The hotel is a waterfront legend of the city, with famous dim sum and heritage-grade service. Guests praise the indoor-waterfall garden, the quiet waterfront and the food. The honest catch: it's one of the city's older hotels (though it's had a major renovation), so some corners feel classic, accessible rooms are limited and worth booking early, and there's a small bridge onto the island from the metro, so check the route · details compiled from real reviews and hotel policy on Trip.com / Booking.
