Clubmans Join Fleet of Rolls Royce Phantoms

I stayed at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong on my wedding last month. It's an incredible experience. I found it pretty cool that they just added two MINIs to their company cars, considering the kind of cars they are joining!

On 11 December 2009, the Peninsula Hong Kong celebrated its 81st anniversary with the addition of two new MINI Cooper S Clubman vehicles to the hotels existing feet of 14 Rolls Royce Extended Wheelbase Phantoms and one 1934 Rolls-Royce Phantom II. The big idea of going small not only enhances the guest experience, but also reflects the legendary Grand Dame's youthful spirit as she enters her ninth decade.

Offered as a complimentary amenity to suite guests, the high performance head turners will be a treat for those looking for some motoring thrills as they are whisked away for a fun shopping spree.

It's hard to tell! My wife and I are going to be in Hong Kong for Chinese New Year and we ALMOST booked a suite just so we could play with the Clubman, and then I realized that a trip to the dealer would be a lot cheaper than staying in a Peninsula suite, lol. Our non suite but still very nice.. was like $500/night, lol and we stayed two nights on our wedding night.

No, Brewster Peninsula Green. I guess you could call it BPG.
