Latest Reviews for Hong Kong Hotels

Shama Island North Hong Kong
4.2/5213 Reviews
North Point and Quarry Bay
The hotel is quite central in location. There’s Starbucks next to it. However there are a lot of stairs and is not accessible to individuals who could use ramps, like travellers with large suitcases or disabled. There’s steps leading to the check-in lounge, steps to go up to the lifts and from the lifts on each floor to the rooms. The room is clean and of a good size. However, mine is right next to the main road and is very noisy. At night, there’s a low ringing noise that came in every 10s - I couldn’t get a good night sleep at all. The housekeeping is ok - but they missed some items after they cleaned up the room - they did not replenish the slippers, the toothbrushes, and the bath essentials. One of the towels had a lipstick mark on it. I had to go to the front desk to get them, but the front desk is very helpful. On the last day when I wanted to check out, the front desk personnel is missing and I had to wait about 15min for the person to return.

The front desk clerks are polite and explain in detail. The rooms are neat and tidy, and there are cooking utensils for simple self-cooking. There are also a large number of shops nearby to buy daily necessities during the day, and there are also many restaurants at night. It is a good place for a short break.
