Very small rooms BUT very cheap. If you ONLY need a place to sleep in, this should be good”
Stayed here for the 2nd time. 1st one was June 2018 and the most recent one’s just last week (Dec 4-6, 2019). I chose this place because it is very very cheap! And the frontdesk is filipina so she can help you around :) The room. Its very small I tell you. If you are claustrophobic, then this is not for you. You barely have space to walk in inside your room. But if you arent and youre on a budget, this will really really do! Room has both AC and fan, a side table, a TV, slippers, vault, towels, hair dryer, mirror and ur own bathroom. Bathroom has shower gel and shampoo so you dont need to bring any. Just bring your toothbrush and tooth paste cause they dont provide any. Bathroom is also very very very small. But again, VERY cheap. So this should be good. I only paid 1,900 pesos for 3 nights 😅 Owner is a kinda old that’s why he seems annoyed all the time but well, he is nice too sometimes 😊 but again, with the help of the filipina receptionist, you’ll be fine. This hotel is located in tsim sha tsui. So from the airport, just ride the a21 bus (17 hkd) and get off at middle rd. I think its stop 15. Just remember middle road ok 😊 once you get off, look to your left and walk towards that direction (meaning you’ll go back. Do not follow the direction of the bus youre from. Go the opposite way) and then walk for like a minute or two and you’ll see chungking mansions on your right. Inside, you’ll see A LOT of money exchange. Have your money exchanged here because they have the best rates! Just pick any. They are all almost the same. Then wak towards the end of the building. You’ll see a lot of elevators but don’t go in it. You have to reach the end and use the last elevator u’ll see because Philippine hostel is in Block C. The ONLY elevator u can use it the very last one. Use the elevator on the RIGHT (it serves odd numbered floors) choose floor # 13, once u reach the hallway, go RIGHT and the last door is the hotel :) they ask for 100HKD deposit which will be returne

Great Value for money”
Place is clean, they change towels daily. hot water, blowdrier and airconditioned room with tv a fridge and a safe box waht else can u ask for. Elevator queue is not that long. wifi good, place is near the subway mtr station. If your from the airport just ride an airport express (you need an octopus card for this, available at mtr customer service inside the airport) to tsing yi, from tsing yi (yellow) ride an mtr to lai king (red) going to tsim sha tsui exit to Nathan road. Accross the road is the Chungking mansion building, inside chunking look for elevator C. For the price its worth it. rooms are spacious not that small not too big. Thanks Mr and Mrs Singh for making our Hongkong trip worthwhile.

HKG on a Budget”
Philippine Hostel is good for travelers who aren’t that fastidious. It is located in Chungking Mansion where there are Indians who will suddenly approach you to sell disneyland, ocean park, etc. If you are patient and are used to living in a small room then this is for you. Receptionist (who is a Filipino) and Mr. Singh are very courteous. Room is cleaned daily and towels are changed regularly. All in all, it was a great experience. Will book here again the next time I go to Hongkong.

SO SO LAH”
just stay for one night , the location is good, but the room is very very small, of course if you just stay for one night with limited budget, it is ok. also we have been changed to another hostel since the staff said that the philippine hostel was full, if you mind of this, better u changed another hotel lah

Friendly staff, ”
I booked a single room, but got a double, it’s Hong Kong and very few tourists, prices are down. Good selection of toiletries, but had to ask for towel. A bit above average, for in Chungking Mansions

Affordable & Nice Experience”
The staff in this hostel are very accommodating. When I booked it, I also send a confirmation letter to the owner for assurance and he immediately make a reply on it. Thanx Mr. Sunny. The attendant "Che" (not sure with the spelling of her name) is so nice also to speak with us maybe because we are "kababayans" Thanx for attending to our needs. Affordable in a sense it's cheap & the best about it is that it's near everywhere (MTR, Bus Station, Shopping Mall & Food Stall) Regarding cleanliness, the bathroom is clean, towels are changed everyday but with the bedsheets not sure, make some adjustments cause it's a bit smelly & there are some stains on the pillowcase. Overall still I will make a book on my next visit here.

Home away from home 😀”
It's actually our first trip abroad. Mr Singh & Mr Sukhi were very accomodating. The room is clean and the location is very convenient since it's near the MTR, bus stop, 7Eleven stores and some tourist spots; such as The Avenue of Stars and 1881 Heritage. The hostel provides microwave and sells beverages. Mr Sukhi also helped us with directions. Overall, THUMBS UP! 😀👍🏻

Exceptional”
Location is very close to the MTR, rooms are clean and the Filipina Staff Ate Chie is very helpful with our concerns and the owner is nice too, he let us checked in early because we have our 2 year old daughter with us . Though the rooms are small it is clean and well maintained. The building ( Chungking Mansion ) has a lot of money changers on the ground floor, huge selection of Indian food, though there are many negative reviews on this building but I can only say that it is only in the front area where the problem really lies, but it wasnt as bad as people made it out to be. But overall our family had a nice and comfortable stay.

Recommendable . to all practical traveller”
Walking distance to different transportation and business center, shopping mall, especially to and from the HKG international airport ( walking as a form of exercise l is good for the lheart) If I may suggest, a small note showing directional diagram from this place to the diffferent tourist spot area would be helpful for fast and easy way to go around the city in English/ Chinese / etc character ( although WI FI is available for searching direction/maps) Kindly fix loose doorknobs for safety . Overall, thumbs up! Thank you very much! (Kindly NOT to post my email add / nor any personal info in your review , , thank you so much))

You get what you paid for. ”
Got this for a very cheap price due to the sale. Not the room that I booked. Had a few request like a double bed but it wasn’t given. But it’s okay. Very good location. And I was just only there for 5 hrs per day.

Nice and friendly staff”
We stayed here for one night my friends and with our children. I can say that the area nathan road is quite an ideal place to stay since everything u need is here. It's just quite scary for little ones since chungking mansion is too crowded and the men are quite overwhelming.. And the lift!! Oh my. If im not mistaken only 4 people can enter plus the luggage. So expect very long line of people waiting. And our hotel is on the 17th floor. Lift is only up to 15th floor so we just have to take the stairs to 2 floors. And there was a time, due to the delay of the lift, we took the stairs going down ( did i mentioned we have kids with us!) Anyway, about the room, it is quite nice and comfortable only it is quite small. Hot and cold facility. Towels, and thermos and mic. Oven is available right outside our door. The indians who own the hotel are very helpful and accomodating. They provide us what we need.

Great little please with great staff! ”
Great little please with great staff! Let me drop my bags early as I rocked up at 9am. Did try to change my room but when I said I thought it was smaller they didn’t fuss! And gave me the original one. Let me leave my bags when I checked out too.. value for money rating is only because it’s hk! Nothing’s value for money when it comes to getting a room. Great place. Great stay!

Good place for the price”
The place is very convenient and very easy to reach from the airport. The location is few walks away from the bus stop and MTR. If you’re on a budget trip, this one is a good choice because there are many cheap places to eat around the guest house. The staff and owner are also nice and accomodating.

Won't recommend the hostel”
We were booked at the Philippine Hostel (Block C) and was transferred without any notice to Southeast Asia Guesthouse (Block D) with no available receptionist or at least on schedule. We asked for connecting rooms and unfortunately what they meant by it was rooms inside one apartment which was converted into 7 rooms. The Indian crew assigned to said Guesthouse did not give us enough towels on the first 2 days and intentionally did not leave towels, toilet paper and toothbrushes on the remaining days. He fixed but did not change the beddings on the first 2 days and did not do so on the remaining days. Only 2 elevators serviced each block and there was no queuing system. When you complain you have to go to Block C which was a feat in itself. The ground floor of Chungking Mansions was dirty. Only the location was very very ideal.
