Good harbor view; next to subway station and major transportations Small room, small beds; narrow corridor, We stayed here because I grew up in this area. The stay was relatively uneventful. Next to the hotel in an alley with a highway above it, there is a small restaurant that serves very good wonton and fishball. Ask for "Qun Gay wonton soup".
Restaurant Tip : see comments above.

close to transport, cheap food around and shopping The room is small but you have enought space to move arround. No stuff in the room for sale that make checkout faster and no argument at the end of the day. Quite location and close to most transport within 5 minutes walk. I like all fast food stalls esp Maxin within 5 min. walk. Since it is so convenient, I will definitely come back within a year. I prefer to have monthly or fortnightly rate for long holiday.
Restaurant Tip : Good and quick fast food from Maxin across the road.

Friendly, respectfuland honest staff
Convenient & Accessible location Friendly and respectful(which is rare in Hongkong and China)and honest staff (I forgot my jewelry worth $1,000 on the dresser in the morning and found it exactly where and how it was when I came home at night)
Convenient location (steps away from MTR, Airport Bus A11 and tram stations)
Accessible to food- market stalls, cheap restaurants, 7-11
Spacious room with a great view for the price(very rare in Hongkong)
Restaurant Tip : Check out market food stalls in the second floor of the market across the hotel. The price is half of that of the restaurants.

Close to train station. Easy access to foods, amenities Photocopy my credit card which I believe is an overkill as I already booked via Agoda. My credit cards details may be compromised due to this event. Internet useage is paid for a whole day if used in the room. Overall a good decent hotel to stay. The room is clean and tidy.Apart from my credit card encounter with the staff, overall the staffs there are polite. The hotel is closed to all amenities and the food around the hotel is reasonable priced. The train station is just minutes from the hotel. If you go to the hotel by train, the train station does not have a lift so travellers with heavy belongings will have some difficulty with the stairs in the train station.

Nice sea view, excellent location - less than 1 minute from MTR Fortress Hill station. 5 - 7 minutes mtr ride to Wan Chai / Central / Causeway Bay - very convenient if you work on HK side. Clean rooms. In-room wired interenet connection works only on particular floors, from 16 to 20. Other floors don't have any.
Wi-fi is not implemented at all.
Small business centre has only 1 working machine, occupied by guests all the time.
It's a problem if your business requires frequent web communications as email, fax, etc..., as mine one does.

Very close to Fortress Hill MTR. Clean reception area. This is an acceptable back-up hotel when other choices are unavailable. Room was as small as it could be and the view was non-existent. No free water in the room. Lighting in the room was a little dull so gave the room a gloomy feeling. Receptionist was polite but not friendly on all occasions. The prices of hotels in HK vary greatly from week to week depending on the events that are happening in the city. This hotel would not be my first choice by any stretch but is an acceptable back-up option if you need somewhere to shower and sleep during the busy/expensive times. It is close to the MTR as thus very accessible to central HK. Broadband cost (HKD80 for 24hrs) are slightly cheaper than other places (normally around HKD120 per 24hrs).

The accessibility of the Hotel to the City center, Tourist spots and Main transports. The food in the hotel needs to be improved. Although, Their choices is good and value for money. Newton Hotel Hongkong is very nice, Its very accessible to the places we wanted to look at. Trams and Tube Train is right at the back of the hotel which is 5/5. I enjoyed the hotel as the staff is very attentive , helpful and very professional. This is a sort of Hotel that you would come back again. They even Help us to re-confirm our flights back to Manila,Philippines.
Im glad I found this hotel in Agoda.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : The Hotel is very accessible to the tube and trams which is only 2 minutes walk. Plenty of food shops and restaurants to choose from around the place. Trams is just 3 minutes walk from the hotel. Everything you need from this hotel is 5/5

Good location
Nice view (sea view) The location is very convenient and very close to MRT (walk distance 3 minutes). Although the room is very small, but the price is quite reasonable for a good location hotel. We got a room with sea view, and it such a beautiful view of Hongkong.

Hotel near MTR and clean. Location is far from shopping center. It is quite convenient as MTR is just at the back of the hotel - the Nortress Hill station, exit to Oil Street. The room is small but clean. I will recommend it to my friends and stay there again when I come back to HKG.

Near the MTR Fortress Hill station, a lot of near by fast food stores (Mcdonalds, Burger King, Oliver's Sandwich, Subway), coffee shop (two starbucks), convenient stores (7-11, mannings, wellcome). Near bus stops and tram stations. The hotel is well situated with fastfoods, convenient stores, and coffee shops around the hotel. There is also a free ride from the hotel to Hongkong airport express stations. Access to the hotel is easy since the hotel is between two tram stops, and a bus stop is near by. Overall, it is a hotel that's worth staying. But the room is small as it can only accommodate 2 persons.
