Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Garden View Hong Kong is appreciated for its location near Hong Kong Park and the Botanical Garden, as well as its convenient proximity to Central, though some guests mention a walk uphill is involved. Many guests enjoyed rooms with views of the city skyline and the Botanical Garden, finding the rooms spacious compared to typical Hong Kong accommodations. The presence of a supermarket nearby is a definite plus for many. However, some guests have noted that the hotel's facilities and furniture appear somewhat dated.

The location is pretty sweet. It's a quick walk to central, awesome. i stayed in a freshly refurbished room. i loved being right next to the park. it was a pleasure to wander around. i found a supermarket in the building next door too. That was convenient!

I was pretty bummed. the room didn't look like the pictures at all. the restaurant was a major letdown with terrible service and awful food. i had to walk uphill in the dark to get there at night. It was annoying.

The hotel photos were misleading. The room next door was very loud, and I could hear everything. There was no soundproofing. they charged for water without telling me ahead of time! The bed was not very big for the price.

i was quite disappointed with several aspects of my stay. my room, a superior queen or twin room, felt rather basic, lacking special touches i expect from a four-star hotel. the absence of complimentary extras like combs or razors was noticeable , especially considering the hotel's rating. additionally , i found the furniture showed signs of wear and tear , with visible scratches.

I found good gym équipement, it had enough for my needs! Super clean everywhere! The supermarket downstairs was super convenient for snacks and drinks. The bed was comfy and the room size was decent. I would stay again!

The extra charge for water in the room, after I drank it, was an unpleasant surprise. It's a shame! I wish they told me beforehand!

the location was good with an excellent view of the city. the breakfast is at the tower restaurant, a little cozy but the taste is good.

the refrigerator did not work properly though technicians responded quickly twice. they were unable to fix the problem. the air conditioning also didn't work in the bedroom and the safe had a low battery. upkeep seems to be a problem.
