Hostels in Hong Kong, China

"Facilities: The facilities are excellent. Even though it's an eight-person room, there are two toilets, so there's no pressure during peak hours. The bunk beds are convenient, and the air conditioning is cool. Everyone was very considerate, and it was quiet at night. Cleanliness: Both the toilets and the room were very clean. Environment: The environment is great. Mei Ho House is a large complex with a youth activity area in addition to the rooms, and there are free exhibitions to see. Service: The service is very good, and you can store your luggage for free."

"Overall, a pretty good experience, especially for students on a budget who don't want to travel back to Shenzhen for the night. The common areas offer cups, drinking water, and hot water, plus free WiFi and universal adapters. Each bed comes with sockets that can accommodate both 2-pin and 3-pin Chinese plugs. If you have any issues, the handsome owner is always quick to respond! ❤️ The location is also easy to find, very close to Jordan MTR station and in the bustling Yau Tsim Mong district. Temple Street is right downstairs with lots of delicious food, and many old local eateries nearby are tasty and affordable. 😋"

"This hotel is located in Mirador Mansion, right next to Chungking Mansions, making it very convenient for getting around. It seems to be run by a martial arts studio. For tourists who spend all day exploring and just need a place to shower, charge their devices, and sleep at night, it's perfectly sufficient. It has a private bathroom and air conditioning, and it's quieter and easier to sleep in than a typical hostel. Just remember to bring your own disposables like bath towels and slippers, and a universal adapter. It's a great value-for-money option for an overnight stay in Tsim Sha Tsui."

"The location is fantastic! Ancasa Hotel is right across from Kowloon Park, on Tsim Sha Tsui's main thoroughfare. But then again, nothing in Hong Kong is really far. On the day of check-in, the hotel sends room and password details via Trip.com. If the front desk isn't staffed at night, you can self-check-in. All rooms have keypads. The soundproofing is decent. I woke up in the middle of the night and heard two men chatting right outside my door... even with the door closed, I could still hear a little, but they stopped making noise later. The bathroom is shared, with two shower stalls and two toilets, and three sinks. It's shared by two rooms, and I never had to wait. Honestly, the occupancy rate of shared bathrooms in mixed-gender hostels seems to be lower. 😂 There are bed curtains, but you need to bring your own UK adapter. No drinking water is provided. The view from the room window is quite nice."

"Quite unique for HK, this is an actual youth hostel with a reception and a lobby and a friendly staff : ) it presents relatively tidy and spacious dorms, a convenient luggage storage, and a location close to most essential public transport options like bus and metro and high speed rail. Food in the neighborhood is a variety of local and foreign (from roast duck to malay and mcdonalds) and the area in general is a good starting point for a city trip to Hong Kong with popular areas like Sham Shui Po at walking distance and a nice cinema around the corner. Highly recommended."

"Location: Taking the A11 bus from the airport costs just over 40 HKD and drops you right downstairs. There's a Mannings downstairs, perfect for some shopping. Causeway Bay is also only one or two bus stops away. Facilities: Even the dorm rooms maintain good hygiene. The common areas are great for some quiet time or as a spot to meet and chat with other travelers. There's also complimentary coffee. Service: Besides being a backpacker hostel, they also offer tickets to some unique bars. You can book them at the front desk."

"This was my first time staying in a hostel, and even though I was in a twin room rather than a bunk bed, I still experienced a wonderful sense of community. Before checking in, a car accident on the way to Shenzhen Bay Port caused a nearly three-hour traffic jam, making me miss the hostel's stated latest check-in time and the shuttle bus. So, I had to walk up the hill. However, after communicating with the staff that evening, they still waited for us and very warmly helped us check in and explained the hostel facilities. (P.S. When we mentioned to the front desk staff that a taxi had refused to take us up the mountain, two aunties expressed their sympathy and pointed out that Hong Kong drivers shouldn't do that and that we could file a complaint. They advised that next time, we should get in the taxi first before stating our destination to avoid such issues. Although one of the aunties spoke Cantonese, which I didn't fully understand at first, her demeanor showed she was definitely a kind person). The hostel room's outlets came with both Type-C and USB ports, which was incredibly convenient for travelers from mainland China. The hostel's view is also exceptional. At night, you can see the Victoria Harbour skyline, and from a distance, you can even catch a glimpse of Disneyland's fireworks (unfortunately, it rained that day so I didn't see them). The facilities are also very comprehensive. If you're hungry, you can cook something in the restaurant yourself (just remember to wash up afterward). Although the toilets and showers are shared, the privacy is well-maintained. There are a few tables in the open-air plaza, where social guests can experience hostel culture, and if the weather's good, people often play board games there. If I ever visit Hong Kong again, this hostel will definitely be my first choice. When leaving, the same warm auntie who helped us check in bid us farewell and invited us to return, bringing the experience full circle. I'm so glad my first hostel experience was with this place, and I'm very grateful for the excellent stay it provided."

"I had a pleasant, quiet, and comfortable stay for two nights. The owner was kind to let me check in early and got me acquainted with the interesting spaces within the hostel. The amenities nearby served me well - ＜10 mins walk to the nearest train station, a supermarket across the road, and some eateries. Highly recommended for solo and/or female travellers."

"Very convenient location near the subway, there's a 7/11 aroundthe corner and many restaurants to choose from. The bed was great but lacked a pillow and even if it was 30°C outside the room didn't feel too hot. The showers were ok but it's difficult to close the doors. Late check-in was accepted after communication on wechat. Slippers are available. Overall a great experience, would book again."

"Depends on your purpose for visiting this area, you may or may not find this hostel convenient. I chose this hostel solely because I planned to check out Tai O and do an early morning hike up Lantau Peak. There’s actually not much in the area except the Giant Buddha, the beautiful monastery, and the Wisdom Path if you choose to include it. This is the only hotel/hostel in the area. There’s no supermarket or convenience store nearby, so I highly suggest bringing plenty of food and drinks before arriving. You might also want to bring your own slippers! The hostel has a water purifier, hot and cold showers, a microwave, fridge, a spacious kitchen, and other essentials. I didn’t cook during my stay—I bought food from Tai O instead. Nonetheless, it was super convenient for me since I like to go slow and enjoy things at my own pace. Note that a membership fee of 150 HKD is required, and there’s also a refundable deposit of 500 HKD, unless you damage something on the property. Karen and Mark were super nice—I had a great chat with both of them!"
