The Cityview

Hong Kong, Far East

Virgin rating

The hotel

The Cityview knows its audience. In one of the world’s most dynamic metropolises, this urban outpost delivers the slick city styling, high-tech touches, handy hotel features, and ‘centre-of-everything’ location every discerning international traveller’s after. Bang-on-trend, you’re greeted by a living plant wall that sets the tone of this modern downtown Kowloon hotel. While the styling  and international buffet may feel reassuringly familiar, the Cantonese cuisine of The Balcony and Thai tastes of Amazing (served under a plant-draped pergola for that ‘al fresco dining’ feel), give an exciting flavour of the East – one backed up by its location in the entertainment and shopping district, just steps from Yau Ma Tei subway station and near Hong Kong’s famous markets.

The hotel is located very close to Yau Mau Tei MTR, and it’s easy to get to Nathan Road, meaning there’s lots of subway and bus options to get to anywhere else in Hong Kong. There are also many good restaurants nearby (just check Google or OpenRice), and shopping in the surrounding area in Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok. The hotel staff were always cheerful and willing to help. They were very good at keeping our room and the public spaces in the hotel clean. I can recall only two drawbacks in our room. First, there isn’t a large mirror that let’s you see yourself in your outfit. (The bathroom mirror is only good for seeing your face.) Second, the bathroom sink has a low overhanging shelf above it. I had no problems washing my hands but it was awkward to spit in the sink when brushing my teeth. Otherwise the bed was extremely comfortable and there were plenty of outlets and charging ports inside the room. Read less
