    The actual room looks quite worn down/ faded compared to the photographs.

    The spaciousness of the room and the bathroom areas. The location to Central's historic landmarks and party places but get ready to take an uphill walk when going back to your hotel at the end of the day. It's good that Uber recognizes this pick up location.

    Fridge is not cold. Some of the lights not working. Limited ventilation in bathroom made it a bit steamy. Curtain controls not working, disconnected.

    Hassel Free experience, the staff were super helpful and catered to our needs. Close to the botanical gardens and zoo. Excellent workout going up the stairs from Central shopping.

    The rooms could be renovated. Also, you need to be aware that the restaurant serves only vegetarian dishes. That’s probably it)

    I really liked the staff, everyone was very helpful and friendly. I also liked the location, some of the best bars and restaurants are nearby. What you need to consider is the fact that the hotel is located on the hill, so you’ll need to go up to get there. Despite the fact that the hotel is not new, our room had a lot of nice stuff, like free snacks, Alexa speaker etc. The bed was comfortable, the room has a desk (which was really important coz I had to work). Overall, the hotel was very good.

    The pictures make it look like a bigger place than it is. There was a lot of noise from the clubs downstairs, like deep bass you can hear till at least 4:00am. Not ideal. Price was very high. No gym.

    The hotel is super well located and the rooms are modern. Shower is amazing with lots of water pressure. Pretty big room for Hong Kong standards.

    The amneties are very basic, the bathroom has no window, just an airfan which communicates with the exterior and cannot be closed. The rooms seem a little bit old and are very small.

    The position. Super central (as it’s stated in the name of thr hotel). Even though it’s very central, the rooms are very well noise insulated, and there are only 2 per floor.

    Nothing.

    The hotel is conveniently located for most activities on Hong Kong Island. The room itself was very clean and clear catered to Western clientele as there were Western toilets and hand soap in the bathroom. The bed was nice and soft, and it was nice that they allowed us to empty the minibar once free of charge. The staff was also kind and very helpful when we had questions or requests.

    A really good mid priced hotel in a good location. I would recommend it!

    Even though there were many lighting options in my room (by the bed, by the mini bar in the cupboard) I felt like at times I needed stronger lights. The TV choices really bothered me. Not many options for English speakers and the package they are signed up to show repeats after repeats ....in 5 days I flicked past the same shows many times. The other thing is I personally would have liked bigger bath towels but perhaps that is a cultural thing.

    The room I had was recently refurbished and I could tell they'd put thought into fitting it out. The mini bar was stocked, the black out blinds were good. The bathroom was nicely appointed and the shower was excellent. The bed was super comfortable. The location was good, lots of restaurants, a short walk to the Central shopping area. The little restaurant downstairs was nice with good vegetarian and vegan options and lovelt staff. The front desk staff were always very friendly and helpful.

    I was on the 6th floor and it was a little loud given I was staying Fri/Sat was understandable and solved with ear plugs.

    Excellent location, really lovely features and the inclusion of the mini bar was a great touch. I loved the breakfast options at Veda. Look forward to returning and will recommend to visitors of HK.

    The light switches were confusing in the room. We would've appreciated an option for just new water bottles/coffee every day instead of needing to request a full room clean when we wanted water. We can easily be green and go 4 days with the same towels.

    We liked the room, the setup was nice and comfortable. The location was great for both MTR transit, bus and walking on Hong Kong side. The staff were friendly and we appreciated that we could keep our luggage even after checkout.
