The Cityview

Hong Kong, Far East

Virgin rating

The hotel

The Cityview knows its audience. In one of the world’s most dynamic metropolises, this urban outpost delivers the slick city styling, high-tech touches, handy hotel features, and ‘centre-of-everything’ location every discerning international traveller’s after. Bang-on-trend, you’re greeted by a living plant wall that sets the tone of this modern downtown Kowloon hotel. While the styling, fitness zone, and international buffet may feel reassuringly familiar, the Cantonese cuisine of The Balcony and Thai tastes of Amazing (served under a plant-draped pergola for that ‘al fresco dining’ feel), give an exciting flavour of the East – one backed up by its location in the entertainment and shopping district, just steps from Yau Ma Tei subway station and near Hong Kong’s famous markets.

Great location, friendly reception and door man, pleasure to award free upgrade to new wing despite given a two single beds vs double bed, window noise not much but door & wall noise insulation from neighbors was a little sad but overall with their location and almost new room, very very worth to stay 👍👍👍

Goom location, good room service. Worth the price! Food options are many outside the hotel. MTR access is just a minute walk away. However, there is no swimming pool in the hotel as well as the pillows could have been better as they were unconfortable.

The hotel is clean and and modern, staff are great, breakfast is good. Our major let down was that we were unaware the connecting room would not have a window and our window was about 1mx1.2m. The photos of the "deluxe" rooms shows full room width windows. We thought we would have two of those rooms attached, but we did not. One room had no window at all. This was a great disappointment. They offered two separate rooms, but it is hard to socialise in one room. Read less

Location is awesome, super convenient to MTR and food. For toy collectors, in's point is around the corner and Sino center is a short 5 min walk. Night life is great, you can go to Mong Kok or Night Temple. Hotel has a nice restaurant if you want to stay in to eat, lobby has a nice resting area.
