Inns in Hong Kong, China

I knew hotels in Hong Kong are expensive, so since the price for this one was low, I expected wat I paid for. However, basic safety and hygiene were missing.The cleanliness was only moderate at best, but the real issue was seeing rats running along the wires on the ceiling. The booking process was also a mess. l was forced to pay an additional fee just to get a room with a window, simply because it had twin beds instead of a double. It felt like a scam and poor management. The location is perfect tho.

Excellent and very clean! My son even got to practice some English with the owner, so it was definitely worth it. At first, I was a bit apprehensive seeing so many foreigners at the entrance, thinking it might not be safe. But once inside, I realized that wasn't the case at all. The owner was right there, making it feel very secure and friendly. Seeing that we were three adults with a child, they even offered an extra set of toiletries, though we didn't end up using them as we had our own. Families with kids should definitely consider this place; it's a great opportunity for them to practice English with the owner and understand its importance. This hotel offers incredible value for money! The location is fantastic too – Victoria Harbour is just a few hundred meters walk from the entrance. We stayed out until 10 pm and simply walked back, saving on subway fares. Besides the noisy air conditioning, everything else was perfect! Highly recommended!!!

This hostel and room is very simple but sufficient. It is nothing flash, feels a bit old and dilapidated but it’s clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. There is filtered water for free in the lobby. I had the two bed room shared with another traveller. The room and beds are very small and the bathroom too, and the door is thin but good to have a private bathroom. There is air con. Some of the charging ports did not work I think. The location is great, near lots of restaurants and close to the metro, easy to get to Hong Kong central by metro or ferry. The entrance to the building  has a lot of foreign men trying to sell accomodation or something, and you have to go up a lift which you may need to wait a while for.

The room was comfortable and clean, and the bedding was spotless. If you're not used to disposable towels, you can bring your own. It was perfectly fine for one person. The air conditioning and ventilation system worked great, so it never felt stuffy. All in all, for Hong Kong's high prices, under 500 a night on a weekend with a private bathroom, clean and tidy, this place offers incredibly good value for money. The location is super convenient – you can see Haiphong Mansion right after exiting the MTR station. The front desk uncle and the younger guy were both very friendly and helped with any requests. Before I left, they even helped arrange a luxurious and comfortable large business car to take me to the airport. Highly recommended!

Finding the perfect place to stay in the heart of Hong Kong can often feel like a gamble, but **Hygge Residence on Nathan Road** is a genuine jackpot. If you are looking for that elusive balance between the electric energy of Tsim Sha Tsui and a peaceful, stylish sanctuary to retreat to at night, look no further. This isn’t just a guest house or a standard hotel; it is a meticulously curated experience that lives up to its name by bringing a sense of Scandinavian ”hygge”—comfort, coziness, and well-being—to one of the busiest streets in the world. ### The Location: Unbeatable Convenience Located directly on Nathan Road, the ”Golden Mile,” you are quite literally at the center of the action. The **Tsim Sha Tsui MTR station** is just steps away, making the entire city accessible within minutes. You are within walking distance of the Victoria Harbour waterfront, the Star Ferry, and luxury shopping at Harbour City. Despite being in the middle of this urban whirlwind, the moment you step inside the residence, the noise of the city completely vanishes. The soundproofing is world-class, which is a rare and precious find in Hong Kong’s high-density environment. ### The Aesthetic and Comfort The interior design is where Hygge Residence truly shines. Unlike the cramped, dated rooms often found in this district, these units are: * **Modern and Minimalist:** Clean lines, light wood accents, and warm lighting. * **Impeccably Clean:** You can tell the management takes hygiene seriously. The linens are crisp, and the bathrooms are spotless. * **Thoughtfully Equipped:** Every square inch is utilized efficiently. From high-speed Wi-Fi that actually stays high-speed to the premium toiletries, no detail has been overlooked. ### The ”Hygge” Factor What sets this place apart is the atmosphere. There is a tangible sense of calm. After a long day of navigating the humid streets or attending business meetings, coming back here feels like a deep exhale. The bed is incredibly comfortable—the kind of mattress that makes it difficult to wake up in the morning. ### Exceptional Service The staff deserves a special mention. The check-in process is seamless, often involving smart-lock technology that makes coming and going a breeze. They are responsive, helpful, and genuinely care about your stay. It’s that boutique level of attention that makes you feel like a valued guest rather than just a room number. ### Final Verdict For the solo traveler, the digital nomad, or the couple looking for a chic urban getaway, Hygge Residence is a 10/10. It offers a premium, boutique feel without the eye-watering price tag of the five-star giants nearby. It is a masterclass in how to do urban hospitality right. I will definitely be returning on my next trip to Hong Kong. If you see an opening, **book it immediately**—places this good don’t stay vacant for long!

The front desk and the room are not in the same area, the front desk is in A, and the room is in D. People arrived late, Peter at the front desk was very enthusiastic, and he also upgraded the independent guard and introduced the details of the stay. like

Relatively easy to get to, with easy communication with the Guesthouse owners. The location is great- right in front of the Kowloon mosque which was great for us, indicating availability of halal food nearby. Within walking distance of the mtr, tourist attractions and shops (7e is right below). We took the Cityliner from the airport and got dropped off at the nearest stop which was great! Room was super tight, with small bathroom with a shower head right above the toilet. The toilet doors required some manoeuvring because it could close but was somewhat disconnected from each sliding panel (with evidence of some bugs stuck between the panels, I can understand, in rather hard to reach places).Otherwise, clean enough room and very quiet. Enough space under the beds to store luggage but otherwise, just enough space around the room for a single person to walk about, so we had to take turns and mostly sat on our beds. For very short stays, seems like a good place.

I was so busy I forgot to take photos, so I'll just talk about it. Firstly, the location is excellent. Secondly, the staff's service attitude is wonderful. During the day, there's a young man, and at night, there's a foreign young woman. The young man always greets you with a smile and speaks softly, as if he's afraid you might feel discriminated against. The foreign young woman is a bit introverted. When I saw her in the evening returning to the hotel, she wanted to say hello but didn't speak Chinese, so she just nodded at me from behind the counter. That evening, while I was showering in the hotel, someone knocked on the door. I thought it was the room next door, so I leisurely continued showering for over 10 minutes. Afterwards, when I finished showering, I realized the knocking hadn't stopped. I said 'wait,' and the knocking immediately stopped. I put on my clothes and opened the door. The young woman then nodded and asked, 'Are you speak English?' I actually know a little, but instinctively I said 'no' 😂. She then said 'wait' and handed me her phone. I thought she wanted me to look at a translation, but it was actually a call, most likely from the boss, who apologized and explained that there was a problem with the room today. Honestly, I had noticed it but wasn't too bothered, but their meticulous attitude was really impressive. After the call, the young woman nodded, said 'tks,' and left. She had waited at my door for over ten minutes just to explain this. The boss is very diligent, and the entire hotel definitely follows their excellent example, not cutting corners with customers. Another day, the young man was looking after the hotel. As soon as he saw me, he immediately apologized for yesterday's issue and even gave me a small gift as compensation. This shows that the staff remember their guests, and I didn't feel even a little bit mistreated during my entire stay. So, if you're shy, go for it! The old man who watches over the downstairs area is also very nice. If he sees you're from out of town, he'll keep an eye on you – not because he's worried you'll do something wrong, but because he's afraid you might need directions, and he's watching so you can ask him (this is my own imagination 😂). Because when I asked him, he even helped me press the elevator button and told me where to go. The hotel might be a bit hard to find for mainland Chinese. Make sure you look for the entrance between 53 and 55, then go in, otherwise you might go to the wrong place – don't ask me how I know. Thumbs up to all the staff, and thumbs up to the boss's hospitality. I hope the hotel keeps up the good work. I'll definitely come back to Hong Kong, but it's been raining a lot recently, so I only stayed for one day. If you don't like small rooms or expensive prices, don't stay here. If you're afraid of being mistreated or dealing with hassle, then stay here without hesitation. One last thing, if you have an issue, email them, the phone might not connect, and don't ask me how I know that either. They respond to emails very quickly! Also, boss, give that young man and young woman a raise, and if you really do, tell me, and I'll come back to stay again! 🤪

The place is super convenient, the entry of subway station is nearby. The spot is hidden inside a condo, it’s a unit in the condo, not a whole building itself. There is no front desk, when you reach there u just scan the qrcode pasted on the door, and contact the owner via Wechat, he will tell you the password of the smart locker of the door. And you just pick wherever an empty bed spot. Everything is prepared inside the house, you just need to look it up yourself, especially when you check in at night where the light is switched off already. The bed and the temperature inside the room is comfortable. And I love the notes left by owner, full of HongKong spirit.

It's okay, but it's a bit awkward when you come home late at night and the guard is sleeping by the roadside. There's no 24-hour front desk, but there is a guard sleeping by the side. If you're not too picky, it's fine. The room is small, just enough. The location is great, right outside the MTR station and bus station in the TST area. Free water and they even provide an adapter and a dipper.
