Dallas - Victoria Principal (1985) - The Regent Hotel, Tsim Sha Tsui

I guess I should be calling this place "The Regent" again following its recent renaming back to the name it had prior to being called the "Intercontinental Hong Kong". The first glimpse we have of it is in Shattered Dreams as Sue Ellen and Pam sit down for drinks and chat to Mr Chen. A fellow Texan then pops up to say hello but is rebuffed by the women.

thanks for the ID anon. Regarding Legend of the Golden Pearl (aka Legend of Wisely), I believe this is the film where Sam Hui inhaled toxic gas on set by accident and led to the permanent lung damage that still affects him today. Phil

Yes, both Ti Lung and Sam Hui suffered medical conditions during the shooting of LEGEND, and the press sneaking into hospital and taking pics of Sam without permission, is one of the main reasons understandably he won't really deal with press unless its to specifically promote something and why he's very reluctant to do interviews....
