Building very smelly, elevator very humid and crowded

Position in the main street

Stayed in August 2025

A bit hard to find the correct elevator in the Mansion - main downside. There's a lot of scary stuff on the internet about this building but I'd say most of it (nowadays not in the past) is racism or scaremongering for the sake of views. Just know that it's not an expensive hotel. This place is a cheap room in a very central location. The Mansion itself looks safe to me.

I think the best part of the property is its value. It's difficult to get a better price to value ratio in HK. It's centrally located and very clean. Don't plan spending much time in the room because it's tiny but that's exactly what I was expecting.

The place has a strong smell from the ground floor because of the cooked food from the eatery.

The location is near the bus stop and mtr. Also near to some tourist attractions.

My room would be enhanced by adding some hooks for hanging clothes, toiletries bag etc. A small refrigerator in the room would be nice to add to the wish-list, but that would add to the cost and difficult in such a small room. The compact room and tiny bathroom cubicle didn't bother me - it helps to make for a budget-friendly stay in pricey HK. I'm also not bothered by the lively happenings of Chungking Mansions ground floor but some guests might find it intimidating at first. I find it adds to the experience.

Value, location, friendly reception staff, water dispenser in foyer, abundance of services & food options in location, easy access to MTR via multiple nearby exits. I requested a room I stayed in previously and received it. I also requested the use of a proper towel, and that request was also met.

Nothing wrong. If you stay in Chungking Mansion this is the friendly budget room you should expect.

Staff are friendly. Location excellent.

Generally OK, the bathroom is really tiny, but I counted with that. For Chunking Mansion, the standard is good.

Really small. Be tired when you get back to room because you can only lie down. Thought the bathroom above mine was leaking into my bathroom. Scared me.

Close to everything. Museum, port Elizabeth, metro across the street. Room very inexpensive. Staff isn’t always there but when woman was there she was very nice and helpful.

It's not easy for everybody to find it, since it's located in a building with many geust hauses and al ot of shops in the ground and first floor.

Cozy clean small room, fit easily two persons, it had two small beds, it was ok for my height. the lady at the reception is friendly and helpful.

This is a one-star hotel and the pics are suprisingly accurate. The rooms are tiny, just a twin bed, little desk, and one outlet. The bathroom is something. I had to ask where the shower was, because it's just a handheld showerhead on the wall between the toilet and sink. Make sure to turn on the heat switch, because it contols the hot water. Note... everything will get soaked! No actual towels provided, just paper, disposable ones.

Location is perfect! In the actual building, it took a bit of time to find. Fine for a night.

I felt room was poorly appointed.

The location

Stayed in January 2025

Bathroom is very thight and dirty. Also there is a sharp smell in the floor and the room.

It is really in the center of Hongkong.

Well, I was not really expecting anything grand. I already knew the downsides of booking a hostel in Chungking mansions. The room has this smell that is really noticeable when you open the door, but the Lady Staff gave us an air freshener, and it wasn't a big deal after. It's a bit crowded on the ground floor.

I liked how close it is to the MTR and other tourist destinations. You can also find a lot of shops around the area. The building is easy to find and is also near the bus stop. It can be a bit confusing to locate "E" where the guesthouse is but just follow the signs and you can also ask around. The room I booked was good for 3 and it was comfortable enough. We have our own bathroom, small but doable. I advise you bring your own bath towel since the one they're providing are the disposable ones. The lady staff is friendly, too. She let me checked in early without additional fee.

Room was tiny (even for Hong Kong standards). Had to rotate moving to get past each other as a couple and not enough room for any bags. Toilet was also tiny with shower on top of toilet. Would suit a single traveller much better.

Great location and room was very clean.

Difficult to find, tucked away in a huge market building. Not really a dislike, just a bit inconvenient. The bathroom was essentially a toilet cubicle, which is fine, but the room was advertised as having a private bathroom and, although there was a shower hose, there wasn't enough space to be able to shower because of the toilet and a small sink.

Comfy bed. Friendly host. Quiet room.

Easy access to transport

Choices for food is abundant

Stayed in November 2024

Not a dislike, but a con to be mentioned: the room is small - the bed fills it - your luggage goes under the bed - didn't bother me at all. I wasn't in HK to hang around in a room. It's in Chungking Mansions - also not a problem for me, but it might put others off staying here.

Clean room, friendly staff, secure enough, comfortable bed with amazing pillows! TV in room with access to NetFlix/YouTube etc., room had a window, which isn't always available. I was allowed to drop luggage before check-in. Water dispenser in foyer, shops & services on ground floor, proximity to 2 MTR stations. Great location.

Stayed in November 2024

The bathroom was very tight and the guest house is located inside a very messy mall.

The staff was very caring and helped me with all I needed and location is one of the best, near to subway station and near to the bay.

Stayed in October 2024

The room is tiny, like I guess all of this type of accommodation in hong kong. But it's REALLY tiny. The bed practically takes all room, and it's not a really big bed. The bathroom is microscopic. But for hong kong it was cheap which was the reason why we booked it.

The location is really good. It's a little hard to find, but they give you instructions. Very close to the subway and to the harbor . If you like jogging outside , that's the spot for you.
