My first stay at this hotel. The TKO Holiday Inn was sold off to another brand. 30 day stay..about 300 HKD from the airport via taxi, 40 min or so. check in was very easy and fast. room was very clean and typical of a IHG hotel. Wifi was good, shower amazing. breakfast buffet is good but if your on a long stay it gets a little boring. Laundry is on the 7th floor. 55 HKD for wash and 55HKD to dry. You buy tokens at the front desk. MTR is abut a 10 min walk. Kwung tung is off the the tourist area so english menus are hard to find if you eat local. The malls are easier in this regard. NIce area to walk and explore. Marine boardwalk is a few blocks away. I would stay and will stay here again. pros: staff, showers, wifi cons: buffet gets boring after 7 days

I stayed at this hotel twice, and I found that the staff's handling greatly influenced my experience. During my first stay, the front desk officer proactively gave us six cans of complimentary drinks as a gift for being a member, without us even asking. The staff member managing the buffet breakfast was extremely diligent, clearing dishes from the tables promptly and still managing to greet incoming guests and arrange seating for them. However, during my second stay, the staff seemed less attentive. Upon check-in, he gave us two keys without noticing our request for a room near the elevator. When I asked for the two cans we missed during check-out, the staff member handed me only one. The disparity in staff performance was too evident to ignore. Disappointingly, the attentive male staff stationed at the buffet breakfast during my first stay was replaced by three staff members – two females and a male – during my second visit. The two female staff members chatted more than they worked, resulting in our dishes remaining on the table for an extended period. They only prepared to clear our table upon our leaving. Additionally, I accidentally left three bottles in the bathroom, including facial cleaner and two massage oils. I knew the chances of retrieving them were slim, as it would depend on the attentiveness of the cleaning staff. In this case, I could only assume they weren't careful enough. The hotel left a positive impression on me with its inclusion of C2 and USB ports in the rooms. The room design was comfortable and cozy, which added to my overall satisfaction. However, installing transparent bottles in the bathroom could help with timely refilling of liquids. I have stayed at two other Holiday Inn Express locations, namely Causeway Bay and Tseung Kwan O, and this one has been the best experience so far. The only downside was that the variety of breakfast options was not as extensive as the one at the Tseung Kwan O location. …

They will call and ask whether you need housekeeping while putting up DO NOT DISTURB sign, if you don't put up the sign housekeeping will knock the door. While their true intention is to hope for the room be regularly inspected, they should at least think of respecting the disturbance on the guest. Their management have no regrets whatsoever on this, while being polite but still deliberately calling after request. Most IHG properties will only slip a paper under the door while putting up DND sign. I heard somebody told me if you accidentally unplug the phone they will still come up to knock the door pretending to concern about your safety. Overall if it is not because of the location being far away from tourist spots making it cheaper, basically will not consider this hotel.

Pros: 1. Close to Kwun Tong station and promenade 2. The cleaning lady on my floor (26) is very warm and polite 3. The room is quite efficiently designed and spacious by HK standard Cons: a. I had takeaway for breakfast as I have amber code during my staying, but the staff was quite clueless when I mentioned I am a vegetarian. They need to be better trained for the dietary restrictions. b. No gym in the hotel though I managed to go jogging at the promenade. c. The neighborhood is not particularly pleasant. Still the old district to be developed.

If you're looking for a mid priced hotel that includes buffet breakfast this is the place. They have a Autumn promotion that gives you a free room upgrade and late checkout until 3pm. If you are a IHG member you can earn points towards your next stay too. Room was small but clean. Service was upbeat and the staff were helpful whenever you required help Decent hotel choice if you're looking for a place to stay in Kowloon side

I stayed here with a friend for 3 night pre cruise. It’s a very clean smart hotel with helpful efficient staff. There is an MRT station nearby which makes travelling around easy. It’s also near a large shopping mall which offers plenty food options. Breakfast was fine if a little repetitive and on our last day the toaster wasn’t there! Our only complaint would be the glass wall between the bathroom and bedroom. If someone used the bathroom during the night and switched on the light the bedroom was also lit up. Poor design.

Stayed here for just over 8 nights as I was travelling to Hong Kong to attend my best friends wedding there. Chose this hotel because of the location and the fact you had breakfast included. Location was not really very touristy but I enjoyed it there was enough to enjoy and so during the day. Breakfasts were Asian and Western inspired and I enjoyed them, they did get a little repetitive but what they did offer was tasty and the strong tea was a bonus for me. Room was clean and met all my needs. Shower fantastic and bathroom high spec. Bed a touch on the hard side but not an issue. Housekeeping immaculate. Loved the Sky Garden, an excellent feature for enjoying a break. Only thing I would like to see would be a bar serving drinks and snacks as I know the restaurant closes and doesn’t offer this but there are bars close by if you choose this. Have to say ALL staff were really helpful and nothing was too much trouble at all. We needed taxis arranging on a few occasions and this was never an issue and arranged quickly and efficiently. Loved the fact we got a letter from staff member Rainbow and it included vouchers for coffee and cakes at the Pacific Coffee over the road which we used and they were tasty indeed - thank you Rainbow. I really would like to return to Hong Kong in the near future. It was an unforgettable experience. If I do I will seriously consider returning to this hotel it was brilliant. Thank you to all the staff for your hospitality and making our stay so pleasant. You are all stars!!!!…

I had to make a last minute overnight stay in the vicinity. Location wise it is within walking distance of Kwun Tong MTR station, although the entrance is a bit difficult to find. The reception service was quick and efficient. The room was very modern and very clean. One thing I did like about the room was that the shower was equipped with a wall dispenser for body wash. So no more little plastic bottles that are harmful to the environment. The only disappointing part of the stay was the breakfast. It is complimentary but the buffet variety was limited and the quality fair.
