I have a one night layover in HKG.

Which Hyatt is preferable?

HR TST would be your best option for one night. The gh is under renovations and you will get noise and the club has been relocated temporarily. I would only take the gh if I have business meetings there. The HR Sha Tin is way out of the way.

I'm going to be in HKG from a Thurs - Tuesday with kids where should I stay? Shangri-la is close to KZ but close to $300 a night.

HR TST c + p + dsu.

HR TST is a bit nicer, better value if you do dsu, more shabbat friendly for kids, (will push stroller to KZ) and closer.

They realized it by me, but didn't give any issues. Still got our suite and lounge access.

They may be a bit more lenient now with the new guest of honor policy.

I heard that one of the CX lounges in the airport has fresh made fruit shakes. Anyone know which one?
Also, are any of the breads made in the airport kosher?
Finally, can I expect a kosher meal on a 2 hour CX flight in J to Hanoi?

Shangri La - right next to Kowloon Chabad

If you are willing to take a elevator on Shabbat there are more options with points.
