Rambler Crest
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rambler Crest (藍澄灣) is a housing development on Tsing Yi Island, Hong Kong, which included a private housing estate, shopping mall and 3 hotels. It was developed by Hutchison Whampoa Limited.
The site was originally planned for hotel use only, rather than residential use because of its proximity to Container Terminal 9 already owned by Hutchison.
However, the development turned out to be a slab block of 3 hotels at the front and 5 additional residential blocks at the back. The residential complex consists of 8oo units of 2 or 3 bedroom flats with Gross Floor Areas from approx. 680 - 950 square feet (translating into net useable floor area of between 540 and 760 square feet.
The estate has a small shopping centre at the ground floor, and includes clubhouse facilities.
There are three hotels, namely:
- Mexan Harbour Hotel (owned by Mexan Shanghai but managed by Harbour Plaza Hotel Group, a subsidiary of Hutchison)
- Rambler Garden Hotel
- Rambler Oasis Hotel (owned and managed by Harbour Plaza).
