The Krug Room
A champagne-filled culinary journey
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

The Krug Room really is a hidden gem. The progressive and playful restaurant inside the storied
Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong, on the edge of the bustling Central district, can’t be found by chance.
Guests with reservations (and these are a must, with wait times stretching longer than a month) are instructed to present themselves at the host stand of
Mandarin Grill + Bar.
A black-suited server — with whom you’ll get very comfortable, as he proves to be your only server for the duration of the three-hour experience — then shows you across the landing, through the warm-wooded Chinnery bar, past a swinging door with a porthole, into the kitchen hallway lined with pillar candles, and only then into the snug gilded space, with just enough room for 12 diners at a time.
