For a hotel thatI knew beforehand was formerly YMCA, with no pool nor fitness center, which I chose mainly because of its proximity to the Convention Center and for the cheaper price compared to Grand Hyatt, Harbour View Int'l House actually exceeded my expectations. The rooms were much much nicer than previous YMCA hotels I've stayed at (even though they are quite small, which is not surprising for HK). The staff were very friendly and helpful. Criticisms and suggestions: perhaps better if Wi-fi were included in room rate; also, as the breakfast buffet is so expensive, make provisions for some budget breakfast meals. In the future, adding a fitness center would be a good idea. Overall, very good experience. I'm very happy I chose this hotel

Very comfortable hotel, room was very clean, bathroom a bit tight but modern. The sheets, beds, pillows, carpets, and furniture all looked new and fresh. good view of the harbor. if your are attending a convention, you just need to cross the street. a little further is the star ferry to wanchai. the hotel is also very near the peak, the macau ferry, and the airport express centrial terminal --l about hk$16-20 cab ride (flag down rate is hk$15). I will recommend this hotel to my friends and family. bathroom a bit tight. very friendly and courteous staff. waht can i say, the location is great. ate at the tea cafe just once. food was reasonable and staff were helpful. but it wasn't very impressive. didn't mind it though, i preferred to eat out anyway. very clean, spotless bathroom and carpet. i should have brought my notebook computer. did not know it had free internet.

I liked the hotel since it was very convenient for me, being located nearby our Hongkong office in Central Plaza.I would definitely use the same hotel in one of my future visits to Hongkong. My personal opinion is that as long as the room I am staying in is new and in good condition, I am comfortable. Just keep on maintaining the place and I am sure you will have regular clients like me. The staff were proactive, assisting with your luggages, helping you find a cab. The food choices are limited but the premises are clean. The food available during the buffet is good. For the price and the location, I consider it excellent especially for business travellers. For my purposes, it is very convenient, as it is only a short walk to Central Plaza. One can easily get transportation, but the downside is the unavalibility of a driveway. When there is a downpour, guests will really get wet unless there is a bellman on stand by to assist.

The room is quite compact with little room for movement esp. if you have a child with you. Also, provided room accessories are very basic. Generally, we like the staff friendliness except on one incident when we ordered food in our room, a woman who served the food was arrogant & disrepectful. We reported & file a complaint to the manager. The hotel location is convenient to us since its very near to the clinic where my child has a schedule check-up. Also, its near to other tourist place like Ocean Park, etc.

Our stay with harbourview intl house is one of the best...We only booked for a standard room, but we were given a seaview room without an extra charge...we were also given an extra bed without extra charge...we'll definitely come back on our next visit to hongkong. Booking with hotel travel is also very efficient..this is our third time to use hotel travel and we will definitely book with you with our next trips to come..keep up the good work...

Nice central location at an affordable price. Perfect place to stay if you are attending an event at the HK Convention Center. Concierge and reception staff were very helpful. My only complaint is the cramped bathroom.
