I was on vacation with my father in December. Prices definitely are about double during this month. The lobby was clean and the staff was nice. The rooms are small. We had 2 large suitcases. As you can see from the pictures, the only place to put them was by the seating area on the floor. There wasn't even a luggage rack. If you have more than 2 large suitcases, you're not going to have anywhere to walk. The bathroom was narrow and clean. The two beds are about twin size and only separated by a small nightstand. Sonic the person you're with snores, you better bring earplugs. The tv was a good size, maybe 36"? There were two USB adapters by the table & chairs. There weren't any outlets by the bed. Housekeeping was great. There were some days I told them they didn't need to turn down the room. Rooms could be updated. There is no bottled water; however, there are two 7/11 stores about a block away. I paid for the breakfast buffet. The buffet was just alright. I didn't think the selection was that great and the coffee wasn't to my liking. There are an abundance of restaurants, dessert places, specialty drink stores (boba, tea, etc..) that are within walking distance. I wish I knew this because I would've skipped paying for the bfast buffet; but it is convenient.
The hotel is very walkable to all types of restaurants, stores, specialty drink places, lady market, the MTR, Nathan Rd (one of the main streets) and the gigantic Langham Shopping Mall on Argyle street (I believe). What I liked about the hotel is that it's 1-2 blocks from the busiest foot traffic but far enough to where you're not fighting people outside of the lobby and quiet enough.
Some insights:
* 7/11 stores: There's 1 about a block away & another one about 700ft. So you can get bottled water & anything else. Also, there are 2 pharmacies nearby as well.
* Laundromat: Sunshine Laundry Convenience Store ( Shop 67 ) 陽光洗衣便利店 67分店
This is just 1.5 blocks away. This place was a lifesaver! There's only 3-4 W/D. You can use your octopus card or I think they take credit card as well. You can Google it but I think it's $40-$50 HKD. It automatically dispenses detergent as you wash. Great for general undergarments and dirty jeans, socks etc...
* Luckin coffee: you really need to download the app or Alipay HK app. I think the drinks are discounted more if you use the apps. I couldn't do it bc you need a HK #. I was super bummed bc I love their coffee. There's a location on Nathan Rd and Argyle Rd.
* ChaTraMue: this is just 3-4 blocks away. I wish I discovered this place earlier on. I got their coffee latte w/boba. It's one of their specialty drinks. It was SO GOOD!
* Zoff: If you need glasses, this place has great frames. You can get your eyes checked and grams within 30mins-an hour! They're great.
I didn't want to drag my suitcase through all the foot traffic so I ended up calling an Uber, which is very reasonable.
I would recommend this hotel. For the price and convenience to everything, I would stay here again. read more
