After an excellent flight of almost 10 hours on Turkish Airlines from Istanbul<\/a>, we arrived in Hong Kong and our feedback on the Marriott Hong Kong Skycity hotel<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marriott Hong Kong Skycity Hotel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Booking with Marriott Bonvoy points<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To book this hotel, I used 10,000 starpoints from my Marriott Bonvoy account which I transferred into 30,000 Marriott Bonvoy points<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The price per night was almost $300 per night, so it was a good deal to use points here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"hkg<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the Marriott app, I was able to check in with the hotel from the Istanbul airport. I saw then that our rooms had been upgraded to Marriott Gold status (status earned through equivalence of SPG Gold status, itself earned as a benefit of the American Express Platinum card<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marriott Hong Kong Skycity Hotel Shuttle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To get to the hotel from the airport, you will need to follow the signs for the hotel shuttles. However, beware: the Marriott’s starts at door 29.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marriott Hong Kong Skycity check-in and lobby<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One line is dedicated to Marriott Bonvoy<\/a> Gold and Platinum members. Another line is also reserved for people who have registered on mobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"marriott<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In less than 2 minutes, we had our keys and a sheet summarizing the advantages granted by the hotel to Gold and Platinum members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rooms of the Marriott Hong Kong Skycity hotel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We had requested 2 rooms: one with a king bed + baby bed, the other with 2 double beds. These were different from each other although they were connected by a communicating door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Review:<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The room with king bed<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The one with the king bed was ours with our baby (the baby bed had already been placed in the room, which is greatly appreciated after such a long trip!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"marriott<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Access to the lounge is restricted to Marriott Bonvoy Gold and Platinum members. Again, this is a great benefit for American Express Platinum cardholders<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you are a Gold or Platinum member, I advise you to choose the buffet served in the hotel’s restaurant at the lobby level<\/strong>, which is much more complete as you will see below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The swimming pool and the sports hall<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A beautiful indoor pool allowed us to relax from our flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"marriott<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Each men’s and women’s locker room has showers as well as a sauna and whirlpool. A beautiful sports hall is also present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact that it is free for Gold and Platinum members is a significant saving<\/strong>. Here is the bill (which will be cleared at check-out): CA$110 for 3 adults, or a little over $35 per person<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to get Marriott Bonvoy Gold status<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Marriott Bonvoy Gold status is awarded to those who have spent at least 50 nights in the year at Marriott hotels. But there is a way to get this status much easier!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, the American Express Platinum Card<\/a> offers Marriott Bonvoy Gold status as part of its benefits package<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to get Marriott Bonvoy starpoints<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Canada, the easiest way to earn Marriott Bonvoy points is through one of the two American Express Marriott Bonvoy credit cards<\/a>. The version for individuals<\/a>:And the enterprise version<\/a> (also available to individuals):<\/p>\n\n\n
