This place is incredibly cheap and conveniently located. It was clean enough and everything works. However the pictures do not depict the room. We had no window, the toilet cistern had no lid, to flush you have to put your hand in the cistern, certainly unique. Beds were on the firm side, but surprisingly comfortable. Aircon and fan were very good. Very efficient due to the room being so small. The one lift is small, slow and a bit clunky, but less busy than other lifts in the mansion. It remained operational for our entire stay, which was nice. Staff are functional. Located in the lively, infamous, decaying Chungking Mansions, This place is perfect if you are on a tight budget, but not if you are of a nervous disposition or claustrophobic.

Please stay in formal 4 stars or above hotel instead of guest house in Hong Kong. All the 2 or 3 stars hotel in Hong Kong are super small size even though location are ok. Trust me and you will feel shock when you saw the room condition, the hygiene are very poor.

Shocking checkin and 1st night

I was choosing this hotel because of its location and it is really good, but what happened to me during the checkin was a nightmare. I wrote to the hotel that I am coming in midnight when I was given the key and opened the door I was lost in my words it was literally CRAP! Everything is completely outdated, worn out, dirty. I Asked receptionist to call the manager immediately. the manager called Singh was absolutely rude and instead of solving the problem he started to shout at me offering to get the refund and leave the hotel and it was the middle of the night!!! it was the second wave of shocking experience! He explained to me that what I saw in the pictures was only a few photographs from one or two rooms which they have the rest is all like this when I ask him why didn’t he put the pictures of the bedrooms he said there was not enough space on Expedia profile I realized there was A different logic I couldn’t comprehend as well as cheating the customer! finally we agreed that the next morning they are changing the room to the one which I actually have seen when I was booking it not what I see right now in front of me. From the day one I was living in a nice room similar to what was presented on the website. Expedia should take immediate action to investigate this case and not allow this to happen again to anyone!

英語がなかなか通じず、チェックインが大変でした。 2泊3日だったのですが、ホテルに帰ってきたら清掃もタオル交換もシーツ取り換えもされていなくて2日間同じ物を使いました。 場所だけでホテルを判断してはいけないなと学びました。

「フィリピーネ ホステル」という建物はありません。「重慶大厦」という雑居ビルの一角が、「フィリピーネ ホステル」です。「重慶大厦」が建てられたのは、60年以上前です。中は、5棟の複合ビルなので、迷路のようになっています。エレベータがそれぞれの棟に２台ずつあり、奇数階のエレベータと、偶数階のエレベータに分かれています。 フロントは、C棟の、13階の、C-4の部屋を探してください。よく見ると、テンキーが壁に付いていて、そのボタンを押すと呼び鈴が鳴り、ドアを開けてくれます。フロントの人はとても親切です。デポジットとして100ドルを預けます。また清掃費用を請求されます。実際は、チェックアウトの際に、デポジットから清掃費を引かれた金額が戻ってきます。 しかし、私の部屋は、C棟の、13階ではありませんでした。D棟の、5階だと告げられました。そうした経緯があり、チェックインに30分ほど掛かりました。 部屋は、タオルもシャンプーもあり、シーツも洗われてセッティングされていました。ただ、この値段ですから、ホテルのような設備を期待しない方がいいです。私は3泊しましたが、本当に深夜に帰ってきて寝るだけなので、コストパフォーマンスを考えれば、この選択も悪くなかったと思っています。

Not Recommended , Unsafe to Travellers

4 nights booked non refundable and only stayed here for 7 hours. The queue to a sardine like, jampcked elevator was not a welcoming experience for first time travellers to Hongkong. Chungking Mansion is made of several hostels and Philippine Hostel is one of them. There are only two elevators for a very busy building so wait time to get into the the lift is about 15 minutes. I checked in, was surprised to find the corridors so narrow where I struggled rolling and fitting my 20 kg size luggage. I could not close the door of the reception area because the space between I and my bags and the reception desk was pretty small. The front desk service was okay except for a lady behind the front desk personnel lying down playing with her phone. Seeing that was not a good sign. I entered my room whixh is deluxe double and was frustratingly agitated at what I have seen. No walk path around the bed. the bed was fitted between the walls of the comfort room and the room walls. The only space is between the edge of the bed and our room’s door which is about 1 meter space to the bathroom. So we do not have a space for our luggages except for a very tight space under the bed that can accommodate one 20 kilo luggage, Only 1 person can do one thing at a time because of lack of space. The toilet- very tiny and no shower area apart from the little space from which you literally walk in from the door. When i showered, water dripped into the bedroom floor. Not recommended at all, unsafe!

Smelled, room was not as per photos in brochure.

Nothing good to say about the room or the hostel. Small room even for a hostel, smelled of something I can’t describe. The room as advertised was a photo shoot from some other hotel or room. The actual room, the bed was in the corner of the room. A small door space to get onto the bed and good for one person only. Cramped for two people to stay in, no room to move, no windows. Not an enjoyable experience in this place. Could not get key deposit back as nobody manning reception at 9am in morning when had to go.

どこに出掛けるにもアクセスが良く 、室内も清潔でスタッフも親切でした。重慶マンション自体には2回目の滞在でしたが、今回も安心できる宿でした。エレベーターはCの右側に乗り、13階で降ります。他のエレベーターでは当宿のフロアに行けません。チェックイン時にルームキーの保証費として100香港ドルが必要です。チェックアウト時に返金してくれます。 シングルの部屋は、作り付けのベッド、トイレ、洗面台、シャワー、エアコン、扇風機、ドライヤー、金庫がありました。廊下には、共同の冷蔵庫、電子レンジ、電気ポットがあります。毎日ベットメイキングしてくれるので助かります。 チェックインは13:30からできますが、部屋には夕方以降しか入れません。荷物を預けて観光して帰ってくると、部屋に荷物を入れておいてくれます。宿の入り口は電子キーで24時間スタッフが受付にいてくれます。部屋は普通のドアの鍵です。 注意としては、あくまで大都会のど真ん中で一泊3,000円程度の安宿で、ビジネスホテル程のものではないので、その辺り留意が必要です。 また利用したいと思っています。
