Some hotel staff just directly opened my door with her key card while I was changing and had no time to answer the bell. This is really shocking, I just can’t believe someone will just enter my room like that! What if it was a male staff?? I was changing my clothes!! And the staff just leave without any apology.. she was going to check the room cleaning service but this is absolutely terrifying when I give it a second thought….

The light of the panel control cannot be separately control. I'm personally hate to swithed off all my light when I went to bed at any place, due to lack of security. However, the control panel couldn't control one light specifically. My sleeping experiences for the last couple of nights weren't good. So the lighting needed to be check, if the hotel so called themselves or mentioned to the rest of the hotel declared they are SMART hotel.

The showering system was hardly to be used. The instructions weren't clear enough. The colour sign of the shower weren't clearly seen during shower, because of the steam and the drips of water. The water pressure of the massage mode wasn't that much enough. Could be designed with real situations and better customer experience.

May I mention if the hotel due to the environmental protection and not providing tissue in the resting room instead of washroom.

Also the scanners of the elevators and door lock weren't that sensitive.

The room smart TV couldn't project and mirroring my SmartPhone screen directly instead of using other app and the instructions of the teaching in TV weren't that clear, also couldn't be paused. Could be designed better.

Choosing a hotel during the pandemic, I highly consider hygiene. For my long stay, comfort and design are key. Alva has them all. What’s more is its location with 2 subway stations and numerous bus lines to Kowloon and the Island, as well as the mountains, rivers and bridges. Most unique of all is its green and healthy lifestyles – central water dispensers replacing plastic bottles, free bike rentals for cycling along the river, spacious lobby and social lounge… have made my long stay feeling short and enjoyable. Last and most appreciative of all is the professional and hospitable service of the staff team. I highly recommend Alva!

Room tip: Bring your sneakers to enjoy the walk and free bike rental for cycling along the river - must try!

This is our second stay at ALVA Hotel By Royal Hong Kong. Special thanks to Leo Cham as he offered us free upgrade to suite during our check-in for both Sep and Oct stays, as a motivation for my 5 years old daughter primary school interviews. The suite is huge with living room, and we do enjoy very much on the beautiful river and mountain views. The overall experience is wonderful and this comfy environment really helps my daughter to perform at her best during the interviews. Leo, your dedicated services and heart warming arrangement are highly appreciated. Thank you :)
