I have just returned from a 3 week working stay at the Royal Garden. I found it to be an excellent hotel with good service throughout.
I had the Crown Club update which gives free breakfast in your room, free use of the pool/gym/sauna as well as free drinks and nibbles in the crown club between 5.30 and 8.30.

I had a room on the 16th floor with a decent view of the harbour.

Watch out for the prices in the Martini bar, but room service is decent value. All in all a confortable and clean hotel in a good location. I'd be happy to stay there again.

The Royal Garden is a wonderful place to stay. We had booked a standard room through Expedia (very cheap) but were allocated a superior room. The room was gigantic, as was the bed - I've stayed in rooms elsewhere which was smaller than the bed! Every facility you would expect plus more (newspaper, tea & coffee making, etc). The pool and other leisure facilities are out-standing. Staff very helpful. Restaurants looked good and were busy but we did not use them mainly because there was so much elsewhere to choose from (my favourite was Red Pepper on HK Island). From the room service menu, I would be surprised if they were more expensive than the going rate for good restaurants.

The hotel sometimes feels slightly away from the main centres but on reflection this was good because it was quieter (though surrounded by restaurants, coffee shops, bars, etc.) and the walk along the front was great.

A few tips: from the airport use the train to Kowloon and then the K4 courtesy bus (included in the train ticket) to the Regal Kowloon Hotel stop (next door to the Royal Garden). Buy an Octopus card at the airport (HK$50 plus what you put on it - I suggest HK$300 to cover the Airport Express, you can get a refund less HK$7 at the end and you can 'overdraw by HK$35). The subway from the Tsim Sha Tsui station goes with travellators to close to the hotel (exit P). Temple Street and the Ladies Market are tacky - go to Stanley Market instead and benefit from wonderful views on the way.

We stayed in a tripple rom on the seventh floor, very good room,excellent service.The hotel has an aura of evergreen elegance and grace, the staff was most helpful, the room service and housekeeping was super.The hotel is located close to everything that a tourist would like to see in HK, transport is virtually at door, the free bus from the Airport express station stops right next door. We can sincerely recommend this hotel to those who like clean, upmarket hotels that don't destroy the bank account.

I think the hotel is well located for its money. It is not new, but maintained in a good condition. Walking distance from the bay. Many restaurants within and around.
