I am not able to find the entrance on Google Map Street View, do you have an idea where exactly is the car park opening is?
Parked at 8 Observatory Rd. and wanted to give an update to the details of the map.

Also i found the turns to the lower levels a bit narrow. It's doable but you need to take caution. The spaces themselves are quite wide, but for a few spaces it can be tricky to park as the concrete columns can make maneuvering difficult
all spaces have 13A and there are 3 32A(?) chargers are being installed on lowest level B3 but not yet operational
for the 13A chargers you need to plug the car in then go to the panel next to the lift lobby to activate (it took me a few minutes to figure out as there are no instructions next to the outlet.)
updated with thanks, however, your photos no longer exist
New chargers at Hong Kong Country Club. This is a members' and their guests only car park. Four Tesla installed medium speed chargers started trial operations on 20 July 2016. Limited to free charging for two hours after which you are asked to move away to make available the spot for others.

Regal Riverside Hotel - Destination Charging
Below are my recent email exchanges with the hotel:

Dear Sir,
HNY 2017.
I visited your AVANTI PIZZERIA on 18 Jan 2017 in the evening around 18:00pm. Same as before, I parked my Tesla in your basement carpark. Regrettably, all the Tesla charging slots were occupied by petrol cars while there were plenty of empty parking spaces in your car park. I fully understand that car park spaces could be sought after in the peak hours. However, for situation similar to that evening when there were many empty parking spaces, could you consider reserving one or two charging slots for the electric vehicle?
Fortunately, my Tesla did not need immediate charging in that evening and I simply parked my car in other empty spaces.
Regards,

Dear Sir
Thank you for your email and your great support to Regal Riverside Hotel is truly appreciated. Your constructive comments are duly noted, since our car parking is a self-service basis, we shall ask for better cooperation from the non-electric car owners to respect the users of Tesla stalls.
Wishing you a prosperous Year of the Rooster and we look forward to serving you again soon.
Best regards

Clearly, the reply from the hotel management is no better than our beloved Transport Department about ICE occupation of charging slots in government public car parks.

For parking at North Point Government Offices, I read previous post and understand that the entrance and exit was wide enough for both MS and MX. However,chargers are at the basement floor. There is unused gate which narrowed the ramp leading to the basement. Can anyone share his experience in driving down to the basement?
The entrance and exit are wide enough for MS. You are right. As your turn down to the basement, the unused gate is very narrow. You have to be extra careful when go down and coming out as our MS back is wider than the front. My face lifted MS does not charge with any of the chargers there. In fact, my FL MS doesn't charge with any of the 32A chargers by "EVPOWER". The ones at star ferry carpark are also by EVPOWER. EV LINK chargers work though. So if you intend to park there to charge, you have to content with the 13A chargers (useless as it puts in only 9km per hr). Or drive further down the road to Lincoln House SCs. Hope this helps.
