International Hotel WiFi: Langham Place Hong Kong Seems Okay

Where: 555 Shanghai Street, 555 Shanghai Street, Hong Kong

Back when the Langham Place Hotel in Hong Kong had just opened back in 2004 we were excited to hear them talk about "omnipresent Wi-Fi" but a little skeptical about whether or not it would live up to the hype. So we thought we'd better check back in on what guests are saying now that the dust has settled.

For starters, TripAdvisor ratings now have it as the #1 hotel in Hong Kong. This is, surely, a good start. But as is so often the case, few guests seem to be as obsessed with WiFi access as we are. One was happy about the internet enabled computers provided free for guest use, but otherwise guest comments don't mention internet access at all.

The website assures us that since November 2007 (at least), all their rooms have had wireless broadband available at no extra cost; most rooms offer wired access too, if you want to plug in instead. And it's definitely all free.
