great location for entertainment and transport

have stayed at this hotel on 5 different occasions, always polite and helpful. this time though I had credit card trouble, the banks not the hotels problem, after discussing prob with hotel manager and organising to fix next day or just pay cash, I returned to hotel very late that evening to be locked out of my room and lifts, approached different manager whom wouldn't let me in room unless I paid for the night?????????? paid cash... same prob next day....pretty laid back person but blew up massive, not the right way to be treated.......

Horrible experience

Hotel gave us a room with faulty tv set & no aircon, but promised to fix it by the time my dad & I were back at night. However, it wasn't fixed as what they claimed. And forced us to change to a double bed room instead of twin bed for that night, as they didn't have twin bed room available for that night. I had to argue with them and was put on hold for about 10min before they agreed to change to a twin bedroom for us. It was 30min later when we got another call saying the room was ready, however, it wasn't ready and we had to stand/ wait outside the new room for another 10min while they tried to get the room ready. Extremely bad experience, will never stay in this hotel again, considering how they treat frequent/ returning guests.

Convenient hotel but subpar on service and comfort

Hotel is rated at 4 star but it is only between a 2 to a 3 star in US standard. Only the lobby looks like a 4 star hotel. The hallway is narrow and dim. The room, the carpet, and bathroom is marginally clean. Room service did not give us the two bottles of water on the second day. I called room service, waited one hour and no one showed up. Called the front desk again and 15 minutes later got our water from the room service. We were on the 15th floor and could still hear the music and noises from the bars on Lockhart road. It was not super loud but noticeable. The beds and pillows were too soft. The swimming area was not appealing.

HK trip

Location is decent, although room wasn't all that clean. Carpets and curtains are probably have not been replaced or cleaned in past decade. this is a not a 4 star hotel more like 1.5. Towels and sheets all had steins on them and even when they were replaced still the same. The place itself is really old. Room was small but decent size. Either stay at Central or Causeway districts.

Great Location

Loved the location! Close to so many good and cheap restaurants. Handy to MTR. Staff were polite and very helpful. Rooms were clean but small, however I've been spoil in the past with stays in in Vegas.Loved the use of the free phone where I could call free back to the US. I definitely would recommend this Hotel to others.

Upgraded bigger room

Hotel sign is small that caused us bit hard to find. We got free upgrade to bigger room don't know whether related to my boyfriend's birthday on our check in day. Few guys look like bell boy standing at lobby without greeting or helping guests to handling luggage. Older building and hotel design, but it's still comfortable & big room. The most excited things is toilet shower head with massage function and powerful water jet! Handy phone provided for guests. There's free airport shutter bus stop in front of hotel entrance. Nearby covered by bars which suit to whom like to drink. It's about 10 ~ 15 mins to walk to MTR either Wan Chai or Admiralty station, the hotel located at the middle.

Hong Kong Whirlwind

This is a western-style hotel a couple blocks from the nearest MTR/public transit, making it a convenient option for travelers from out of the country like myself. Most importantly, it comes with a free Handy smartphone to use during the stay! No need for a Sim card or international plan - you can make local calls and use any apps (maps or messaging included) without issue! That alone made it worthwhile for me. Beyond that, the hotel was very comortable and had usual western amenities included, such as soap, lotion, shampoo, comb, shaving kit, etc., as well as a few perks like a minibar, free bottled water, and bath robes. The views are also nice - I could see the harbor a bit through my window. The sheets did have a light stain here or there, but overall the room and facility was great for the cost. Wan Chai is a fairly central area on the island, and a few basic stores were nearby if one would need any necessities. I was in Hong Kong for 5 days visiting a friend and stayed here for 3 nights as part of the trip.

Value for money

It is a okay stay. The hotel is very value for money and alright for the amount paid. I just didn't like the walk back from wan chai station exit c as there is numerous pubs and it's very rowdy at night. The hotel has a very nice lobby but the rooms are not in very good condition as the control panels are falling apart. But overall for the price paid I am satisfied.

Clean sheets, comfy bed, spacious, free wifi

location: its a 5-10mins walk from wan chai mtr close to the wan chai street market and it is possible to walk to causeway bay or hop on the tram infront of the mtr room: big enough for two to three people. large king size bed, clean sheets soft pillow. it was big enough to open two luggages, ample space for shoes and a large LCD tv with cable tv, a desk and chair. there are smoking rooms or non smoking rooms. A safe and large wardrobe for hanging your clothes. toothbrush, shampoo soap, comb, shaving kit for men and a packet for women which contains items for women like shower cap, nail filer, cotton pad for makeup removal, ear cleaning cotton buds. complimentary 2 bottled of mineral water, bedroom slippers, enough towels for bathing, handtowels, face towels.. its all provided! handwash and tissue... just bring your clothes if you're staying here! bathroom comes with a bathtub too, the space between the bathtub and door may feel awkwardly small but its alright. overall: will definitely return again. staff are polite and friendly. patient. able to speak english, mandarin if you need.
