Hotels near The Peak, Hong Kong

The hotel positions itself as a 4-star establishment, but it falls short of that mark. Here's a breakdown of my experience: Location: The location is excellent, if you don't mind a steep uphill walk. However, the entire island is built on different levels, which isn't a negative but rather a positive – a daily workout! There's a bus stop right by the hotel, making it easy to reach the metro instead of walking up and down, straining your leg muscles. Next door is a botanical and zoological garden where you can take a stroll. By the way, entry is free. A 10-minute walk down the hill leads to the cable car ”tram” stop for a trip to Victoria Peak. Check-in: Check-in was fast, but a USD 300 deposit is required, which isn't mentioned on either the trip.com website or the hotel's website. If you need an adapter for your electronic devices, ask for one right away – the receptionist won't offer it. Room: The room is relatively clean, though I did find some hair in the kitchen and on the bedding. For Hong Kong, the room is spacious, but there's nowhere to store a suitcase. You can set the temperature on the air conditioner, but it doesn't work. It only blows cold air, making the room humid. Kitchen: The kitchen is minimally equipped, but it's sufficient. However, upon check-in, they warn you that the stove can only be used for reheating food, not cooking, as the fire alarm system is very sensitive and might activate the siren due to hot steam. You must turn on the exhaust fan to full power and the air conditioner to avoid triggering the alarm. Why bother having a kitchen at all? Bathroom: The same situation as with the kitchen – you need to close the door and turn on the air conditioner at full power while showering to avoid the fire alarm being triggered by steam from the bathroom. The shower hose started leaking on the second day of my stay. It was replaced with a new one, which also leaked. When the technician replaced the hose, did he check if the equipment was working properly? I doubt it. Breakfast: Breakfast is only served from a menu, which is quite limited. It's delicious, but not diverse. Is this the service you'd expect from a 4-star hotel? The breakfast organization is chaotic – staff running around and clanging dishes. Two slow coffee machines and one toaster keep guests waiting in line. By the way, there are plastic mugs for tea and coffee. The only fruit options are two types of apples – red and green. Service: The service is polite, but I'd say it's ”on demand.” You need to ask for shampoo, shower gel, and dishwashing liquid to be refilled. The housekeeping, for some reason, doesn't notice the need to replenish hygiene products in the bathroom and kitchen. Environmentalism: As in all of Hong Kong, they no longer provide water in plastic bottles. That's good, but come up with an alternative so guests don't have to go to the store for water. In my opinion, this environmental concern is simply an opportunity to reduce service costs while maintaining high accommodation prices. Speaking of breakfast again, the jam and butter are provided in small plastic containers, just like on airplanes. Is this really about caring for the environment? Conclusion: Overall, it's a good choice if you're not bothered by the minor service inconsistencies and if you don't have high expectations for a 4-star hotel. If you're visiting Hong Kong, I'd recommend Two MacDonell Road.

The hotel is well located, close to the main areas of the island and to go to TST. Even though it is an older hotel, it still has its charm and such spacious rooms, especially for HK level. The bathtub is one of the best I had before, bed is outstandingly comfortable and the coffee machine in the room is certainly a plus. Great views from the moutains and the city, feels like an oasis. Breakfast was great, staff was courteous and spoke good English.

One of the few hotels that allows accommodation of 4 (two adults, an infant and a child under 9) in a single room. Location is excellent and view is amazing. The room is newly renovated, very clean and tidy. Room is very well thought out and very good sized. Only downside is it takes awhile to get into an elevator during peak hours. Relatively kids friendly, booking during Christmas stay included welcome loot bags for kids.

Nina Island South feels like home! I have stayed in Nina hotel group for some years now and am especially fond of the Nina Island South! Facilities are unquestionably great but what makes everything different was the super helpful and friendly staff! During this stay as I entered the room, I found the door handle was loose and that the toiletries were replaced with a new brand of new scent. Needless to say the door handle was a bit of security concern, but it’s funny coz I didn’t realise I got so used to the toiletry scent from all my previous stays in Nina that the scent almost somehow signifies the hotel for me. And having the scent replaced by the new toiletries felt like something was missing in the stay! So I enquired about the door fixing and whether I could get the toiletries from the past. The friendly and helpful operator lady, Fiona quickly send technicians (bear bear who is professional and polite!) and fixed our security concern in a blink of an eye! She also explained the new set of toiletries was implemented a few months back under Nina brand while being understanding of how the new brand made me feel unfamiliar. Then she kindly and promptly confirmed with the help of respective staff that old stocks were still available and have staff玉梅 deliver 5 bottles to my room straight away. I was very impressed with the gesture of taking my enquiry seriously, taking prompt actions and taking extra steps to have guest feel like home. Of course it wouldn’t have done without help from other staff including Julia, Chris, Sammy, Jimmy, Jeff, as well as Cathy’s superb leadership. Would definitely revisit

Location is great - shopping mall is on 3-6 floors, street with lots of restaurants is downstairs. Breakfasts and food quality could be better. Staff service doesn’t match 5 star hotel (don’t pick up dirty plates, don’t offer tea or coffee). Spa and pool are closed. Rooms are new, but really dusty. Elevator system is breaking your mind.

Good location for me as I run errand there. Near to bus stop and airport bus A10 is 5mins walk. There's a MacDonald and a few convenient stores and supermarket around. Quick check-in with a deposit of HKD500. There's a lift under maintenance so there's a queue to go upstairs. Room is basic but clean. My room is directly opposite the lift so there's a little noise. Overall, value for money.

The Mini hotel is in an excellent location, which is close to public transportation and restaurants. Perched on a modest hill above the bustling Central area of Hong Kong Island, Mini Hotel is a wise choice for budget travelers. Shopping is convenient too. Just be prepared to climb up a hill or do some steps if you do not get a taxi drop off. Yes, I would stay here again and I would recommend this hotel to other travelers.

The desk clerk remembered me from previous visits and worked hard to make my stay enjoyable. This hotel is perfectly located in Wanchai. There are a variety of rooms, the suites offer superb views. The buffet breakfast is great but arrive early to ensure a comfortable dining experience. You can work out my meaning if I say the hotel is popular with mainlanders.

My hotel experience was fantastic. The room was clean and spacious, with a stunning view. The staff were courteous and helpful, making me feel welcome. The food at the restaurant was delicious, and the amenities, including the pool and gym, were top-notch. I had a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Location is good as just walking distance to mtr station, and cleanliness is acceptable. but in terms of room size, it is very small. mine is a standard room, but actually there is no proper working desk or bench, but just a movable computer desk at the gap between the bed and the wall. and the toilet area is extremely small, that the toilet seat is just next to the sliding door, only a small gap between the bathtub and toilet seat. and the washing basin is outside the toilet just next to the door. basically, these small spaces make the room stay quite inconvenient. anyway, with the price, it can still be acceptable and reasonable if you don't mind the very small spaces.
