Stayed at JW this past Chinese New Year. This is indeed one of the luxury properties in its market, though not necessarily world renown.
I was able to obtain this property through PriceLine, and I probably got it 30% off as a result of that. On top of that, they kinda liked me, so they upgraded me to sea view for free.
The hotel is really nice, and the people are sweet indeed. Property sits on top of the subway station, and it has cabs in front of the door. Airport bus is only a reservation away at HKD150. (At HKD300, 2 people will probably like the cab ride to the airport better, and for 3 persons it is actually cheaper). The concierge is very helpful, and is only an internet screen away from any address, phone number.
They have one buffet or another going all day long, from 6AM to 10 PM. The dinner buffet at HKD600+ is particularly impressive, given that it has lobsters/sushi included in that. Wine list seemed very reasonable, and agreeable. The much hyped about café Too buffet at the Shangri-La is a particularly poor choice, and pricey at HKD400+. (On the other hand their Petrus restaurant is a nice French choice, but the wine list is a bit over priced).
Rooms are indeed a bit on the small size, but who cares (not as if you gonna roller skate around the King bed). The king bed sits nicely there in front of the panoramic window, with desk and TV on the side. There is enough marble in the bath to make it agreeable to most.
I mean the hotel can be had for under USD300/night, and at that price you are not going to get a helipad on top of the roof.
