Tips and suggestions on where to stay in Hongkong

[angelholics]

i've stayed sa lily guest house and see thru ang CR nila lol, evergreen hotel ok din and affordable

hi sis 23mirAmir, nun time namin last year regarding sneak-in nahiya un isang kasama namin.. isa lang naman sya pero feeling nya daw madaming naka tingin at maraming hidden cctv.. so i guess sis lakasan ng loob lang. un friend ko is a female and hindi nya kinaya nag bayad sya as extra head.. pero we usually do sneak-in sa mga hotel/resort sa pinas

[23mirAmir]

^ thanks sis angelholics..  how was your stay at lily garden guest house? I just booked their triple room for 4d/3n trip on december thru agoda.. May hair dryer ba at mini fridge ang room? kasi it was shown in the photos that some rooms have mini fridge.. In terms of security, is it OK to leave things, hindi ba nila inaattemp i-search while you're out? TIA..

Hi sis, magkano per night sa lily garden guesthouse? punta din kasi ako with friends this september wala pa kaming hotel.

Mga sis may hotel ba kayo na pwedeng recommend na mura lang at sana sa may TST near MTR. Thanks in advance mga sisses! 

[23mirAmir]

^ sis CutieAngel, i got the triple room for 2,060/night (10% service charge included) thur agoda. lily garden offers 25% off, also check if your cc has additional discount if you book thru their agoda special link.. i choose this over sydney hostel in chungking because, its located at mirador mansion w/c is nicer compare to chungking and their rooms are located at the 5th floor only.. this will allow us to use the stairs when we're heading out, so we don't have to wait for the elevator... quite fair reviews, like their hot water works 24/7 and good wifi... i just indicated on the special request that i want big beds and room with fridge and hair dryer..

hello po mga sis, ask ko lang kung may mga hotel ba sa TST o near Central na pwede makapag sneak-in 3adult & 1kid lang kame.. kaya lang sana yung pang 2person room lang avail namin para mas makatipid kame.. I read na sa Macau sa mga big hotels like Venetian, eh nakakapag sneak in sila ng tao.. any advice.. TIA

Most 3 stars and up na hotel naman in TST nakakapag-sneak in... basta wag lang isama during check-in.  Just get their luggage of the adult, bring the kid (make sure that the hotel does not have additional charge for the kid).  Then once you have the keys, paakyatin na ang 3rd adult, or sunduin ng isa if the key is required to use the elevators.

[23mirAmir]

^ thanks sis ziva, but i already made an advance booking at lily garden gueat house 2weeks ago.. nagsale kasi sa agoda at paylater option pa.. december pa naman ang byahe namin kaya nagwoworry ako na baka tumaas ang rates sa mga ganung araw kapag late na ko nagbook..

Hi mga Sis!

Share ko lang yung hotel na nastayan namen. Shamrock Hotel along Nathan Road. Very convenient kasi konting lakad lang Airport bus na (A21) at sa tabi yung Jordan exit ng MTR. May dryer at mini fridge.

The other is Hotel Benito, malapit lapit lang siya sa harbor, katabi lang din ng TST MTR exit at very near din sa A21 bus at may mga fastfood sa tabi. May fridge at hair dryer too. Sa 2 hotels na to, mas gusto ko to kasi cheaper ng konti at yun nga mas malapit sa harbor at sa fastfood (yoshinoya, mcdo etc). And both hotels may additional discount if you book with BPI card thru Agoda.

Hope this helps!

Mga sis, can you suggest budget hotel/hostel for 5 adults and 1 kid(2yearsold) will be going there on june 7-10. Another question gabi na kasi kami darating on june 7, do some hotel/hotels offer half day rate pag ganon? Thanks!

Hi everyone. My family and I has flight on December 04-08,2015 for vacation We are 6 (5adults and 1 child). May I ask if it is okay to find an accommodation in Chunking Mansion,Nathan Road, Tsim Sha Tsui? Because we browse it and I notice that is nice but the again I had a doubt to make a reservation. Can you please help us so that we can decide for these or can you please give us any suggestions?
Thank you very much!

[23mirAmir]

^ sis depende na yata yan sayo kung hindi ka choosy at kailangan nyo lang talaga ng tulugan at pag iiwanan ng gamit eh ok na dun..yun na lang kasi ang pwedeng option kung gusto mo makatipid..

I had to cancel kasi my previous booking sa lily garden at mirador mansion, unfirtunately wala na silang family room for our dates kaya napilitan na lang ako humanap ng iba na mura thru agoda..

I managed to book a family room good for 4 pax child below 10 stays for free if sharing of bed at safari lodge in chungking mansion.. I hope everything went well kasi full packed ang sched namin..

Personally, i wouldn't choose to stay in Chungking. Lalo if may kasamang bata. Naguguluhan talaga ako dun. Tapos madami pa nakatambay na mga male Bangladeshi (??) na nagku-kumpulan. I'd rather book any hostel in the same building as Golden Crown or sa Mirador. Or sa may Causeway Bay na lang. But then again, sa akin lang naman yun. Madami pa din naman nagsi-stay sa Chungking and keri naman nila. Personal non-preference ko lang.

[_pink12_]

^^^Same with bagaholic_chewy Almera. Don't book any hostels inside Chungking Mansions. It's a shady building, you can google some news about it. Marami namang budget-friendly options like Golden Crown and guesthouses in Mirador Mansion. Meron din guesthouses sa Mongkok like Dragon Hostel.

[esor]

^^same here, I still recommend Golden Crown Guesthouse, twice na ko nakapag stay sa GC, and for me okay talaga yung location, though maliit lang talaga yung mga rooms nila. I'm coming back this January, and plan to stay pa din sa GC

Between Royal Plaza Hotel (Mongkok) and Royal Park Hotel (Sha Tin), which one would you recommend?  Group of 12 pax with elderly and kids and teens. 

Itinerary is

Day 1: Madam Tussaud, Victoria Peak, Avenue of Stars, night market
Day 2: HK Disneyland
Day 3: free time (am), en route to airport in the afternoon

There's a 6k price diff between the two hotels (Royal Plaza rate is higher).

[runbarbierun]

^ Go for Mongkok. I think Sha Tin's quite far? IIRC, when we went there medyo malayo train namin

we went to hong kong last week. we stayed in Disney's Hollywood Hotel for 3 nights.

It is our first time na kasama ang daughter namin and it was very convenient kasi my airport transfer din. We had breakafst nun 2nd day sa Enchanted Restaurant then we also tried Chef Mickey on our 4th Day.

Sis Princess Lorraine. Super ganda nga ng Disneyland Hotel. Next time, dun na kami. hehe.

hi, strikto po ba sila sa occupant kasi ang sabi 4 person lang sila per room. pero lima kasi kame 3 anak ko at asawa ko

thanks.

[msbrick]

Anyone here who stayed at heritage lodge? Any good or bad experiences? I know it's a bit far from city, we don't mind naman. We'll just stay there for 3 nights. Dun kasi kami binook ng travel agency.

[melvel]

^ sis possible kaya sneak in sa royal plaza? 3adult and 1kid kame?
tipid mode kame sa accommodation kasi most of the time nasa kalye kame.. bed and bath lang talaga ang purpose  namin.. kino consider ko na rin yung mga hostels sa tsim sha tsui kaya lang creepy daw yung mga dadaanan paakyat..

saan ba ang location ng royal plaza at madali ba mag commute from there?  TIA

Gateway Marco Polo madali sneak in because there's an entrance from the third floor of Harbour City mall. So sa check in sa first floor, dalawa lang kayo mag show up, then ask your two other companions to go straight to the room from the third floor.

[ForeverDreamer]

sissies pakisagot naman please... sa mga nakapagstay na dito GC
my elevator ba sa sila (golden crown)?
kasi kung may mga dala ka malalaking luggages ,
di kaya mag stairs may bata pa.

We've stayed at The Vela Hong Kong Causeway Bay. Wala nga lang airport transfer. Mura lang siya actually. We've booked our rooms through agoda. Less than 2k per night with 2 double beds meaning 4 persons per room. Malapit sa Time Square walking distance lang siya nandun na din ang MTR. Malapit ang 7-11, McDonalds. Sa likod ng Time Square meron din doon mga market na may Chinese bakery tsaka parang carinderia mura pa foods dami pang servings (nakita lang namin kung kailan pabalik na kami ng Manila lol)
