myself and my partner stayed at this hotel for a week, and when we booked the hotel through expedia we didnt know where the location of it was as we hadnt been to hong kong before, when we arrived the hotel was excellant only been built since 2004, the lobby was full of mable and the doormen were really attentive, we choose a deluxe room and the standard was high, the hotel was right across the road from the happy valley race course, taxis are cheap in hong kong so getting around was easy and the place felt safe, i would definately recommend this hotel

this is the nicest hotel i've stayed in - i usually stay in hotels that are rated 2-3stars and i think the total charge was £350 for 8 days

the hotel is well located - on a tram line - you'd have to catch a tram to happy vally then one to central if you wished to use the tram but lots of buses pas this hotel though and the staff are more than happy to help out with taxis etc.

The hotel is in Wan chai but the nearest tube stop (Times square) is a nice 10 min walk away.

A taxi from hong kong station to the hotel was 50hk$ including luggage charge. I paid for the standard room and was offered the option upon checking in of taking the deluxe room with breakfast for my partner and i and broadband for the duration. i declined. the cost was 225hk$ each

The room was small but clean with plenty for space for clothes. the beds were hard but had duvets. the bathroom was spotless and the pressure on the shower was superb and hot.

You may read on some reviews of this hotel stating that the standard rooms have a view of the graveyard - sick as it may sound the view was lovely and the graveyard is pretty and you can see into the hills - which are lush and green.

Over all i could not fault this hotel, even before i arived i had a query which was responded by email from the general manager within 1 hour! keep up the good work

The Cosmopolitan was recommended to us by a friend who grew up in Hong Kong and felt that it was a good central point for us to see Hong Kong in 3 days.
She was right!- We had some of the tourist highlights including the peak tram and the parks close by and good access to public transport (which we found to be very reliable).
The first thing to point out is that space is very much at a premium here,and as such, the family room we had booked would have comfortably slept a small family of woodlouse.
Having returned to reception to complain that the room would simply not fit a family of 4 in, I was told to return to the room and wait with my husband whilest she tried to find something with an extra 10 inches!
I found my husband in a state of mild shock as during my absence my 4 year old daughter had found a used condom on the floor in our room.
She had been scrabbling around on the floor behind the full length curtains and emerged proudly holding it aloft.
The cleaner who was on the landing close by was very upset-but not as upset as us!!
I returned to reception and was quite alarmed by the receptionists lack of horror/response.
However, in her defence,she obviously made a phone call to the manager, as within 5 minutes we were being escorted to a suite.
We received a large bowl of fruit and phone calls from the manager, the general manager, the managers manager and the general managers managers big brother.
Overall the stay turned out to be enjoyable,mainly because of my daughters actions and us being moved out of the shoe box.
The hotel is in a good spot and although the cleanliness is below par, on the whole it turned out to be what we needed for our flying visit.
If you happen to book a suite, they are huge,comfortable, have asmall kitchen and great views of the Happy Valley race course.(Race meetings are on a wed night but we couldn't go as no under 18's are allowed.)
Top tip for a good day out and to see something a bit different of Hong Kong Island, is a trip to Stanley market on a double decker bus.

Didnt expect much from the Cosmopolitan, but was plesantly surprised with the hotel. I think its a 3.5 star property and the service was efficient and quick. I typically ask for something from housekeeping and see how long it takes and in both occassions, I got what I wanted within 5 minutes!
So overall its a good choice if one is looking for good value for money and one wants to stay on the island rather than Kowloon.
However, if you are in HK for work and need to get to the office in the morning, you need to have asked the hotel staff to organize a cab for you well in advance. I stood on the curb for a good half hour before I could flag down a cab. So be prepared!
Otherwise, its a good choice. Enjoy Hong Kong!
