Staycation away from the hustle and bustle of the city - Hyatt Regency Shatin

Address－18 Chak Cheung Street, Ma Liu Shui Environment/Facilities - Children's recreational facilities, indoor swimming pool, fitness room Features - Executive floor room, breakfast, evening cocktails and all-day VIP lounge access Price per person: $1,200 Rating – 4.7/5 After staying at Hyatt Centric in North Point, Grand Hyatt in Wan Chai, and Hyatt Regency in Tsim Sha Tsui, we finally arrived at the last and farthest Hyatt Hotel in Hong Kong - Hyatt Regency in Shatin. The hotel started its trial operation on February 11, 2009. It is located close to the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Hong Kong Science Park. It is the first international brand hotel in the New Territories and is also part of the Chinese University of Hong Kong teaching hotel. For transportation, you can take the East Rail Line to University Station, then walk through Exit B for about 5 minutes to arrive. The original room I booked for this stay was a deluxe room on the executive floor (about $1,200). The check-in time was about 1:00 p.m. on Sunday. I was very lucky to be upgraded to a river view suite and arranged to stay on the same floor as the VIP lounge on 25/F. As Hong Kong has been raining for many days in June, I had given up the idea of ​​swimming in the swimming pool, but fortunately the weather was good. I checked the opening hours of the swimming pool when I checked in, which were 1200-1430 and 1500-1730. I immediately went to the room to change clothes and walked in to the swimming pool, and I could still swim until 1430☺️ After washing up, take a short rest in the suite and then go to the VIP lounge next door to enjoy an evening cocktail. The food provided includes three or four types of bread, smoked salmon and a type of frozen meat, various salads and two seasoned salads, wide noodles with meat sauce and grilled vegetables, etc., which can definitely satisfy the average person's dinner appetite. In addition, drinks also provide a variety of canned sodas, bottled beers, various red and white spirits, juices and coffee, etc. Due to the two time periods of 1700-1830 and 1845-2015, the VIP room was about 30-40% full, the food was replenished quickly, there was no food grabbing or empty plates, after eating and drinking (mushroom soup and avocado jam are highly recommended!), we went for a walk on the Tolo Harbour bike path. Since it is a suite, in addition to a bathtub, there is also a guest toilet in the room, so there is no need to worry about using the toilet at the same time 👍🏻 Breakfast is also served in the VIP lounge. The menu offers a variety of egg dishes and a porridge dish, which can be refilled unlimitedly. The self-service area also offers a variety of breads, toasts, air-dried ham, etc. (croissants are highly recommended!) Advantages: far from downtown, cost-effective, VIP lounge service, comfortable outdoor swimming pool, very smooth and stable wifi Cons: TV does not provide Netflix/YouTube, elevator room card sensor is poor #Cost-effective hotel #Local travel
