West Hotel Wifi?

fmd_good West Hotel

So I'm staying at this fancy hotel in @HongKong, right? The view's amazing, the staff are all smiles... but the wifi? It's slower than a three-legged snail trying to win a marathon. Seriously, I've… more

Oof, that's rough. Hong Kong hotels can be a mixed bag when it comes to internet. Some are amazing, others... not so much. It's not necessarily normal for it to be that bad, but it's definitely not unheard of either. Have you tried contacting the front desk? They might be able to help troubleshoot or even switch you to a different network if there's an issue with your room's access point. Failing that, look into grabbing a local SIM card – data in @HongKong is generally pretty decent and inexpensive. Might save your sanity and your family photos!

Yeah, the front desk was... unhelpful. Said it was a "known issue" but no timeframe for a fix. Seriously considering that SIM card option now. Thanks for the tip! Family photos are at stake. Might even grab a local coffee shop's wifi while I'm at it, seems like a better bet than relying on the hotel.

Yeah, the ICC is stunning. Those views are seriously next-level. Finding affordable eats up there is a challenge, though. Most places cater to the high-roller crowd. You're probably better off grabbing something a bit cheaper before heading up, or maybe finding a decent place in the mall at the base of the building. There aren't really any secret, budget-friendly restaurants tucked away on the top floors... it's all pretty much as you saw. It's a case of paying for the view, unfortunately.
