Hotels near City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong

My stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong, was a mixed experience. The location is absolutely superb, making it incredibly convenient for transportation and shopping, with an abundance of dining, entertainment, and activities nearby. However, the decor felt dated, much of the furniture showed significant wear and tear, and the facilities seemed old, which didn't quite match the hotel's luxury positioning. What was even more frustrating was that around 7 AM the next morning, the fire alarm suddenly blared. We rushed downstairs, only to be told by the front desk that it was triggered by steam from another guest's water heater. After that, I couldn't get back to sleep, and it really put a damper on my mood. (When checking out, the hotel mentioned they would offer a room upgrade for my next stay. I'm not sure if that will actually happen, but I'm making a note here.)

Hotels in Hong Kong are generally quite expensive with small rooms. I opted for this one primarily because its mid-range price point aligned well with my budget. The room itself wasn't small and felt quite spacious. The hotel boasts a good location. It's about a 15-minute walk from Sha Tin MTR station. Alternatively, if you prefer not to walk, several bus routes from Sha Tin station stop directly in front of the hotel, which is just one stop away. The hotel facilities are a bit dated, so don't set your expectations too high; it doesn't even compare to a typical 3-star hotel in mainland China. However, given Hong Kong's prices, this hotel offers pretty good value for money. My room only had a bathtub, no separate shower, which was a bit inconvenient as I usually shower. Interestingly, a smaller room I booked also had a shower. So, I'd recommend contacting the hotel directly when booking to clarify the room type and amenities. The hotel offers pleasant views from the room, overlooking both mountains and a river – truly beautiful and refreshing. Breakfast is served from 7:30 AM to 10:30 AM. While the selection isn't extensive, it includes staples like bread, fried noodles, fried vermicelli, sausages, eggs, yogurt porridge, and siumai. Beverages like coffee, tea, and juice are also available. The food was prepared cleanly, and it was sufficient to fill you up. Both check-in and check-out processes were very quick, especially check-out, where you simply drop your room key card into a designated box. I had a relatively long stay in Hong Kong this time. For day trips, I found it very convenient to catch buses directly from the hotel entrance. Bus 81c takes you straight to Tsim Sha Tsui, and if you're heading to Sai Kung, the 299x route is direct. I visited Sai Kung for the first time on this trip to see the sea and islands, and the water was exceptionally clean. I highly recommend taking a bus from the hotel entrance; it's only about a 30-minute ride. New Town Plaza at Sha Tin station also offers a wide range of shops and some excellent dining options. All in all, this hotel provides good value for money.

This is an established hotel, and I chose it primarily for its convenience. The L-floor lobby offers a direct corridor to Langham Place, putting shopping, dining, and the MTR all within easy reach. It's also just a few minutes' walk from the Mong Kok stop for Airport Bus A21. My only minor complaint is that despite requesting a quiet room, I was still assigned one facing the street. Additionally, the air conditioning was quite chilly.

Staff were really lovely and helpful and location is amazing less than 10 minutes from the harbour front and right next to metro. Loads of great shops, cafes, restaurants and bars right on doorstep. Noise from outside was not a problem but we could hear other guests in corridor and room. We did book a small double room with no window so we of course knew what we were getting, however we were not expecting it to be SO small. One of us had to basically sit on the bed whilst the other moved around the room it was really quite difficult especially with luggage. Not great at all if you’re claustrophobic or plan to spend much time in there - we couldn’t wait to get out of it most mornings. The bathroom is also tiny and more of a wet room - so there is no separate shower but a shower head that gets the whole bathroom and toilet soaked, we did get used to it but just remember to do everything else in the bathroom before your shower because every inch will be soaked after.

Overall: Excellent. Executive Lounge Buffet Afternoon Tea: Delicious. Facilities: Basic. Cleanliness: Spotless. View: Victoria Harbour. Service: Absolutely exceptional.

Park Lane Hotel is an ideal location for me. Easy access to all amenities and even have supermarkets right at the door step especially during typhoon season that was god send i can honestly say. Specially shout out to couple of the “Doorman” Sony and Awatar they have been doing fantastic job and make you welcomed and wanting to come back to stay in this hotel again. Minor suggestion is that there are only handful of benches …. very uncomfortable even though every hotel is different but still believe they are need to put more attention to the guests experience. MORE SEATING PLEASE !!!!

Had a pleasant stay in this hotel. The room was on the smaller side, but it was comfortable and just right for me and my son. The daily room service was a great touch—they provided fresh towels, tissues, and neatly fixed the bed each day. While there was no bidet, the handheld shower served as a convenient alternative. The amenities were complete as described, though guests should bring their own toothbrush and toothpaste. One of the best things about this place was its accessibility. It was conveniently close to the bus station for airport transfers and just a short walk to Mong Kok MTR station, making it easy to explore the city. Overall, a nice and hassle-free stay! Sorry, I wasn't able to take pic of the room. Forgot, we are too busy during our stay, super enjoyed the stay, because it was close to everything you need. Literally room for sleep for us.

Thank you for assigning us such a great room - amazing view, spotless, and we truly relaxed! The swimming pool was spacious and reassuring with lifeguards in on duty. Having drinking water available on the G/F was incredibly convenient. We’ll definitely return 100%!

I came to Hong Kong to see 'The Great Lawyer' and 'Yi Yi'. With other hotels being quite expensive, this one offered a reasonable price, so I decided to book it. I admit I was a bit worried after reading some reviews, but my experience turned out to be excellent. The hotel isn't far from Tin Hau MTR station. Be aware that Gaode Maps (Amap) might direct you through small alleys; it's simpler to just walk along the main road for a bit before using navigation. The front desk staff were very friendly and welcoming. While the room was compact, it was spotlessly clean and felt quite new, which is a big plus for Hong Kong hotels. They provided both soft and firm pillows. There was a slight, faint buzzing sound from the bedside strip light, but it wasn't disruptive at all. All in all, it offers excellent value for money. And on a side note, 'The Great Lawyer' musical was absolutely fantastic – I really feel it marks a new high for Chinese musicals, combining both innovation and cultural tradition. I would definitely consider staying here again on my next visit.
