“I found the emphasis on modern design with luxurious comfort quite compelling, especially in a calmer Hong Kong neighborhood with easy access to local spots; the rooftop bar and infinity pool add an undeniable allure. It's a solid choice for those wanting a stylish base from which to explore, balancing city access with a more relaxed vibe.”

Excellent stay with harbor view

harbor view convenient location attentive staff easy transportation
The hotel is located near a bus stop and an MTR station. This made exploring convenient. Staff, from the front desk to housekeeping, were attentive and polite. The room faced the harbor and I enjoyed a gorgeous sunset view. I found the bus to Times Square easy. It only required four stops.
I found a faulty lift in operation. This caused a terrible experience.

Fantastic Stay with Amazing Views!

gorgeous sunset attentive staff
I arrived in the evening and was treated to a gorgeous sunset. The hotel is near a bus stop and the MTR station making it easy to explore the city. The staff I met from the front desk to housekeeping were attentive and polite. After the second day, I took the bus to Times Square and Pottinger Street instead of the MTR.
The hotel operated a faulty lift, and I was in it. That was a terrible experience. During check-in, they informed me about an annual electrical inspection. There was no electricity available for half a day , and it was never disclosed before.

The hotel location was very convenient! it was a short walk to the mtr station. this made getting around super easy and fast! the room size was also great. There was plenty of space, and the harbor view was awesome.
The breakfast selection was a bit limited. the wi-fi was spotty. It kept disconnecting. also, there weren't many restaurants nearby. It would have been nice to have more choices.

a perfectly lovely stay

pet-friendly atmosphere delicious dinner tasty options
i adored the pet-friendly atmosphere.. my dog and i felt so welcome. the dog-friendly restaurant allowed us to have dinner and breakfast together and that was so special to me. my furry friend really enjoyed the dog menu and i could tell the staff put real care into its creation.
the hotel didn't answer my calls about a lost item i forgot. i tried to contact them multiple times but received no response after my stay concluded. it was disappointing as i hoped to retrieve my belonging without further difficulty.

Acceptable Stay with Notable Issues

constant train sounds thin walls
The gym had adequate equipment and provided both towels and showers, convenient.
The room was unfortunately noisy. I constantly heard train sounds from the nearby metro. Walls were paper thin too so noise from neighbours was hard to ignore, resulting in little sleep.
