, so there was no free internet access. It was advised that their business rooms & club floor rooms come with internet access. The bed is large, but a little soft for my liking.

Toilet is equipped with the basic amenities, but I was rather shocked to find they do not provide combs or shaver set.

There is a gym with pool which can only be accessed with the guest card.

Overall a pleasant experience. With the exception of the one cool staff, the rest of them were all very friendly.

We stayed at Hotel Miramar in Kowloon for 3 nights.

The hotel was having the lobby refurbished which made it a bit hard to find the entrance, but once we did we were greeted by friendly helpful staff. The staff were always courteous and helpful throughout our stay.

We booked the executive club which allowed us many privileges. (Executive club foodspread is always basic in HK compared to other countries).Our room was had 1980's decor, but it was perfectly clean and spacious.

The hotel was located centrally. The central shopping mall and the star ferry pier were within walking distance, as was the MTR which is essential in HK. It was easy for us to come back and drop shopping off and venture out again because of it's location. There were nearby night markets and Ashley Road closeby has some great bars and restaurants. Nearby Chung Kung Mall offers the best exchange rates.

We stayed at the Exelsior a couple of years ago - Miramar is definately better.

I am sure this hotel will have an amazing lobby next year, especially if the temporary one is anything to go by!

This is an ideal city hotel and I do not have any reservations recommending it.

We stayed at this hotel as a second choice as our first choice was under renovation and low and behold this hotel also is under renovation which was not pleasant - on arrival our booking was stuffed up and took a bit of fixing but the staff were very helpful. We had nice room but maybe old rooms as they seemed dated but we were together which was what we wanted. The staff were really nice and very helpful and nothing was too much trouble from the concierge to the cleaning crew. Despite the renovations we had a pleasant stay and it was very central to all the things we wanted and a 2 minute walk from the train station which was handy.

Our stay was ruined when we went to check out and I was slugged with an $45AU phone bill for using my calling card to call my kids from the room any where else this is the cost of a local call - they were very unhelpful and could not show me where it states that cost in the hotel rules and would not reduce the bill at all. I was furious by the time we left and I can say that ruined a nice stay at the hotel.

It is not fancy but clean and well located if that is what you are looking for.

Hotel Miramar, 118-130 Nathan Road, Kowloon. We stayed in a Club Floor Room which is on the 9th floor only. Inclusions were buffet breakfast, complimentary beverage after breakfast until 8-30pm, complimentary cocktail reception 6-8-30pm, unlimited b/band internet,

complimentary laundry, unlimited minibar, complimentary drink vouchers and 20% discount in hotels outlets. Room was as large as some of Melbourne's better hotels. Service, cleanliness and friendliness of all staff was excellent. Position was great as Tour East pickup was in next street (Kimberley). Walking distance to all attractions. I would recommend this hotel for its executive room and inclusions and would not hesitate to stay there again.

We recently visited Hong Kong and stayed at the Miramar. All I can say is "stay somewhere else". It was terrible. The rooms smelt of that musty/mouldy smell. They are in the throws of renovating so it may be better once the reno's are completed - it would want to be. I complained ferociously and told them that it was more a 2 star hotel than a 4 star and demanded to be shifted which I was after sitting in the foyer for 5 hours demanding to see management. They were going to upgrade me to a new room if I paid!!! In the end I got a newly refurbished room at a normal rate. Not worth the hassle as it was our first stop on our 6 week trip away.

Spent four nights at Mirramar Hotel and found it to be a excellent Hotel. The accommodation was very nice and the staff from front desk to room attendants were very friendly and helpful. We included breakfast with our booking and this was excellent value

as the buffet had a lot to choose from and once again the restaraunt staff were faultless. The location of the hotel is good being about 10 minute walk to star ferry wharf, and right in amongst thge shopping area. Tour I would recommend is the Peak Tram Tour, however the shopping tour to Shenzhen was a bit worrying as we were left alone for 4 hours at a shopping mall after being told by tour guide to be careful of pick pockets and other local hoodlums who would think nothing about robbing you. Anyway that was the only negative aspect as HONG KONG was great felt very safe and would highly recommend it and the Mirramar Hotel to any potential travellers. Hope to visit again soon.

We stayed at Miramar on May 23-27,2007. We were given a choice of either a room with no view or a room facing kimberly road but had to wait till 3pm. we opted for the latter.The room was spacious with 2 arm chairs & coffee table. The front desk was fast in service with just a few forms to fill up.They were friendly .They gave us a card to access a seperate lift to go to the gym/swimming pool which is heated. I got my room for $126. The bed is double which is a little cramp for 2 but manageable. Location is excellent with a lot of resto and shops that open early and closes late (11:30pm). Its so easy to get a taxi and airport express bus stops right in front of the hotel too. Overall , i would not hesitate to come back to miramar with my 2 kids aged 7 & 12.

Pros: Nice breakfast, okay location (on Nathan Rd), rooms are "okay".

Con: Customer Service was frightful- god help you if you have a problem on the weekend. The customer service manager (Cheng) took no responsibilty to fix a dreadful problem caused by the hotel. Obviously I have an axe to grind here, but suffice to say I was not pleased with the uncaring and unhelpful results of the "manager". Also, 1 outlet in the whole room, get into the 1980's folks! Oh, thanks for the broken iron, and for the A/C shutting off.

I think your GM needs to stop worrying about Chamber of Commerce issues, and get to work on the little things wrong with her hotel.

Next, year we are heading back to either the Holiday Inn or YMCA. you wowed our travel agent but ticked off the end-user.

I stayed at this hotel in early January 2007. The location is very good and rooms are ok for a 4 star, nothing really special but worth it for the price. We were very lucky we were upgraded to a suite. Personnel at the front desk are really helpful and very friendly.

We Stayed at the Miramar on a stop over to Mauritius and I had to drag my husband to Hong Kong screaming and kicking all the way I then had to drag him away, we loved it. This hotel was a fabulous base to see Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, we couldn't have chosen better for the price. The Lobby is beautiful and the restuarant clean. The breakfast would keeps us going for the day. Full English , continental through to my favourite dim-sum what a start.

The rooms were very clean with coffee/tea facilities. There is also a mini bar but as with all alchohol in Hong Kong its expensive. The staff were helpful and friendly.

The main shopping streets are located all around this hotel and the Star ferry a ten minute walk down the road, the bus stops and underground are just outside also. The back street restuarants that surround this hotel are too many to count, we found some amazing places and never spent more than £20gb per evening meal. While there we experienced the best ever excursion to Sha Tin the race track, we where picked up locally and escorted to the track, a private box with all tickets, food, drink and guide included, it was absolutly fantastic and well recommended. We also jumped onto some of the many ferries that took you to tiny islands, some with no traffic, what a pleasure. I cannot really say enough about this holiday how exciting, invigorating and amazing it truly was. Go for it.

We stayed at the Miramar for four days in September and found it to be very comfortable with easy access to transport

The room was spacious with all the required amenities and would certainly consider staying there again.My only critisim was that the front desk staff were not very freindly or helpful
