“A Hidden Gem”

1/1 found this review helpful

This hotel is part of the YMCA group and is about 10 minutes walk from the underground train station and Star ferry.
We were a family of 2 adults and 1 child and with an extra foldaway in the room space was a bare minimum.
Staff are extemely friendly and efficient and always eager to help or answer any queries.
Breakfasts are buffet style with an enormous choice.
The hotel is in Wanchai (Red Lght area) but situated in a quiet zone.
Only critricism is that there are not many restaurants in the vicinity- 10 minutes walk to high traffic areas.
Families will not be hassled by ladies of the night and Hong Kong is generally safe even in this area.

Thoroughly recommended

Stayed here for two nights this past weekend and thought it was a good value for the price. (They upgraded me which also helped.) The hotel is very close to the MTR as well as the Wan Chai Star Ferry. (~10 min walk to both)
There is a buffet breakfast offered in the morning but I'd skip it. It's not really worth the price you'll pay. You're better off holding out for dim sum elsewhere.
Also, if you don't mind some exercise, you can walk to many of the major sights in HK Island from the hotel. I didn't take the MTR at all on my first day but made it to Victoria Peak, Central/Mid-Levels escalator (and surrounds) then just took the Star Ferry over to Tsim Sha Tsui.

“Great view, very clean rooms and friendly staff”

Harbour View International House

5 of 5 stars
Malaysia

5/5 found this review helpful

We paid HK$1450 for a room/night with an extra bed thru the HKIA Hotel Agent. I thought that it was pretty expensive for the hotel rating of 2 stars (as indicated in trip advisor hotel rating) but later I realised that it's worth it.

When I reached the hotel, I was surprised to find that the rooms were cosy small but very clean. it comes with a 20" LCD tv attached to the wall. Although the toilet was very small too but I still loved it as it's very new, modern and clean. So, I thought that this hotel should be given at least a 4 star or 5 star hotel.

The view from the hotel room was splendid at day or night as you'll be facing the harbour.

The location is near the convention centre, Central Plaza (one of the highest building in HK) and MTR but shopping mall is quite some distance away. However, you can find some good food restaurant & night market that sells good and cheap stuff just below the MTR station.

The lobby was pretty small but it's cosy with hotel staff smiling at you and greeting you. Check-in & check-out was no hassle as I'm with a 2 year old toddler.

So, I think the $ that I paid for is worth it based on my 1 night stay. I'll sure stay in Harbour View International House again.

“Million Dollar View”

Harbour View International House

Dec 5, 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

I recently stayed at the Harbourview International House for 4 nights.
Our room on the 16th floor overlooked the harbour which was spectacular both day and night. Handy location and very quiet! The room was spotless, although on the small side (think NYC hotel room or cruise ship cabin.) The staff were very friendly and I would be happy to reccomend this hotel to anyone unless you were looking for a 5 star luxury accomodation experience. I will be staying here again.
