History
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 40-storey residential blocks at the back. The residential complex consists of 800 units of 2 or 3 bedroom flats with Gross Floor Areas from approx. 680 - 950 square feet (63 - 88 square meter) (translating into net usable floor area of between 540 and 760 square feet (50 and 71 square meter)).
Hotel and shopping centre
The estate has a small shopping centre at the ground floor, and includes clubhouse facilities.
There are three hotels, namely:
- Rambler Garden Hotel (Owned and managed by Harbour Plaza).
- Rambler Oasis Hotel (Owned and managed by Harbour Plaza).
- Winland 800 Hotel (Former Mexan Harbour Hotel)
Transport
There are two Maxicab lines in the estate:
- 88F to Tsing Yi MTR Station
- 88G to Kwai Fong MTR Station
The nearest bus-stop is above the hill, at Tsing Yi Road, outside Cheung Ching Estate which is well served by a number of Kowloon Motor Bus service routes. A32 of Long Win Bus is a direct bus service linking Rambler Crest to the international airport.
