Scenic Hotels in Hong Kong

"We did not expect a 4- or 5-star hotel to allow its internet system to remain down for an entire night. This caused a long queue at check-in, and it took us almost two hours to complete the process and be escorted to our room, as the staff were unable to issue our room access card. In addition, we had booked and paid for a room for three guests. While the room did have two large beds, only two sets of amenities were provided. View from room was good though"

"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."

"I had an absolutely excellent stay at the Hopewell Hotel. From the moment I arrived, everything felt fresh, modern, and welcoming. The entire property is spotless and feels brand new, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The location is perfect—close to everything you could want, yet peaceful enough to relax and unwind. The staff were professional, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile, making the stay feel effortless. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything I needed for comfort. The little details really stood out, showing the hotel’s commitment to quality and guest satisfaction. Overall, I loved every moment of my stay here. If you’re looking for a luxurious, five-star experience with a fantastic location and a fresh, modern feel, the Hopewell Hotel is the perfect choice. I’ll definitely be returning!"

"Unfortunately, I always seem to get insect bites whenever I stay at this hotel, and this visit was no exception. The newer hotel tower offers genuinely beautiful and pleasant views. Check-out is half an hour earlier than standard. Citing their policy of not providing single-use plastic-packaged amenities, they don't offer a shower cap or toothbrush (though slippers are available). Bottled water also isn't provided and must be purchased. Overall, I'd say just try to enjoy your stay and don't pay too much attention to the staff's attitude. Given the value for money, it's still somewhat worthwhile!"

"I stayed in the hotel during my birthday, Miss Bernadette who assisted me during check in was so friendly and even gave me a room upgrade during my stay. Furthermore, she even gave me a complimentary birthday cake and that was so sweet of her! I truly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The view was spectacular!"

"Hotel is pretty decent for HK and the price we paid, considering holiday season. But disappointed for a 4-Star chain standards. All basic facilities are provided. No frills. More like a 3-star than a 4-star. Shuttle makes it easier to get to shopping centre, closer to trains and buses to the city. Pool is only open during specific hours but they do have a lifeguard in duty so I’m not sure if I can complain. Gym has bare minimum equipment. They did mention we got an upgrade but the room is similar to what we booked. It’s a modern-tiny space-saving design room so it’s smart but annoying with the lack of cupboards, floor space etc. Everything in the room is tightly packed. You just get in, sleep an get out but that’s Hong Kong I guess."

"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%!"

"This hotel is conveniently located near Disneyland. We took the hotel shuttle to the MTR station, followed by two MTR transfers to reach the park. Despite reading negative comments online and bracing myself for potential discrimination, I was pleasantly surprised. The staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and professional, patiently answering all our questions. Many even spoke Mandarin. The hotel itself was very quiet, and for the price, it offered exceptional value for money in Hong Kong. (P1: Exterior view taken from inside the hotel.)"

"I’ve always stayed at Dorsett WanChai when I visit Hong Kong. Great service. They treated me well years ago and now they show much hospitality to my twin boys. It would’ve been perfect if it wouldn’t for the Typhoon Ragasa. I am still grateful for everything! Spent lotta time at the gym during the typhoon alert period. Breakfast spread is decent too. Thank you for your hospitality 🥰"

"Having enjoyed a fantastic stay at the Shangri-La Hotel in Shenzhen two days prior to my arrival in Hong Kong, I naturally gravitated towards a Shangri-La property, choosing the Kerry Hotel. The hotel boasts a grand lobby, and for enhanced security, access to guest floors requires a key card. The cleanliness throughout was also exceptional. I booked a double sea-view room, and its floor-to-ceiling windows offered direct, panoramic views of the entire Victoria Harbour. Just below the hotel is a beautiful waterfront promenade, perfect for a leisurely stroll to the Avenue of Stars and K11, both within a mere 2-kilometer walk. The lobby service was superb, completely shattering the stereotype of cold, impersonal service often associated with Hong Kong hotels. Restaurants are conveniently located just off the lobby corridor, with prices comparable to external establishments, not inflated. Unfortunately, I had only booked for one night and was unable to extend my stay as there were no rooms available. The next day, I moved to a nearby Bay Apartment Hotel, which simply couldn't compare to the Kerry. That hotel only changed its bedsheets every three days – absolutely disgusting! And its room rate was only HKD 300 less than the Kerry. Seriously, avoid that place!"
