The Salisbury YMCA of Hong Kong Reviews

The Salisbury YMCA has a fantastic location — right next to the harbour and a short walk from the Star Ferry and MTR. The staff were friendly and everything was clean, but the building and rooms are a bit old-fashioned. It’s also a bit pricey for what it offers, but then again, Hong Kong in general is expensive. Overall, a convenient and reliable place to stay if you want to be in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui.

It’s a bit Spartan, but the location and the views from some rooms cannot be beaten. Staff is polite and helpful. Gym and pool a bit worn but perfectly functional. View from my room was outstanding

The staff are helpful and professional. There are two room service staff who are exceptionally pleasant and helpful. Location is perfect as I am here for business whilst my family is here on holiday. Here is a photo of the view from the laundry room window.

Was upgraded to a suite with a marvellous harbour view. However, the sofa smelled a little bit mouldy. The location was good and convenient as the MTR station is just right beside the hotel, making travelling very easy.. Staff are also friendly.

Excellent location in TST, conveniently located near to 2 MTR lines, minutes walking distance to bus stops where you can take the A21 or A25 buses to HKIA, as well as to the Star Ferries terminal to cross to HK Island. Staff were courteous and patient in giving explanations. Greatly appreciate the free room upgrade. I enjoyed the fitness centre facility as well, do note you need a swimming cap to use the swimming pool. Overall a pleasant stay.

The hotel is very well located, impeccably clean, with attentive staff and an excellent breakfast. Highly recommended.

It’s been a long time since I’ve stayed at the ymca. This conveniently located hotel still provides a very comfortable overnight stay in the heart of Kowloon with great access to public transport and restaurant options. The staff is polite and helpful. Finally, the indoor lap pool is a great way to relax after a day of sightseeing. We’ll definitely be coming back.

The hotel is located in some of the best real estate of Kowloon. Very pristine view of the Harbour from the Harbour view room. But the beds are nasty if you are a very heavy person or have back problems.

The location is excellent! It's perfect for exploring and enjoying the Tsim Sha Tsui area. If you're coming from the airport, take bus A21 directly to Middle Road Station, and it's just a few minutes' walk from there. The room was quite clean. The only issue we encountered was a clogged toilet drain in our room, but after we reported it, they promptly arranged for someone to fix it. Soundproofing, however, was poor; we could constantly hear doors opening and closing in the hallway. Overall, the service attitude during our stay felt rather impersonal. While not overly warm, it wasn't rude either – perhaps Hongkongers tend to maintain a professional distance. (However, we did have one unpleasant encounter: a middle-aged concierge, approximately 40 years old, with a round head, who was standing behind the counter. The moment he heard us speaking Mandarin, his expression visibly changed, and he rolled his eyes. This was the only eye-roll we received during our entire trip to Hong Kong 🙄. In contrast, the concierge staff working outside the counter were extremely friendly!) Other than that, there's nothing particularly noteworthy. The price was reasonable, offering great value for money given its prime location. Do note that rooms don't come with toiletries or complimentary water, so you'll need to bring your own. Conveniently, the H2 bus stop is right downstairs on the roadside. It's also very close to K11, Harbour City, Avenue of Stars, and Chungking Mansions.

Got upgraded at the desk to a harbour view suite. Room was lovely and an amazing view. Only small issue was shower but didn’t bother us too much. Front desk very helpful and allowed us to store our luggage. Best location in TST

Very good location, but they need to enhance the cleaning.

We booked a sea-view room with twin beds. The location is superb – it's right across the street from Victoria Harbour, next to The Peninsula Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong Space Museum is also just across the street. The MTR station is only a three-minute walk away, and there are many excellent local cha chaan tengs nearby. Considering its prime location, the price was actually quite reasonable; The Peninsula Hong Kong next door was double the price during our stay. The hotel's internal facilities are standard but clean. However, perhaps reflecting Hong Kong's environmental initiatives, rooms are only cleaned every three days instead of daily. They provide one adapter, but if you have multiple devices, it's advisable to bring or buy an extra one. The staff were generally friendly, though their service quality could be a bit hit-or-miss. Don't bother with breakfast at the hotel; the nearby cha chaan tengs offer a fantastic variety, and it's much better to sleep in and then enjoy a leisurely meal there!

Hotel staffs are friendly and helpful. Although it's raining, but hotel does provide free raincoats. Location is near to restaurants, new K11 mall, convenient marts, the famous 重庆大厦, 星光大道 and the million dollars views of the harbour. The hotel restaurant food is amazing. Vegetables & fruits are fresh.

We loved the hotel! The location is amazing, cloth to the metro and to several attractions. The room was great on a high floor with a partial view to the harbour. Breakfast was generous and tasty, both western and Chinese. We didn’t feel the hotel׳s renovations at all. The room was very quiet and the shower had good stream of water. We will definitely come back!
