The Charterhouse Causeway Bay Hotel is absolutely incredible! Few hotels in Hong Kong offer as many advantages and attractions as The Charterhouse, especially at such an unreal and unbeatable price! Whatever your purpose ~ business, pleasure, tourism, shopping & food, etc ~ you will find The Charterhouse's location to be remarkably strategic ~ everything you want and need, right at your fingertips! Please allow me to take you now on a quick tour, beginning inside The Charterhouse, then moving outward into our beloved, fascinating Hong Kong! Your room speaks warmly of cozy Old English ~ refreshingly high ceilings; rustic, rounded, wooden desk & cabinets; and a varnished bedside table & nightstand. Tasteful ivory-colored, gold-brimmed lamps abound, so that your choices of lighting are plentiful as they are beautiful. Your room's walls are thick & guarded, ideal for privacy and quiet reflection. In fact, with the drapes shut and the lights out, nothing could make for better shut-eye! As for your view: one large window, robed with sheer curtains and heavy drapes, awaits your advance. Undress it before the southern exposure, and behold: Hong Kong's stunning, precipitous mountains, all punctuated by buildings of enthralling variety and dimension! And get ready for the night: this intriguing display turns luminously intoxicating ~ almost other-worldly! And as for the mountains: clad thickly with jungle and secret trails, they reach bravely into heavenly heights, where gentle mists, wandering clouds, and island breeze drift lazily over ridge and peak, hailing from such choice getaways as Stanley Market, Deep Water Bay, and Shek O. Exiting your room, you will find literally all the hotel staff to be unbelievably exceptional ~ from the housekeeping staff, to the front desk and management crew (level three), to the concierge attendants below (ground level)! Exit The Charterhouse, and immediately to your right is a key, strategic bus stop, which facilitates quick arrival to coveted destinations and areas throughout Hong Kong Island! Pacific Place Shopping Centre is one such place, and its comprehensive, international supermarket, Great Food Hall (Basement level 1~ includes dine-in & dine-out options) is something you certainly don't want to miss out on! A mere seven-minute stroll from The Charterhouse will take you to Hong Kong's Happy Valley Racecourse, where you can conveniently catch busses to such charming places as Stanley Market, Ocean Park, and Central's Mid~Levels (home to countless restaurant-, cuisine- and cafe-choices)! Incidentally, Times Square, Sogo, the HK Island trams, and Victoria Park (including its inviting marina & boardwalk), are also just within minutes' walking distance from The Charterhouse! A similar length's walk in the other direction will take you to the Wan Chai MTR, and just beyond that, to the Wan Chai Ferry! A delightful, scenic 10-min ferry ride across the Victoria Harbour is all it takes to get you to HK's famous waterfront promenade, Avenue of Stars ~ the cool and lively welcoming forefront of Hong Kong's historic Kowloon Peninsula! As for food, cafes, and shopping near The Charterhouse, the variety and number of choices available to you are endless! That being said, you might want to start with Coffee Academics right next door, or perhaps Pacific Coffee just down the way and across the street! 7-Elevens, by the way, are as common here as sparrows! I'd like now to give special thanks to the following Charterhouse staff for daily making me feel at home, especially during this challenging holiday season: at the front desk ~ Chris (Manager), Damon, Anna, Crystal, Connie, Coco, and Brian; of the Housekeeping staff ~ Ava, Feng, and Cola; and of the Concierge attendants ~ Jason, Edmund, Wing, Ming, Ken, Henry, Ben, and Ms. Wong. You all are absolutely wonderful! Thank you so much, and best wishes! Sincerely, Jacob…
Good location. Hotel surrounding was not too interesting, but Time Square and many shopping area public transit just a few min walk away. Where you will find a wild rage of shop and restaurants, hundreds of it. I pick breakfast included room, which is a nice surprise of what they offer for breakfast. They even have free newspaper (1 Chinese and 1 English). Guest room floor hall ways is very narrow. No complaints at all for what I pay for.
Staying at the Charterhouse hotel was a last minute necessity to recover between appointments. Booked online after searching and reading some previous reviews. Reminiscent of the grandeur of a lost era, the omens weren't initially good hearing a customer next to me at reception fume about not being able to charge things to his account and pay for them on checking out. The receptionist who spoke to me politely asked me to wait an hour so they could prepare my room, which they did, but said they'd been able to upgrade my room! It was a twin, very clean, and just what I needed to crash for 3 days. I didn't experience any of the inconveniences I'd read about online (smelly carpets, mould in the bathroom, being woken up unnecessarily). I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Everyone was very polite and helpful. The concierge was able to direct me to a good service laundry closeby. I would definitely recommend it to anyone needing a sanctuary at a moment's notice.…
The hotel was easy to get to, very central, comfortable and clean. Our room was small, but well maintained and had a nice view. They greeted us in a friendly and informative manner. The hotel was reasonably priced.
to be fair, such price in Causeway Bay is very reasonable for the time being. though there are no free coffee and tea, it is totally fine. the service was great. i wanted to check in at 11am bcoz i arrived early. the reception was nice and let me check in early after a mid night flight!
