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  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.

Internet very poor. In evenings we could not even open the email inbox. One of the staff did something & it improved but it was bad again after a few days. When I mentioned this to the front desk again they just ignored me. Unhelpful service at front desk. Could check in only after 3pm with no exception.

Before coming to the hotel, I’ve got a lot of kindly help from the service staff to choose the most suitable rooms for my family with both senior and children. We got connecting rooms that were so convenient for all of my family members. The rooms were really clean and tidied everyday. Expecially, its location is the best, very near the bus and MTR station, and what we want to eat or drink is around. We have an expected stay in Hongkong Read less

Very good accommodation at reasonable prices. Proximity to the subway and not least to lots of places to eat.

The location is very nice, near from MTR station, bus stops, mini market, restaurants, and public areas. Room was clean and all the facilities work properly. Also there is water dispenser at the lobby.

The corridor was filled with the smell of cigar but luckily it was not found in the room. Will consider CityView again in f=ny future visit as the location is super good.
