Must visit family-friendly hotel! Grand Hyatt in Wan Chai with zero negative reviews! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Last week, after introducing some great spots along the Wan Chai waterfront, of course we had to have a staycation in Wan Chai! After playing with electric cars and water bikes, we checked into the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong for a three-day, two-night staycation. We stayed in a sea-view suite last year, and the unforgettable experience of indulging in seven meals over 30 hours made us decide to stay there again 😌
This time, we chose to stay at the Grand Hyatt by taking the MTR to the Convention and Exhibition Centre station, which felt similar in distance to walking from the Wan Chai MTR station or pier. We booked a night in a guest room and a night in a deluxe sea-view room with a package deal that included a dinner for two at Cafe ONE, a breakfast buffet, and a Tiffin afternoon tea set to go, all for a total of $1,800 (thanks to a $800 discount from Trip Coins) + $2,800. I personally think the latter deal was really worth it!
The guest room check-in was on the 30th floor, where we stayed on a floor above that included lounge access for afternoon tea, cocktails 🥂 at sunset, and breakfast the next day. I found the food quality and service of the Grand Club to be high during my last visit, and although the service remained consistent this time, the food quality was not as good due to more people coming on weekdays 🤷🏻♀️ The dumplings in the breakfast noodles tasted like soup base from instant noodles, and the desserts weren't as good as before 🥹 Nevertheless, with a child in tow, the guest room was still convenient! After check-in, we went straight to the lounge for afternoon tea, then went swimming, had a cocktail at sunset (for dinner), and finally played at the amusement park, ate ice cream 🍦, and played in the bathtub🛁. It was definitely a fulfilling stay!
As a family-friendly hotel, children receive gifts 🎁 upon check-in, including masks and ice cream coupons 🍦. They can go to Grand Cafe to redeem their ice cream, and the vanilla flavor is really delicious! The hotel pool is open in time slots, with Friday to Sunday and public holidays requiring reservation in the morning of the same day, while walk-ins are welcome on weekdays. Since the Marriott has now become a quarantine hotel, the utilization rate of the swimming pool and playground facilities is not too high. However, note that the amusement park is also open in time slots, and reservations need to be made at the concierge. Everyone must plan their time carefully to make full use of all the facilities. We have previously introduced the swimming pool and amusement park on the 11th floor, which has multiple slides 🛁 and recreational facilities suitable for children of different ages, and a large swimming pool 💦 with a constant temperature wading pool. Shawn and his brother had a great time😃 There is also an indoor playroom on the VIP floor. Even if it rains, there is a TV, cooking set and tent. Although small, it has everything you need👍🏻
Whether it's a sea-view or garden-view room, a free extra bed is available for children, and each room has an open bathtub...
