Rooms are very clean and quite small though but i'm comfortable with the size of it. Has a safe, mini fridge, basic amenities but the... More

The rooms are the smallest I have ever seen in a hotel, but when you are prepared for that -it is no problem! I absolutely enjoyed my stay here for 1 week! The location is absolutely perfect, near the big Nathan Road that is close to attractions such as Ladies Market and also this place is not too far from... More

The location of this hotel is in Yaumatei which is one of the more genuine and interesting parts of the peninsula and a little off the tourist beat which is fine. A couple of good tea shops on the street and the area is great for industrial catering supply stores. The Hotel itself had fairly competant staff who were polite... More

This hotel definitely fulfills the basics - the rooms are tiny, but clean and fairly comfortable and if your aim is decent place to sleep while spending most of your time outdoors, I can definitely recommend Silka - though there is definitely no sea view! There is a shuttle that goes directly to the hotel from the airport, which is... More

Rooms are very small, around 10sqm (110 sq/feet) yet the botel is pretty expensive. There is only 2 non smoking floors. All these rooms were already taken so we were given a smoking room. Problem was our room didn't have a large bed so we had to sleep separated in single beds. Room was dated, smelled bad, window was dirty.... More

The hotel was a lot better this time around than the last time. I have always liked this part of Hong Kong since it is so much more authentic. Around the corner are numerous street restaurants where you can get a very good feed for a very cheap price. It is also next to the Temple Street Night Markets, which... More
