The hype

Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Incredible value for the square footage (rooms are huge for HK)
- Direct connection to Tsuen Wan West MTR and multiple malls
- Stunning Victoria Harbour views from high floors in Tower 2
Snel Overzicht: A skyscraper giant that delivers 5-star views with 3-star maintenance and a lobby that feels like a busy train station.
Beoordeeld door @_miszviaje: I spent my evening just floating here, looking up at the lights. The way the towers frame the sky is incredible. It’s not a quiet nature retreat, but if you love that big city energy while you swim, this spot is honestly unforgettable.

Reality check
The 'moldy smell' and 'cigarette smoke' in non-smoking rooms are frequent complaints, along with worn-out carpets.
- You need space for a family of 3-4 without booking two rooms
- You prioritize a high-floor view over luxury service
- You love having direct access to Don Don Donki and local food
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
6.5
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Daily tidying happens, but deep cleaning (dusting vents, under beds) is often missed.
- Bathroom hygiene: Grout mold and slow drainage are common complaints. Check the toilet seat stability.
- Maintenance: Aging infrastructure. Peeling wallpaper, scuffed furniture, and loose fixtures are standard in Tower 1.
- Linens & towels: Clean but can feel worn/thin. Bedding sometimes feels 'damp' due to humidity control issues.
- Odors & scents: The biggest offender. Musty hallway smells and stale smoke in rooms are frequent issues.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is the pool open?
The outdoor infinity pool is currently closed for seasonal maintenance (since Dec 2025). The indoor pool remains open but check specific hours.
How bad is the check-in line?
It can be severe. Arrive before 3 PM or late evening to avoid the 45-minute rush hour crush.
Is it close to Disneyland?
Yes, it's a convenient base. About a 15-20 minute taxi ride or a straightforward MTR connection.
Do they take a deposit?
Yes, HKD 500 per stay. They are strict about physical credit cards or cash; debit cards are often rejected.
Is the location too far from Central?
It's about 30-35 minutes by MTR (Tuen Ma Line to Nam Cheong, then Tung Chung Line). Not 'central', but very connected.
Can I request a non-smoking room?
You can, but enforcement is weak. Many 'non-smoking' rooms still have lingering smoke smells.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
Use the 'Nina Communal' on the 10th floor if you're a long-stay guest for a better lounge vibe.
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast and hit the local 'cha chaan tengs' in Tsuen Wan for better food at 1/4 the price.
- ✨
The 41st-floor sky bridge connects the towers and offers a free panoramic view spot.
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The 'fastest lift in HK' claim means your ears will pop every time you go to your room.
💡The bathroom glass is 'see-through' in many rooms (with blinds), which can be awkward for friends traveling together.
💡Housekeeping can be hit-or-miss with replenishing water and towels.
💡The AC controls in some rooms are ancient knobs that offer only 'freezing' or 'off'.
💡You might share the elevator with residents living in the long-stay serviced apartments.
