Guest Reviews

• Heather (8/5): Budget stay - Compact like most hotels in Hong Kong, room was mostly clean. Was good for the night we needed.
• Sergio (8/5): - The hotel is very clean and well located. The young lady providing housekeeping services is very helpful. The room with a twin size bed is very small, but it is Hong Kong. Only disposable towels are provided. And only hot drinking water and a fridge are available. A/C and hot shower work really well.
• Haider (10/5): - Great overall experience, and great value for money.
• MariaZG1 (4/5): Too Small and not that clean. - Too small and uncomfortable. The building where is located is really ugly and people harass you as you walk in, did not make me feel safe at all. The only good thing is that it was cheap and close to the metro.
• Nelson (8/5): 地點和比價性很棒的賓館 - 地理位置很好，雖然整棟樓裡都是印度還是中東人，但並不真的覺得危險。房間極小但清潔度和價錢都不錯，適合一個人旅行的選擇。
• davidwatson69end (6/5): cheap and central - If you are looking for a budget option and are willing to stay somewhere a little away from the main drag then this is a good choice. This hostel in located in Chungking Mansion on Nathan street. If you are unfamiliar with how mansions in asia work, then this will be a shock to you. It is located in a much larger building that is broken into towers with close to 20 floors. You enter on the ground floor and have to go through crowds of people and businesses to get to the elevator for your tower. This includes many people trying to solicit or sell many different things to you. The chungking mansion in particular is infamous for its age and criminal activity. Keeping this in mind, if you are aware of your surrounding and smart, you will be fine.Our room was very clean and functional with no issues. We shared a triple between two and there was enough room to move about and get ready etc. Compact and basic but I didn't expect anything else. Plenty of food options downstairs, mainly Indian, and a fantastic location with everything else nearby. No issues with lifts.. If you need somewhere cheap and central then I would recommend.
• Dalelushka (8/5): Short Trip - Clean room and accomodating staff Very near the metro, restaurants, mall, supermarket, coffeeshops Very secured with automated lock. With free hot and cold water provided Small room but it’s enough for a good night stay and rest. Chungking Mansion ground floor might a little bit intimidating but everything is in there especially FOREX
• Varang (6/5): อยู่ในย่าน shopping - check in ได้ถึง 11 pm มาช้ามีค่าธรรมเนียม (ซึ่งไม่ทราบมาก่อน) ห้องพักสะอาด แต่แคบ มีน้ำดื่มบริการ มีตู้เย็นกลาง โดยภาพรวมถือว่าสะดวก ลง MTR Tsim Sha Tsui exit E ข้ามถนน ถึง Chunking Mansion เลย
• masa (4/5): 部屋は清潔だけど、従業員がダメ - チェックインの時に、部屋のアップグレードを勧めてきて、追加料金を払わされそうになった。拒否したが、アップグレードするとあてがわれるはずの部屋を与えられた。同じ状況を、他の方も書かれているようですが、恐らく追加料金を支払っても、支払わなくても同じ部屋へ通されると思います。
• racheldB1330VB (6/5): Tight for space but all the amenities - Accommodation in Hong Kong is very expensive and as a solo traveler I was simply looking for somewhere to rest my head which I found in Maple Leaf! Downstairs in Chungking Mansion is very off putting for a girl traveling solo with shop-owners hawking their goods and in your face but once you get to your lift it’s plain sailing! The owner was very pleasant and really helpful! I’d advise ear plugs cause you hear everything but the bed was comfy, WiFi was good and hot water at the ready, what more could you need for a solo break??
• bernadetter896 (8/5): good overnight stay - We were welcomed by a nice lady taking care of the place.The room space was just enough for me and my 4 year old daughter and we had a comfortable overnight stay.There was a good wifi connection as well.This is recommended for a budget travel.
• Mike643922 (10/5): Good choice for budget travel - Yes the place is small, but if you're looking for a budget option and are willing to stay somewhere a little out of the ordinary then this is a good choice. Our room (the triple) was fully clean and functional with no issues. We shared between two and there was enough room to move about and get ready etc. Compact and basic but I didn't expect anything else. Plenty of food options downstairs, mainly Indian, and a fantastic location with everything else nearby. No issues with lifts. You do get hassled relentlessly by Indian guys at the main entrance to Chungking Mansions however you can see it as all part of the fun and the experience of staying there. If you need somewhere cheap and central then I would recommend.
• NaomiF1990 (8/5): Only downside is the entrance - We had no intention to spend much time in our room so having good views and lots of space wasn't high on priorities. Realistically as a backpacker nowhere in Hong Kong is particularly cheap but for a double room on a budget this is the standard. We had air con and our luggage squeezed under our bed. The bathroom was small but had hot running water which wasn't always needed anyway when it was so hot outside! They had a water tank and a fridge which was extremely handy too and saved some money on bottled water! The only downside is the mansion itself is so smelly and full of Indians that will pester you relentlessly on your way in and out. Aside of that the location itself is great for exploring as it is so close to the metro and only a short walk to the ferry terminal!
• Verified traveler (8/5): ロケーションが素晴らしい！ - 従業員の方が日本人慣れしていてとても優しく、英語が流暢でなくても何の問題もありませんでした。Wi-Fiも使えるしトイレもシャワーも設備されているので安心です。
• Losttraveller (4/5): If you buy cheap...you get cheap... - its cheap...so i did not expect much...but having a room without a window and a Kitchen above your room that is working till 4 in the morning is not cheap but unbearable....
• M S Dhillon (6/5): Maple Leaf Guest House - Comfortable and clean budget hotel room with attached toilet. Requires lift access to get to the budget hotel on the 12 floor. Close to the MTR and Jenny's Biscuit outlet.
• 梨 (6/5): 雑多な雰囲気を味わいたい方向け - 概要：重慶大厦、という雑居ビルの中に入っているゲストハウスです。尖沙咀駅から歩いてすぐの場所にあるので利用しました。インド系の方がたくさん住まわれている、ゲストハウスだらけのビルでした。 到着まで：「ホテルの予約するよ～」「SIMカードあるよ～」等々声をかけてきますが、興味のない方は気にせず黙々と歩けば問題ありません。他の方も書かれているように、エレベーターが大変混雑します。奇数階・偶数階と2台に分かれていて、上から下までゲストハウスなので、10階に来るころには満員というのもザラにありました。 チェックイン：優しいおばさんが対応してくれますが、ネットには書かれていないことを要求されました。「静かで臭くない部屋を取ったので一人500円支払って欲しい、他の部屋は良くないので」と言われました。そこまで高い出費でないので支払いましたが、事前に聞いていなかっただけにあまり良い気はしませんでした。 部屋：トランクルームは広げられないです。ベッドと、最低限の足場という感じです。タオルはありませんが、言ったら無料で貸してくれました。ドライヤーは有り、バスローブは無しです。風呂はトイレとほぼゼロ距離なので、濡れるのは覚悟して行ってください。虫等も出なかったので、衛生状況は普通です。 本当に寝るだけ、という方にはお勧めです。
• Gaetan (6/5): Rapport qualité-prix correct. - Rapport qualité-prix correct. Comme prévu, chambre minuscule sans fenêtre, prropre et pratique car située à proximité du métro et des ports de ferry. Toutefois, chambre bruillante car on entend les portes claquer et les gens parler, l'ascenseur est très lent (hôtel au 12e étage de 16 étages) et comme il y a beaucoup de gens dans l'immeuble, il faut l'attendre longtemps, pratique pour le métro et sa localisation centrale mais si vous pouvez loger sur l'île à bon prix, faites-le car plus de choses à visiter, à manger et à noir et le nightlife y est plus intéressant!
• nadrahf2016 (4/5): Cheated. - We booked a double bed room for 6 nights and we arrived just to be informed that our room was occupied. We received a downgraded room instead of a similar or better room. Since most places were fully booked, we decided to just accept the offer (we travel during the lunar season). On the 3rd night of our stay, the personnel suggest that we paid extra 300hkd for the rest of our stay for the same room that we initially booked for. Just find somewhere else to book your room. There's a lot of other guest house in Chungking Mansion with better services. Basically, we were duped.
• Mark (10/5): Very good guest house, friendly personal staff - Excellent guest house for inexpensive stay in downtown Kowloon district of Hong Kong
• mt (4/5): 繁華街も港にも近く便利だが… - 立地的には繁華街も港にも近くとても便利な場所である。 しかしながら部屋はかなり狭く、清潔感もいまいち。 シャワーの水量は悪くないが、お湯は15秒程出るが、その後はほぼ水の様だった。
• クロちゃん (6/5): 便利！ - とにかく、町の中心で、どこへ行くのも便利です。 部屋は清潔で、深夜着（03：30着）にも対応してくれました。 重慶マンションの中　ということで少々不安でしたが、 全く大丈夫でした。
• Tzuyao (8/5): 適合175公分以下的男性居住 - 飯店位置很好，房間也整理得很乾淨，服務人員和善，以同類型且同價位的飯店來說，是相當不錯的選擇。但飯店所屬的建築物內，商店複雜且人數眾多，電梯等待時間較長，對於戒心比較重的旅客要有心理準備。還有身高高於175以上的旅客床會不夠大。但整體來說很滿意。
• Lulu Stella (4/5): Mini kleines Zimmer in unangenehmer Umgebung. - Als ich das Zimmer das erste Mal gesehen habe war ich wirklich geschockt, denn es war anders und viel kleiner als auf den Fotos. Auch die ganze Umgebung (Chungking Mansions) ist sehr anstrengend und dubios. Zur Sauberkeit kann man sagen, dass es auch nur ok war. Wir hatten eine tote Kakerlake unter dem Bett, einen Käfer im Badezimmer und auch die Handtücher waren semi sauber. Die Laken und Kissen an sich schienen sauber. Die Zimmer waren so klein, dass man sich nicht wirklich darin normal bewegen konnte, so etwas habe ich vorher noch nie gesehen. Die Lage des Guesthouses ist zentral, ich würde jedoch in Zukunft lieber mehr zahlen für ein Hotel. Wir durften nicht ein mal unsere Koffer nach Checkout irgendwo abstellen, sondern mussten da Zimmer für einige Extrastunden buchen, um das zu tun. Hier wurden uns auch teils andere Preise genannt und alles an sich war nicht gästefreundlich. Ich würde das Guesthouse nur Travellern mit den geringsten Ansprüchen überlassen.
• ceejayallen (6/5): A Rabbit Hutch - I arrived at the hotel at 1100 on 14 September 2016 only to find that my single room was not available. The reason; my credit card was not acceptable to the management because it was due to expire at the end of October. I retorted that the card was valid for a further six weeks, but the manageress was not interested. She then offered me a double room for $HK300, $HK80 more than the room I had booked. If that was a double room I'd hate to have been in a single; it was quite literally six feet by six feet including the en suite toilet! The hotel is part of a large complex, and none of the rooms (as far as I could tell) has any windows. Not the place for more than one night! On the upside, the room was spotlessly clean, everything worked, and the free wifi signal was the strongest I've encountered in a hotel. The are no meals with the room, but the ground floor of Chung King Mansions is taken up with small shops and eateries.
• paulj0rgeb (6/5): Nice place to stay. However.... - Room was good, clean and like other budget hostels in HK, small. The lady whose taking care of the room is accommodating, however she, and her husband, collected the payment for the hotel which I believed that has been collected by credit already. The location is great for exploring the city and is located at the Tsim Sha Tsui's busy Nathan road and MTR. Downside for the hotel is the location which took me around 1 hour to find the building and the hotel itself. The hotel is also masked in by Indian/Pakistani food stalls, which contributes to the overall stay "factor" for me. Will definitely stay again, but I recommend to stay in Mongkok.
• tigerpaw69 (8/5): Good value for money in Hong Kong - The room was very clean, host and staff were helpful and friendly. The room was tiny and had no windows, but apparently that's to be expected in Kong Kong. Location central and convenient, although the block seemed a bit dodgy... Altogether, good value for money for Hong Kong!
• lekleking (6/5): clean guest house, dirty building - It was easy to find Chunking mansion, but not so easy to figure out how to get up there. The bottom floors are a sort of market and some areas are very dirty- I almost slipped and fell in literal crap. Maple Leaf itself is very clean and friendly- very small and basic accommodation, and good location. I would have paid a little extra for easier access and avoiding being harassed by people on the first floor.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - 您將會得到您所支付的 跟預定的房間不一樣， 還被店員推銷多增40hk的房型 廁所位置小，衛浴用品不足
• Blitzen123 (8/5): Great if your looking for location. Very basic - This was a great place to stay for a solo traveller. It has great wifi connection and the woman running it is brilliant. There's a bus straight to and from the airport. Expect to be overwhelmed by the lads out the front. Just tell them you've already booked and PAID.... Make sure you know the BLOCK when you arrive (E) because no one knows the name of the guest house but they know the blocks.... Walk in through the front entrance turn right then turn immediate left at your next passageway... its the lift at the end on your right. If you are clostrophibic in anyway don't stay there. But it is very central.
• ChaDitz (8/5): good and peaceful - The room is clean and cosy since the owner really clean up the room everyday. She's very accommodating and friendly. If you need anything, she's very welcome to assist us on our needs. She offers less amount of Disneyland and Oceanpark tickets also. Though the bad thing in here is that, this hostel is located in Chongking Mansion which is very scary due to people selling downstairs. :( This was our first trip in HK with my family and I will say that I will recommend this hostel to everyone for its excellent service but just be careful for the people downstairs selling stuffs or something (just simply ignore them!)
• supin (8/5): ห้องเล็กเล็กๆ สะอาด เงียบ ผู้จัดการอัธยาศัยดีค่ะ - โรงแรมใกล้สถานี MTR แหล่งช๊อปปิ้ง แหล่งท่องเที่ยว เดินทางสะดวกปลอดภัย รอบๆมีร้านอาหารอร่อยมากมาย ครั้งนี้เป็นครั้งที่สองที่เข้าพัก ในโอกาสต่อไปจะชวนเพื่อนมาอีก
• 1213224931 (10/5): Amazing place, good location for exploring the city. - “Very clean Very helpful staff Comfortable bed Space in guests refrigerator Drinking water supplied. I really like the place . The owner was very friendly and the room was very clean! Very centric! We were able to walk to the harbor or the city in 15 min! Amazing location.
• kirsttimms29 (6/5): Not as advertised - The room was extremely small. I understand this is common in Hong Kong. It was advertised with a fridge but this wasnt in the room. It very hard to find the entry to the guest house which was on the 12th floor acessing the elevator inside a market place which is normally very busy. I wouldnt recommend this place to solo woman travellers due to having to go through the market each time. The one positive was the lady at the desk was very friendly and informative.
• Verified traveler (8/5): 狭いながらも安くて便利な立地。旅慣れた人が集うホテル。 - このホテルの入っている重慶マンションは香港観光の中心にあって交通至便な場所です。 ただし、このビルに入ってからがかなり混沌・雑然としていて、ホテルを探し出すのに一苦労しますので、建物内の人に場所を尋ねた方が早くて楽でしょう。 また、受付に人は常駐していないので、内線電話で呼び出してチェックインする形になります。 部屋は極めてミニマムで、ほぼ部屋いっぱいにベッドが置いてあって、トイレとシャワーに洗面の空間がかろうじて付帯しているような感じです。 そのため、慣れないと一瞬驚きますが、室内は清潔に整えられていて、静かで落ち着いた滞在ができました。 ビルの１階には両替商，飲食店やミニマート的な小売店があるのも便利かと思います。 狭いながらも、ホテルの高い香港にあって、格安で便利な立地なので、旅慣れた旅行者が集うホテルなのだと思います。
• martinlizard (10/5): Small but good - This is by far the smallest room i ever slept . Single room as big as double bed ..... Guesthouse was not easy to find , well hidden in an "indian" shopping mall . But would def. stay there again because of these 3 words : location + price + cleanliness. And brother and sister running the spot were friendly and helpful.
• SaurabhatMumbai (6/5): Decent Option - The hotel is managed by a helpful lady who really takes care of all the guests. The rooms are small as are all the other options in Hong Kong in budget category. The hotel is on the main road situated in a shopping complex and ideal for solo/male travellers. Not the best option for couples though.
• Len (6/5): Very small for two, even after upgrading to larger - Very small for two, even after upgrading to larger room. Hosts are very helpful and keep the place very clean. Good location, except for those obnoxious touts.
• estuary (2/5): CON ARTIST - We arrived at 10:30 in the evening and the owner is there. She said that my card was invalid because she tried to claim the "No Show" fee (we sent an email when we arrived at the airport at 8:30). She offers another room because according to her, our room is small and add 150hkd. Me: Just give us the key to the room and we'll see if we'll upgrade tomorrow. Owner: Tomorrow is fully booked. Me: We have limited budget. I can only pay the amount initially agreed. Owner: You can pay tomorrow. Me: We are so hungry and we have a child with us so please let us leave our bags and let us eat dinner. Owner: The room is so small. The room for you is downstairs. Lots of noisy Indians, you have a baby, I want that you can rest. Me: I am aware that the room and bed is small so please we want to rest now. (looking back, I should have bluffed this woman that I'll report her to the guard below or cancelled it on the spot.) Owner: Okay, just add 50hkd (total of 550hkd) and I'll give you the room, tomorrow you transfer to a bigger room. Room 32 will checkout tomorrow. We were able to eat our dinner at 11:15. She also asked about our schedule the next day not because she's interested with our itinerary but she is scheming to give our room to others while we are away. (this can be explained by the luggages seen by the other travellers who reviewed this guesthouse). The husband told me to agree with the owner's offer so we can already rest and eat. So she gave us room 28 and she pointed that we'll transfer to room 32 the next day. She instructed us to leave our bags and key inside the room so that they can transfer it when we leave. The following day, we decided to stay in the current room because we're already settled. So, I called her. Me: Good morning, Ma'am. We'll just stay in our current room, no need to transfer. Owner: Of course, I gave you a big room. If you want to stay in that room, you have to pay 400hkd. Me: But you said we'll move to room 32? Owner: I told you, the room is small. So I just hung up the phone and fixed our things. When we arrived in the evening, she wasn't in the reception, I still have to call her to as where is our new room. We waited for another 30 minutes (really annoying) then her husband arrived. The husband has a few luggages with him, put in one of the rooms then lead us downstairs to Cynthia's Inn (10th floor). Smelly and dirty. The owners of the guesthouse is worse than the shady people on the first floor. She did not issue any receipt and tries to get away by dismissing you immediately or pretend that you did not understand what she said. I think she subcontracted our accommodation to a cheaper hostel. NEVER AGAIN.
• Nidhogg003 (2/5): How the hell is this rated as very good on tripadvisor?? - This is my first time that a good reviewed place on tripadvisor let me down. I am not racist but the area this place is located is really dodgy full of Indians and other foreigners, most of which are constantly offering services and goods, especially at night. Access to this place is horrible with a single small slow lift used by a good quantity of people. The room itself was small and almost nothing was provided except water and WiFi. It wasn't expensive but due to the below rating we expected better,
