Over ten years ago, I visited HK on a tour group and had a pretty good impression. This time, I came with a friend on a free-and-easy trip. My friend was worried about discrimination, but I confidently assured her it wouldn't happen, saying, 'It's been so many years since the handover, that's impossible.' Well, I ate my words on the very first day. When checking in, two women at the front desk gave me dirty looks and barked at me, all because I needed to change a name on the booking. The first woman snapped, 'Go change it over there, and then the hotel needs to confirm it.' They then kept making excuses to delay things. Both of them even exaggeratedly laughed in Cantonese right in front of me, which made me feel very uncomfortable. All the staff, from top to bottom, treated foreigners with utmost respect, and foreigners were even allowed to cut in line and be served first. The shuttle bus reserved the best seats at the front for foreigners, and no one else was allowed to sit there. They claimed the bus would depart on time, but a whole busload of people waited for a few late foreigners. The experience was terrible. This hotel definitely discriminates against us. Everyone, choose carefully.
