Comfortable, but pricey

shower, bed, location
6.7
I enjoyed my stay, it was pricey but in HK all accommodation is. The hotel was very well decorated and trendy looking, quite conspicuous sat in amongst a lot of dried seafood vendors (which can smell at times). The location was fine; a 3 minute or less walk from the MTR (Island Line), a 1 minute walk to the 'ding ding' (tram) and 1 minute from any buses or taxis. if you're interested in temples, antiques or history the hotel is in a great place to start exploring some of HK's more interesting aspects; Just grab a map and guide from the hotel lobby and head towards 'Ladder St' and finish up at a bar/restaurant on Hollywood road. It's also a minute from Des Vouex Rd, which has all the food and shopping you could need with a little stroll along!! The room was kind of dusty, and a little humid, beware of this if you're asthmatic. Had a good selection of TV channels and the free wifi was topnotch. The shower was great and welcome with the dense, dirty air in HK. No need to bring your own toothbrush, soap or shampoo! Air conditioned with your own controls to make it suit you. Plenty of storage space and a hairdryer. Breakfast was a little weak, being a hot Pain au Raisin and a Croissant with your choice of drink delivered to your room (cue a lot of fumbling around and "dan yat chan, mgoi!" from jetlagged, glasses removed and undressed male) - it was not unpleasant though. Staff were great, but the small size of the lobby made each entry and exit a greeted affair. I guess this could be uncomfortable for some people, fine by me. Nobody complained that I cleaned and dried my muddy climbing boots in the shower. All tolled; it is a great hotel for a walker and sightseer like myself, I would stay there again... especially if they lowered the price slightly. But if you dislike walking and being 'in with the locals' (I loved waking up as part of a working, living city) , I wouldn't recommend this part of town.

I never like to comment on my stay in the hotel however this time i must really write a review for this hotel. This Sohotel is a great place to stay if you are looking for a budget hotel with clean environment with helpful staff in there. They provide free umbrella for us when is raining without any cost. Which other hotel would provide for free? The location is easily to be found. Even in the Mrt station has their hotel direction.*thumbs up* It would be in full rating if the room is bigger a little bit more.

conveniently located, but furnishing is minimal

in the heart of Sheung Wan, super professional staff

The staff is fantastic, no matter what time of the day. They speak solid English, even though I conversed with them mostly in Cantonese. Very professional and always attentive to your every need. The hotel is only about a 5-10 minute walk from the Sheung Wan station--which is why I picked it. The room itself, however, was not worth the amount I paid for. Even though it was a superior, it felt so cramped. And I've been to many HK hotels and expect small. The room is clean, but it's furnished with practically nothing. Just some slippers, basic toiletries, a safe, and some hangers. There isn't even a water kettle, which is very standard in any hotel in Asia. The beds were okay, not too firm like some HK hotels. Small, but comfortable.

Good service, location and reasonable price

walking distance from sheung wan MTR, near some good local famous restaurant, provide good quality breakfast to our room every morning although everyday is the same style. room is a little bit too small but ok for single or couple tourists. i will suggest hotel to change their daliy menu for breakfast because four days with same types breakfast are boring. overall this hotel staffs are nice, will consider to stay again.

Small and too far on foot from Sheung Wan station

Fast internet, friendly staff, English language skill

I would saw that the Sohotel is a nice enough place, though the rooms are absolutely tiny compared to other places I've stayed on Hong Kong Island before. It's quite a hike from Sheung Wan station, not close enough if you're carrying luggage and taxi drivers didn't seem to know the name of the hotel making it difficult also to get a taxi there.

a hotel on the japanese model - the room is very small, no where to hang clothes for instance, but everything you need in a very small space, bathroom likewise. the only breakfast is a croissant + tea or coffee delivered to the room. good if you intend to spend as little time as possible in the hotel, but very crowded if there are 2 of you. I had a double room and it was barely big enough for me. Location great 5 minutes from Sheung Wan metro and near the tram stops. You can walk to central + the ferry piers over the high walkways through the Macao ferry terminal by Western Market.
